[0:12] And he told me that it was prostrate after the view that, uh, that he had voted for the Senate. [0:17] Actually, what I was trying to do, though, was sort of make it appear that you and all the other guys, I mean, all of you, you know, you were moving around there. [0:22] In fact, I know that every paper that comes in, if there wasn't a thing they mentioned, you haven't done it. [0:28] Not one thing. [0:30] Well, but to know, Bill, that's what they want to know. [0:35] And so don't you worry about a waste of my time, but I just wanted you to be sure that you and Carlos are interested. [0:41] I was perfectly aware of that. [0:42] I had to leave a little bit. [0:45] You want to leave? [0:50] I don't. [0:51] You, it's a shame. [0:52] It's a shame. [0:54] Yeah. [0:55] Well, don't you worry about that. [0:56] I'm going to tell the boys I appreciate what they're doing, okay? [0:59] Come in for a minute. [1:07] You want to leave? [1:13] I don't know. [1:13] It's a shame. [1:14] It's a shame. [1:16] Yeah. [1:17] Well, don't you worry about that. [1:18] I'm going to tell the boys I appreciate what they're doing, okay? [1:21] Come in for a minute.
