I want you to see Tower today before we leave.
The reason is, I think, Connelly, I think this thing's going to break very soon.
And tell him that I just had breakfast with Connelly's at the farm.
And don't let him give you any of that yapping people all about it, because this deal is one that Connelly's put together, and I know it's at the highest level.
OK. Bye.
