[1:03] if it doesn't go too long, who's in charge of that? [1:25] I mean, I could, or is that supposed to sort of jackass along for a couple of hours? [1:27] It should be long, so. [1:27] We, I know it's hard to keep you here. [1:28] You're gonna have to, you're gonna have to say something the other way or close it out and then I'll tell them to have a good night and leave. [1:39] Sorry. [2:04] Dale, I just want Clark not to set it up that they sit down and have a talk. [2:05] No. [2:05] It's not. [2:05] We've got to get there. [2:06] For example, if anybody planned this, can we give them time? [2:07] Yes, Franklin meant medallions. [2:08] Franklin meant medallions, sir. [2:10] They're nice. [2:29] Yeah. [2:29] Yeah. [2:29] And they're a little unusual. [2:30] We don't have a lot of them. [2:31] Some of them do. [2:59] run the schedule quite as tight, even though it is after, you know, sort of an end. [3:19] And as we do a day like this, you know what I mean, when you just go bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and have to go right over the reception, it's a little bit, okay, a little bit harder. [3:23] I think the looser schedule is first. [3:24] I think it's more in our interest. [3:25] And, I don't know, I guess we had to add quite a few things. [3:26] I'm just not going to complain. [3:27] I just started. [3:39] I just don't like it. [3:40] I scheduled where I had to. [3:40] I had to do it with the fire managers and grab myself up and go and talk to my chairweaver. [3:42] You know, it's just a little bit too much at the end of the day. [3:43] You wear it down and it's very hard to come back the next day and see you again. [3:59] I think it's better big ones. [4:18] Well, yeah. [4:19] And the way to avoid it is to spread them out a little more. [4:20] So we don't pack them all at once. [4:21] Like this, we already really packed every one of us, right? [4:22] We don't do this many times. [4:22] And we can cut them down. [4:23] We can cut them down. [4:23] We can cut them down. [4:24] We can cut them down. [4:24] We can cut them down. [4:25] We can cut them down. [4:25] We can cut them down. [4:26] Yeah. [4:50] Yeah. [4:50] Yeah. [4:50] Yeah. [4:51] Yeah. [4:51] Yeah. [4:51] It's just a four, son.
