[0:24] Here. [0:24] Now, let's look out and get it. [0:25] Well, I must say, going back to the 60s, and Luter, and that kind of thing, [0:27] All the years since then and now, I think one of the best times I've had was when he cracked his ribs. [0:38] But he had three fractures in his arm. [0:39] Oh, boy, yes. [0:39] Yeah, yeah, yeah. [0:40] I remember that was a murderous time. [0:49] Well, I must say, you really got called down on us. [0:50] I was out of my house. [0:54] I almost died. [0:55] I can't hold it. [0:56] But you were sitting in my chair and you carried on for another hour with me. [0:58] I don't know. [0:59] I never had a student do anything like that again. [1:01] Well, you've just been a Taurus friend. [1:06] You've been a great help to Bob. [1:08] He's just got it. [1:12] He belongs inside. [1:16] That's his... [1:18] That's his father. [1:34] He's still a strong man. [1:35] He's around the corner. [1:35] He's got to get through after this year and he can start running. [1:37] He must not lose this year. [1:37] That's the main thing. [1:38] Next year, he's ready. [1:38] Right at this age. [1:39] He's a health center. [1:40] Well, I do remember that night you gave me the oldest one. [1:58] I don't know if you want to draw a ball for me. [1:59] Have you got an old one? [1:59] No, I never have. [2:00] It's just gold, by the way. [2:03] Thank you very much. [2:29] What about children? [2:38] All right, I'll get it. [2:41] I'll be on the same track.
