Well, I was wondering if Bob, I've got a new chapter now, the opening at 6 o'clock.
Julie's late.
I don't know.
She doesn't get to the end until 5.30, 5.35.
So she won't be in here until probably 6, 6.30.
Oh, yes, may not.
I was thinking about writing that chapter.
Maybe not.
Probably.
She didn't hear a little bit of it.
Sorry.
I don't know.
It just looks great.
That's a good change.
How did you already talk to the pastor?
He must have been thrilled that you liked him.
He was like a little boy.
He just couldn't wait.
Well, it's a great, great thing.
And he knows it.
It's beautiful inside.
And he said, you've just been great.
He just shows you now and then how to make a fine for some of them.
He appreciates it and figures you're doing them a favor and you're doing you a favor.
A lot of people figure that we're doing them a favor.
I mean, they're doing us a favor.
The government a favor by taking the job, so that helps.
He feels he's proud.
He's proud and he's the ambassador and he knows we stuck by him.
He was under the heat, too.
And we don't have plenty.
We really don't.
We feel like we're some, but not many.
And that is .
That's the design and .
Well, what do you think, though, that we ought to do then about it?
Well, why don't you stay here and come over then there.
I just planned it.
We'll save some other things that won't.
Most things that come through and go through are moving.
I know they're open before.
But what do you mean, he had a gift for you?
Yes.
All right, bye.
