[0:08] She doesn't get to the end until 5.30, 5.35. [0:11] So she won't be in here until probably 6, 6.30. [0:15] Oh, yes, may not. [0:19] I was thinking about writing that chapter. [0:24] Maybe not. [0:25] Probably. [0:26] She didn't hear a little bit of it. [0:27] Sorry. [0:40] I don't know. [0:46] It just looks great. [0:52] That's a good change. [0:53] How did you already talk to the pastor? [1:00] He must have been thrilled that you liked him. [1:05] He was like a little boy. [1:06] He just couldn't wait. [1:07] Well, it's a great, great thing. [1:08] And he knows it. [1:09] It's beautiful inside. [1:11] And he said, you've just been great. [1:15] He just shows you now and then how to make a fine for some of them. [1:18] He appreciates it and figures you're doing them a favor and you're doing you a favor. [1:23] A lot of people figure that we're doing them a favor. [1:26] I mean, they're doing us a favor. [1:28] The government a favor by taking the job, so that helps. [1:32] He feels he's proud. [1:33] He's proud and he's the ambassador and he knows we stuck by him. [1:37] He was under the heat, too. [1:42] And we don't have plenty. [1:44] We really don't. [1:45] We feel like we're some, but not many. [1:49] And that is . [1:50] That's the design and . [1:53] Well, what do you think, though, that we ought to do then about it? [2:01] Well, why don't you stay here and come over then there. [2:08] I just planned it. [2:12] We'll save some other things that won't. [2:20] Most things that come through and go through are moving. [2:35] I know they're open before. [2:41] But what do you mean, he had a gift for you? [2:45] Yes. [2:46] All right, bye.
