Oh, I just wanted to check to see whether you got that dinner worked out.

I understand that Brockmore can't come.

No, I know he's going to be gone on 24th.

I know he is.

And the Louises and the...

Maybe we'll leave it at 10.

Maybe 10 is a little better than 12 anyway.

And I'm sure all the others can come.

We're going to have to loosen it because now it's about to be all stops.

She would like to see it.

She was delighted.

It doesn't matter who's there.

She was very excited.

That's the way she is.

I wanted to, you know, we had promised.

I told her one time something.

I wrote to her.

I don't know if you see her.

So that takes care of that.

Sometimes when you have a minute, you know, uh, Rocky has made some changes in the book.

Because he's got a rifle, and it's awful sometimes.

And he sent us some pictures of it.

um i don't care what i want to say but i'm not pulling up i mean i'm not going to worry about any ceremony just put it off and done if i have it

Well, should I show the pictures that redone the past, if you think it's better?

Well, if it's better, why not?

Oh, I thought you said he redone the pictures of it.

No, he wants to redo it.

No, I think he has it, but I don't know.

He says the same thing, but he just wants to be sure it'll be all right.

Oh, let me look at the picture.

I thought you said a year ago.

Well, he has been working with me.

He sent pictures in.

He still got them?

No.

And he came in and took one of the copies from me as well.

I think it looks like he approved it.

To me, I already did.

Okay.

And so Kendall called, and he had came, you know, from Turkey that time.

Yeah.

And, well, I hadn't seen him in a while.

Well, that's it.

That's it.

We didn't.

How should we know?

Yes.

And he's coming.

He said that he talked with the Prime Minister and they were talking about business and so forth and the Prime Minister probably

Don had sent a group of people and they'd gone over to try to figure out a way of getting into business over there to get their dollars out of Pepsi.

And he said that the thing that all their people came up with was the best place really should be in California or Florida, not our country, because they have excellent beaches.

But also, what they really need is to get some of them growing the vegetables and the fruits that everybody here wants.

And there's been a lot of A.I.D.

stuff over here.

He thinks that he's sent a couple of science-smart big climbers over, you know, or whatever.

Like for instance, our friend out in California, that guy.

That was in Georgia.

Oh, there's that other one.

That's fine.

You must have.

I don't think it was that one.

Was I right?

Was I wrong?

But he just said that he might bring my phone if he wanted it.

He knows that it's a premise of my attention, so he wanted you to know about it.

And of course, they'd have to use Pan Am or somebody to fly it, because what rules them out is when they go from one border to the other, they just stop so much that things don't hold up.

That's all.

And he could be an activist, and I can speak Turkish, but we have no understanding of talking to the Prime Minister about a problem like that.

We have no imagination for it.

He's the one that put down for a gift from his attorney.

He carried the insurance for all three of us.

I think it was me on that family list.

No, that was just me.

He took you on this list then.

Yeah.

We bought as many things as we could carry.

I know, there's a lot of them.

Carnival has a lot of things.

There's a lot of little things.

I couldn't agree more and I thought we should have something.

He's good, never ask.

Can we send something to Reboso?

We've had air con ops in the mountains.

We've had them all, both cars.

And see, people talk about they're supposed to have them both cars, and they've gone away for it.

Oh, she already has them.

She's got both cars.

She's got two.

Yeah, she's the oldest.

She's got a lot of Chinese stuff.

I really think the little stuff is not awesome.

It's just bad.

I haven't seen here so I'm sure they're just like the ones I bought.

And I wish I hadn't bought a couple of them.

They're really awesome.

They're very nice.

I'll look over the list for too long, because I've got to get some dinners out of the way first.

Okay, we have dinner this way.

Oh, the one next to you is the Jordan 7.

Why is it not coming?

How many?

Well, we haven't found any positions yet.

Do you want about 75 or 80 people?

Gives us a chance to invite some of the other guys who might be contributors and, you know, a few different classes.

Yeah, yeah.

It's made a nice dinner.

It's no harm, I suppose.

Because you can't work at a dinner like that anyway.

Oh, I never work at a dinner like that.

I just talk to the guy on the right one way or the other and shake hands with the others.

That's all we ever do.

That's right.

So we left it with some people and that might do it.

It's a small but chummy dinner.

It's already been longer than a lot of others.

Uh, this way we can get in even some younger, so we wouldn't get to a normal state dentist if they're young and haven't got money.

I'd get them for other people, but I think we'll get them on our own.

All right, well, thank you.

How was New York?

Oh, fine.

Was the weather nice there?

Very nice, yeah.

Everybody was nice.

Good.

You know, those, uh, George Bush told me about that horrible thing.

A man accosted her and took his mask off and showed himself.

She rushed to the drugstore screaming and asked for a drug.

He didn't say what she was, but you know there are all the Jews around there.

He said, give that a close look.

She said, I can help you.

He wouldn't have her again.

There was some 17-year-old who was there, and I gave her a dime.

She called her mother, and her mother came over.

And she came home in this terribly shitty, but New York City was just so bad and depraved and horrible.

She was unbelievable.

New York is finished.

And when you see this Dan Lindsey running, saying he wants to run, but he knows all the problems.

I think that that one is finished.

Listen to that.

Oh, that's a two-lock and a roller.

We used to walk.

I used to walk many times.

We'd walk up and down Madison about 30 o'clock on every Sunday.

Nobody heard.

I walked alone.

When we did the campaign office, I always walked 1 3rd and 1 5th Street.

I was up there in the back.

You said you'd just gotten work recently.

Yeah.

I had a funny story.

There'd been a lot of robberies in her building and stuff.

It's just very bad.

I can't think of a good story about that, though.
