[2:00] We were very interested in your review.
[2:03] Oh, yeah.
[2:04] I didn't know that.
[2:05] I heard in the internet that there were dealers who were so nasty.
[2:08] I knew.
[2:09] When they came here, I didn't know that.
[2:11] I didn't know that either.
[2:14] I was curious.
[2:16] I knew.
[2:17] But it doesn't matter about once or twice.
[2:22] But anyway, I mean, some of them didn't seem to be.
[2:27] Well, now, this is just two of those.
[2:28] They're in the dark.
[2:30] It's too bright.
[2:31] All the rest of them.
[2:31] I don't know.
[2:32] But did you see a new post?
[2:56] They made you the critic, and they said, uh, I'm reading by Richard M. Nixon.
[3:03] Really?
[3:04] Yes, I am.
[3:05] I'm on the page.
[3:06] This was down here, down here.
[3:08] Yeah.
[3:09] And so, consequently, you agreed to theater history.
[3:14] Then it was, uh, now they did her Tony Award before her, uh, before I re-opened.
[3:20] Really?
[3:21] When she was here,
[3:23] Her, when I saw the play, the music was like, her voice was awful shocked, you know, she'd heard it on the road for hours.
[3:31] And I wondered maybe if her voice had a chance, and I had never heard it, you know, anyways, when I was in that movie theater show.
[3:38] But she, she, when I, then I, we saw her after this night of the play.
[3:45] And she said script chair, which of course she was or not, but I imagine that she had me dressed in it.
[3:52] Yeah, that's what she was kind of thinking about.
[3:55] Well, it was beautiful.
[3:57] Yeah, it was beautiful.
[3:58] No, we hadn't been back to town.
[3:59] We hadn't done that.
[4:00] But my husband had a show opening tomorrow night.
[4:03] Oh, yeah.
[4:03] Oh, yeah.
[4:04] The same producers that produced the musicals.
[4:08] And applause, right?
[4:10] And applause, right.
[4:11] And applause, right.
[4:13] And applause, right.
[4:14] And applause, right.
[4:15] Well, you know, I mean, things that are, you know, interesting and cool and crazy and all that sort of thing.
[4:21] But, you know, certain things do happen to people, but they tend to go with the proper way.
[4:30] And I hope that, you know, the way it's changing and that the other folks are nice.
[4:36] The reason that I didn't see that your children do as well as clients, I said to these students,
[4:42] I think he's a fine actor, but the point is,
[5:10] I got an employee of that and an inside tiner and all that stuff.
[5:17] There's a place, Playboy, and I was like, I think that's what they want, is that we're going to put a ton of things we can't see.
[5:23] It doesn't look good.
[5:24] It's not just you.
[5:26] Some parents want their people to see all that, but they say, no, that's what you've got to run with, not that other kind of traction.
[5:34] Do you agree?
[5:35] Absolutely.
[5:35] That's a vertical idea of any project that we're working on.
[5:38] There's a bunch of pictures that I can follow that you can tell you can do.
[5:43] In general, it's going to be something with your family, too, something that I can be proud to say I'm going to do.
[5:49] But you might assume to be entertaining for adults, as well.
[5:53] Well, I saw one called, I don't know if you've read it, but it's a movie.
[6:00] It's called G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is... G-E-H-P, which is...
[6:42] So, that's where I started working.
[6:43] I'm not too old.
[6:44] So, I'm not too old.
[6:45] I'm not too old.
[6:46] So, I'm not too old.
[6:46] So, I'm not too old.
[6:48] So, I'm not too old.
[6:51] So, I'm not too old.
[6:52] So, I'm not too old.
[6:52] So, I'm not too old.
[6:53] So, I'm not too old.
[6:53] So, I'm not too old.
[6:54] So, I'm not too old.
[6:55] So, I'm not too old.
[6:56] So, I'm not too old.
[6:57] So, I'm not too old.
[6:58] So, I'm not too old.
[7:00] So, I'm not too old.
[7:00] So, I'm not too old.
[7:01] So, I'm not too old.
[7:02] So, I'm not too old.
[7:03] So, I'm not too old.
[7:03] So, I'm not too old.
[7:04] So, I'm not too old.
[7:05] So, I'm not too old.
[7:06] So, I'm not too old.
[7:07] So, I'm not too old.
[7:08] So, I'm not too old.
[7:08] So, I
[7:09] really American, had such pride in the way he handled it.
[7:14] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:16] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:18] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:21] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:28] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:31] And you are right, I'm not blind, and so am I.
[7:34] Um, going to Russia as part of the trade, that's hard.
[7:38] It's hard to realize that 23 years have passed since we saw the version of that little church down there, you know.
[7:45] It did.
[7:45] Well, I don't think it did.
[7:48] Uh, yeah.
[7:48] Uh, it went, uh...
[7:48] Uh, right next to, uh, a little old building.
[7:51] Right, right, a little church.
[7:53] Well, I can tell you something else.
[7:55] It was outstanding.
[7:56] You and, uh...
[7:59] I left San Diego to go to New York that night.
[8:03] Yeah.
[8:04] To see it for myself on the drive-in view.
[8:06] I'm dreaming of going to the city to do some painting pictures.
[8:39] We have to get a rerun of this.
[8:42] It still comes out.
[8:44] We don't have it.
[8:46] Does it have the thousand-thumb?
[8:48] Yes.
[8:48] Well, it's probably not as great as the 16-millimeter comic book.
[8:51] They have the 16-millimeter now.
[8:52] We have the 16-millimeter still.
[8:55] It'll not be true to the word, so we'll have to see if it comes out.
[9:00] We really appreciate it.
[9:02] I'll be at ease if you'll come to the picture.
[9:05] so that you can have the opportunity, you might want, and that would be a great pleasure.
[9:11] We wish you the best.
[9:12] We're proud of the good people that you've met in our lives.
[9:17] It's going to be a great privilege for you to spend time with us.
[9:25] You have the fortitude.
[9:27] I'll say your fund makes it to the field of the class.
[9:33] And certainly if our blessings just go out.
[9:37] Anything we can do for you, please let us know.
[9:40] We'll be more than glad to talk to you.
[9:43] You've always said, I love you.
[9:46] Goodbye.
[9:47] Goodbye.
[9:48] Goodbye.
[9:49] Goodbye.
[9:50] Goodbye.
[9:50] Goodbye.
[9:50] Goodbye.
[9:53] Thank you.
[9:55] Thank you.
