[0:11] Um, how are you feeling this morning?
[0:15] Fine.
[0:16] Uh, oh great, just finished a two hour meeting on taxes.
[0:20] Boy, that's a tough one.
[0:22] Yeah, we've got to present our tax resolution for the meeting this Monday, so boy, do you think what you're doing is complicated.
[0:29] You ought to get into that one.
[0:30] There are about eighteen different things.
[0:33] I started making connections a few years ago, so.
[0:37] I know a little about it, but I don't know.
[0:39] I could never even pass the first day's test today.
[0:42] It changed so much.
[0:43] All right.
[0:46] I was just going to ask if you'd gotten that message to you last night.
[0:49] Who did you talk to?
[0:51] Neeson?
[0:53] Right.
[1:05] Right.
[1:08] Right.
[1:10] And what did they, what did they affect on you?
[1:46] That's the problem.
[1:47] That's the right thing to do.
[1:52] And they, it's the right thing.
[1:54] And of course the prosecutor is a Jew.
[1:56] He himself is the best witness to the fact that it was, that he didn't know a damn thing about it.
[2:01] Isn't that correct?
[2:06] Nobody knew.
[2:07] It was a damned, one of those damned dry holes.
[2:23] Where is Glitter?
[2:23] Oh boy.
[2:24] All right.
[2:53] I'm not sure if it's going in our group, I guess the one that's in the interior.
[3:05] It's a waiter that's been working on it, isn't it?
[3:07] And Garmin, right?
[3:09] Who's, who's, who all, who?
[3:18] There's been more department.
[3:30] I'd like to talk to you about it, but I think if you would, you bring in with you whatever one you think will get me, you know, there, because I've got to know what the damn Indian Department thinks.
[3:42] You know what I mean?
[3:43] But your judgment is the one that will be decisive, I can assure you.
[3:49] I know, yeah, yeah.
[3:51] Ken is a superb fellow.
[3:53] Cole is a superb fellow.
[3:56] He gets everything in here to work.
[4:00] But it's a conversation.
[4:02] The only thing I'm concerned about is getting somebody killed.
[4:06] And that aren't you.
[4:57] I don't.
[5:26] Other words, you can go in and call in and get them.
[5:29] I got her.
[5:31] Other words, you can go in and get them.
[5:37] All right, off that.
[5:40] Why not try it?
[5:40] You can get in that car and then that's pretty good.
[5:42] Put her on foot.
[5:44] All right, off that.
[5:45] Why not try it?
[5:48] You can get in that car and then that's pretty good.
[5:50] Put her on foot.
[5:56] Well, you, you get a hold of, uh, of, uh, I, uh, well, well, you, you get a hold of, uh, of, uh, Steve, Nicole, Steve, Nicole, whenever, you know, you think it's the right day, and, uh, I'm available.
[6:16] Whenever, you know, you think it's the right day, and, uh, I'm available.
[6:26] You're dead.
[6:27] Fine, fine.
[6:29] All dead.
[6:31] Dead.
[6:32] Fine, fine.
[6:32] All dead.
