[1:05] I switched him over to you, but you know, he always does that.
[1:08] He always takes the call from me.
[1:10] He does that every time.
[1:12] And then, you know, he asks if anyone wants to talk to Kathleen and Sam.
[1:18] Which ended up was so sweet, because my contacts were so great.
[1:21] I called him every time he called me.
[2:06] I would like to do a couple of things.
[2:14] It's very important to have an NIR announcement.
[2:22] I had a call, I raised a really broken note, and I think he'll come to dinner here.
[2:26] He said he'd let him come to either one.
[2:28] I think it'll be the one here, but Ann's going to call him back.
[2:31] It's very important.
[2:32] The coffee's going to be here for a week.
[2:38] I want them to hold it.
[2:39] I don't want the capacity to stay.
[2:41] Well, yes, this is what I suggested.
[2:43] Wow, wow.
[2:45] Also, with the coffee, we could talk about the coffee, the tea that we hear.
[2:47] Also, one of the signs that we hope that the actors will see.
[2:49] They might say, you know, we have to return the actors to their present place.
[3:03] I don't know.
[3:21] Thank you very much.
[4:08] Only you can come past George Bush.
[4:20] And I am.
[4:22] And I am.
[4:25] And I am.
[4:27] And I am.
[5:03] I've already told you I don't want just the...
[5:05] I don't need to say this in charge, but I can relate it as the bookshelves.
[5:15] I would like a quite a big shelf thing, and I think I'll have fresh stuff out here.
[5:21] Well, let's see, they're already invited.
[5:24] I'll assure you, no, because I invited undersecretaries, and this is a secretary.
[5:29] I don't mean secretary, I mean undersecretary of department.
[5:34] Timmons, as I mentioned the other day, sent me 41 names, and I cut off about six of them, because they don't make every call on me.
[5:40] And I told them, I said, we just can't do that, you know.
[5:44] But I don't know.
[5:45] I'll look at the list of people I'll contact.
[5:48] The list is important and not gross.
[5:50] I'm going to have freshmen, please, that are two classes, please.
[5:53] If I had thought of it, I think I would have added a few RBIBs, including Newcastle.
[6:04] Well, we've got quite a few candidates coming to dinner.
[6:09] No, wait a minute.
[6:11] Your son is not, Ricky's not coming tonight.
[6:12] No, no, but we've got more candidates.
[6:15] Butts is not.
[6:16] Butts, well, Butts, Steve, and that's all.
[6:18] Butts, and that's all.
[6:24] Who?
[6:25] Well, I'm still looking.
[6:26] See, I'm working on mine for July, and I haven't paid for it.
[6:30] I can bring them a little bit right now.
[6:34] Shells should come.
[6:36] Shells should come.
[6:37] And layers.
[6:39] Layers and hay.
[6:40] Layers and hay.
[6:42] Layers and hay should come.
[6:48] Now, we did not put rice on them, but he won't care.
[7:17] Well, no, I thought he lost some of those from making dinner returns.
[7:20] He went over there and signed some papers.
[7:22] The return is fine.
[7:22] But Pete, he's been to virtually everything here.
[7:26] And I love him.
[7:27] But it's, you know, I mean, there are other people.
[7:30] Yeah, yeah, he's amazing.
[7:31] And he has died me like all of us.
[7:32] In the whole of America.
[7:33] He's just as I thought I wanted to have him to come over there.
[7:37] And I'm ready to put him on for other purposes.
[7:41] Legs for a while.
[7:42] And show him.
[7:43] Yeah.
[7:44] And you mentioned trying to get people... And also the woman, she comes by.
[7:50] Yes, she comes by, which we tried to balance out quite well.
[7:55] And the only people, I was trying to think of people who were involved, maybe in the afternoon, it doesn't get too cold.
[8:06] Thank you for watching!
[8:54] You know, I'm just telling the hell out of everybody.
[8:55] It's a little key to successful speeches on the internet.
[8:58] Successfully dead in the chat.
[9:02] We've never seen a person like that before.
[9:03] They just want me to get up and talk about it all the time.
[9:08] You see?
[9:08] That's what it's all about.
[9:10] And I'll give you a bit of that last week.
[9:13] I'll give you that last week.
[9:23] Well, you know what?
[9:25] Connelly said what?
[9:26] That it was such a good, understandable play.
[9:31] Understandable the reason that everybody knows that.
[9:33] So it was.
[9:34] It wasn't a good understanding.
[9:37] You asked Don Handel to make some of all the books for Connelly.
[9:39] I think I need some of mine, and I want some of Handel's books.
[9:53] I don't know why I haven't been able to mention that for a long time.
[9:59] And I don't think it's a good look at what's there today.
[10:12] I think it's a good look at what's there today.
[10:16] Don't worry about those roads.
[10:21] Don't worry.
[10:52] Well, one of the thoughts that I had was that one fellow, because he had wanted to go on the championship, and he couldn't go on the championship, and I said, look, you know, we really can't do this.
[11:03] These are too important to us.
[11:07] I don't know how he did it.
[11:17] It was a good job, and Walter Taylor called him.
[11:24] He had just arrived in town to turn on the television and watch it, and he thought it was a good idea.
[11:34] I didn't know how you knew me.
[11:36] I came along.
[11:38] You know, you had the bill.
[11:40] You guys had a visit coming up.
[11:47] We have very few, as I told you, you saw the last night's delivery.
[11:50] We made it pretty nonpartisan, because I think I'm just looking to the top.
[11:54] And we'll spread that out together.
[11:59] That's good.
[12:01] That's great.
[12:01] You can buy it.
[12:03] And if this is not real, we're going to ask Paul Hall.
[12:06] I don't know whether they did this today or not.
[12:09] And if not, are you still going to have a poolside party?
[12:14] I don't know what's going to develop out there at this point.
[12:17] I think we should.
[12:18] I'd love to have it.
[12:19] If so, I'm going to have Raven.
[12:22] I just can't have stars.
[12:23] I want a lot of stars.
[12:25] I'd love to see the stars.
[12:28] They're charging the business people from as far as Chicago and Washington may be out.
[12:38] And you could invite Reagan, and you could invite the governors and things around the area.
[12:42] How the hell was that?
[12:43] Reagan, if you're not a citizen of the government, you cannot help those people.
[12:53] Fair enough, but you know I think it would be good for some of our dinners to add like a Governor Maxwell or something.
[12:58] Yeah, to dinners I would have them, but I wouldn't add them to this sort of thing.
[13:04] I started with making them a list of two crowds of people.
[13:10] Reagan and I had just friends, real friends of business people.
[13:13] But mostly Californians?
[13:17] All Californians.
[13:19] All Californians.
[13:22] And the stars, the more that changes.
[13:25] Yeah.
[13:25] We'll start working on this.
[13:30] You want to say, you know, a couple hundred people, or a hundred people would.
[13:39] Well, when they service us, you were planning on something like you did for the stars, which would be a buffet.
[13:48] You know, have that buffet table set up.
[13:51] And have it be, um, um, cuffed up.
[13:55] And it would be, they would, you would have to bring them live back somewhere and just tag them alive.
[14:04] Please.
[14:05] And that means good work on this song.
[14:08] Please keep on that.
[14:10] Please.
