I'm dumb and we know that. I thought, you know, we'll play it by ear. I've said play it by year for forever. I was saying play it by year until last year. We're just going to go year to year. Yeah, I thought that makes sense. Year to year, I get it, okay, yeah, it makes sense that one. Still makes more sense. I don't know. Play it by year, play it by year. I don't get it. yeah it makes sense that one still makes more sense i don't know play it by year play

it by year i don't get it either way i was wrong and that's me struggling with the english

holy crap it's been a summer being out and about. And thinking about what we heard in the intro,

I was back in Southern California last week. Right. I was at a Rotary Club meeting and someone gave me their card for the new business and it was smoke and mirrors. Oh. It's smoking mirrors. You don't even know how to say it. We started a business. That's another one that I have butchered my whole life until this past year too.

Yeah.

Did you get that shirt

when you were out there as well?

I did.

I figured.

It's a local. Everyday California is the brand. Okay. I guess we're both wearing black today. I have black over here today. I have something to add for you. I'm very not only California. I was back in the homeland in Iowa City. Okay. And after Kirk Ferrence was on, I think in the spring, I said, I got to get you some Iowa swag.

Okay. And after Kirk Ferrence was on, I think in the spring, I said, I got to get you some Iowa swag. Okay. So I was in the building, and I took care of that. You are the man. It's something you can actually wear. I appreciate that very much. And the top button will be buttoned, but I'll sport some Iowa football. It's good stuff. I can respect that program. You should be proud representing as an honorary Hawkeye. Yes. Yeah. Okay. I will. I definitely will. Next Tuesday when I'm back, let's both wear Iowa things. I'm not so sure about that. Calm, calm down. Okay, calm down. But maybe I'll get you a Texas shirt at some point too. Yeah. We'll call it even. All right. Sounds good. All right. So what else? Everything else good in life?

All good. It's nice to be back settling into football. Yeah. Been out doing some lacrosse, doing some other kind of travel stuff. Being daddy daycare. Yeah, that whole thing. Kids need to go back to school. Damn kids. Get back to school. Yes. One hand, it's nice to have them around. On the other hand, it's like, can next Tuesday get here any quicker?

Yeah, is it?
