Greetings and salutations, everyone.

It's about 11 o'clock on whatever the day is.

Timmy, is the day the 27th of August?

It is indeed.

Thank goodness for our calendar.

Yes, it is the 27th.

My, something was blocking the calendar here, so I couldn't see it.

But we're back for a take 10 with Tim, and I think we've got a good show plan for everybody, Tim.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

A lot of really interesting questions.

Very interesting.

How has your week been, Timmy?

My week has been good, except for the smoke.

It's, we got lots of forest fires in the area.

And, you know, being a smoker, Rich, I'm always concerned about fires.

And when you wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning because your house just reeks of burning embers

It's not a good thing and the smoke is just it's just heavy in the air today. It really is

That is a bit rolled in last night. It actually smelled smell like something was burning in the house. That's how strong it was.

Wow.

And I didn't have the air conditioning on either, so it wasn't pulled into the house through the AC.

That's how heavy it is.

Wow.
