Well, I don't know where the fuck the rest of them are, but that's okay.

Hey, I'm Jeff. This is off topic.

This is going to be a tough one to do today.

Hopefully, that's obvious to you guys.

That's okay.

I wanted to talk to you a little bit.

I know some of you hate when I have my Jeff talks, but you're going to have to indulge

me for a few minutes.

I will do my best to make it quickly.

I was of three minds on what to do about today's off topic.

I spoke at length with Trevor and Lewis last night until probably two in the morning.

I'll just run through the options with you because I want to get understand of that process.

Obviously, Rusteeeth laid off about 50 people yesterday.

You've read the statement from that.

I'm sure you've done your armchair CEOing.

That's obviously devastating in one of the darkest days in the history of our company.

I hope it's one of the darkest days going forward.

Here's the dilemma.

Ideally, we would start off topic today and move forward like nothing ever happened.

The job is to entertain you people.
