I remember we came up with this quite a few years ago, Joe and I did.

One, we thought we had the sort of audience that was giving so we could raise money for good causes.

And I think it was just sort of like this time of year, you know, you're throwing money around

on all kinds of different things.

How about just, just from my own personal standpoint, how about I throw a little money

towards something good this time of year?

I think, you know, lots of people do that.

Oh, right.

And we wanted to advocate for the things we hold most dear, and it turns

out it's coincided quite beautifully with y'alls. Yeah, yeah, and a number of organizations through

the years where we've raised a lot of money. This year, we're going to try to raise a lot of money

for the scouts. And the reason for that is, you've heard me talk about this a lot. My youngest

joined the Boy Scouts, I think last March, and it's been the

best thing that's ever happened to him. And then just being around scouting, I have become

aware of things that I didn't know. I was a Boy Scout for a couple of years many, many, many,

many years ago, because I'm quite old.

But watching scouts and realizing how much more there is to it than learning about knots and putting up a tent and all that sort of stuff and hiking and all that. They do all that stuff and it's really, really cool.

But learning about values and leadership and teamwork and all these different things and seeing it up close.

I've been so amazed.

And finding out that it costs a little bit to get into scouting and do a lot of things you want to do.
