Just a quick bit of Twitter breaking news. I woke up. I had a crazy morning, but I saw somebody tweeted me that good woods come into the beach.

It said, and I was like, oh, where are they going? Are they going down to done Kirk or something? And it said, no, Miami.

Interesting. Yeah, Chris could probably find that article somewhere. Coming off a big F1 Miami event.

Yeah, so this was reported yesterday, pending a city contract. The good wood festival speed is coming to Miami Beach.

Promising to bring luminaries to the world of racing car collectors and exhibitors with a focus on the future of transportation in the end of fossil fuels usage.

I'm laughing because it's a, you know, pending city council approval of whatever. Yeah, if you said that's coming to Santa Monica, I would have went, yeah, good luck.

We'll see you in 15 to 20 years. That is. What's the coastal commission weighs in on this? But Tom of Florida, get her done.

And you go, man, there should be more of these. This is great. So like when you go to good wood, you look around and you go, wow, man, this should be going on everywhere.

And you make, you know, and then Mike August goes, they need to bring good wood to the United States, you know, because he's, you know, thinking of it from a business standpoint.
