All right. Hello, everyone, everyone, welcome to it. It is the

11th of the longest 2025. Happy Monday to you, and this is very abbreviated because we just got home and go to Detroit for a memorial service for my mother's best friend.

Thank you, Dean, very much, for filling in, making sure there's something in this space.

I should have probably asked him for today, but I didn't.

I thought we'd get home earlier

and realize we went to the Upper Peninsula and that's a long-ass drive and so got home

late and it's good to sleep in your own bed and all that stuff and also my kids drained my

iPad to 3% power even though I told them not to so yeah now it's

Monday morning and I'm just here to tell you back to regular order tomorrow I'm back on

the radio tomorrow I'm not on the radio today I'm back in podcasting tomorrow all that good

stuff it was a good trip otherwise my mother's best friend passed away a couple of months ago, but this, her husband was my dad's best friend. They met in kindergarten. That tells you how long ago that we've known these people. And they just didn't have,

they were able to put together the memorials of,

more of a party,

because that's what Sharon would have wanted.

And it's weird.

You get to reach a certain age,

and then you're just like,

you know what, have fun with my memory.

And we did.

And, yeah, she's back up with my mom and dad and pat's still with

us thank god still get the stories of my and so it just cut off on me so i'm using the speaker on

the uh ipad to cut it because it had to be plugged in so you know what i don't even remember
