0:05.2	on one Thursday morning and thinking to yourself just one more day until Friday. But then somebody
0:11.3	in the elevator says, happy friday. Then you check your phone quickly and discover today is

1:36.0	and it's very fair to say that you guys are smarter than me. More on that later, guys,
1:41.8	but let's begin with the only place that makes sense because
