It's a little bit that and a little bit me trying to make sure. Today is Friday, right? Today is Friday. I think I'm finally on the level where I know what day it is. So that's going to return to that, just in time to yes, be nervous about the TSS Derby. So it's this Saturday. |
| 0:21.5 | It's 1231, US Eastern Park. where I know what day it is. So that's going to return to that, just in time to yes, be nervous about the TSS Derby. |

| 1:13.1 | I doubt I'll be able to withhold making some comments. I'll bet you I appear in the weekend review via text message. That would make sense, yes. Yeah.
