Uh, how we doing on time here?
Hmm.
-Get everybody to tune up. -Get everybody to tune up?
That's a good idea. That's a good idea.
Okay.
I'd like to introduce my audience to you.
Uh, we have Robert Breeden over here, and over there we have a friend of his, and there's a guy sitting next to him.
Then there's a girl, and there's Andrea, and there's a guy who was taking pictures, and then another guy.
Second row.
Uh, I c-- uh, I can't keep it up.
Well, -they know who they are. -I'm Jerry.
Jerry, -how you doing? -I'm Steve.
Oh, you're Steve. Oh.
Well, Steve and Jerry are here.
Uh, any messages?
-Hi, Mom. -Be first.

-Say hi to Al for me. -Hi, Al.
Uh, Linda, Bobby wants you.
Misses you.

Bob.
