Yeah, KV0MAI. I'm sure you're gonna get it fixed down. You know, if a guy is not profitable, you've been in business that long, you know, you've got to remember that what constitutes a emergency for you might not constitute an emergency for others. Just hanging out and maybe getting it done right, man, I think you'll be a lot happier than if you go to somebody else and pay twice as much money or you bought the job and you have to go get it done again. It's probably doing the right thing by just waiting. I know it's frustrating. I know when my bike broke down though I wanted to fix them fixed immediately. It just doesn't work that way. There's not enough mechanics around. Gray, I was thinking about that African-American you were talking about. I think the movie was called Men of Honor. I have my computer with me right now so I can't look it up. But that is based off of a true story. The first African-American that went to a Navy dive camp and began diving. And they gave him a lot of crap for that particular scene you're talking about where he's underneath the water trying to put this assembly together. A valve and some bolts and a couple of pipes and stuff. Most of these guys did it in two or three hours. The reason why he was down there for such a long time is the fact that they had ripped his bag open purposely so the parts would spread down all over the place and bottom of the ocean floor. And so that's what took us so long was finding the parts together. Not to mention they were in these old item suits with a big old cast iron mask on. They'd pump air down to him and stuff like that. And nothing was insulated. Pretty cold down there. And then the last scene where he lost his leg. Well it was his last scene. It was just a middle movie where he was out there and he was losing his leg in the ocean. He was going to kick him out and how he fought to stay in and still be a diver for several more years. You check out the Wikipedia page on him. I remember I was reading about it. And he died. It was quite fascinating. So Josh, thanks a lot for the tip. I think you said Max Sports. M-A-X-S-P-O-R-T. Correct me if I'm wrong. You can look him up. I don't really... I've never been into it to make a living. Now I might try when I retire. I'm not exactly sure what and that might be just one way I can do it. I never really per se been compensated for my work. I took a picture of a man while he was cutting down my tree and it was a great picture of him and his armor glasses on, black shirt, sawdust all over him. And I sent it to the company in which I hired and they came back and asked me if they could post it on their website. I said yeah, go ahead. So I got a little recognition there. And the same thing happened with a... oh, a... what I'm tongue tied here. A band, a musical band. I went to an open free show and they're a brand new group. I started taking pictures when I found this one that I thought was awesome. Down their website and send it to them and they come back and actually asked if they could use it as a front page. I said sure. And we asked the compensation. I said well when you become rich and famous, I knew I want a backseat stage back. Now the odds of them becoming famous are nil to none. But wouldn't that be cool? Ten years later they call me up and say hey, we got a big, big thing coming up and here's your backseat back, backstage pass. That would be awesome. And then for sports what I've been doing is I focus on my grandson's team as a whole and like the basketball was just eight kids. And then when I get done with everything, I put up on Lightroom. And Lightroom has a wonderful program where I can make a little page and a link to it. And I give the link to all the parents and they can go to that page and download whatever they want to get their kids. You know the picture of them playing that particular sport. But it's just basically...
