Well, ahoy, ahoy, Ben! You know, I think this may be an apocryphal story, but I believe Alexander Graham Bell himself wanted ahoy, ahoy to be the greeting for telephonic communications, and somehow that didn't catch on, which is kind of a shame. But yes, Montgomery Burns! Which reminds me a funny story that um my grandmother over in Poland, she lived out in the sticks in a rural village and hers was one of the last, she was a holdout! She didn't get a phone until like the late 80s Which is just crazy, right? Anyway, she didn't have any telephone etiquette, so she didn't know hello, goodbye! And so like when she was, you know, when you know you say your goodbyes like she just like she just hung up the phone! It's like, okay, goodbye grandma blah blah blah! And it's like nothing because she hung up the phone! Which I think is hilarious! Anyway, I'm driving on my way home. Actually, I'm pulled over here at the 12th Avenue 12th Ave South viewpoint on Beacon Hill. I can see the lights of downtown through the trees I did a split shift today. You know, I was burnt! Oh the wind and the rain! I'm like, ahhh! Curse you! Is that all you got? You know, I had a I had to get cameras up at a location before 7 a.m. tomorrow. Yes today! And then had to take them down after 7 p.m. Today So it was dark and rainy and windy When I was putting them up and it was dark and rainy and windy When I was taking them down it was up in north it was up in northeast-ish Seattle way up high a good good spot with a good radio horizon So I was like, ooh! But that also meant at the top of the hill, you know, got all the wind! So anyway, yes, I was you know, I was fortified with my Indignance To protect me and keep me warm Let's see other things. Oh, yeah, I also took my partner to her to her workplace and took her to her actual office because she's nursing a Fractured foot as she's doing much better now. She actually went into work today, but lo and behold I took her to her office. I look at her side desk and I was like, oh, is that a radio? Is that a handheld radio? Why have you not informed me of this? Why have you not informed me of this? Wait, did I did it?
