Well, fine report, I love your story. Also, I've loved Gordon Lightfoot since one of my girlfriends, Diane Carlson, turned me on to... Well, I knew about Gordon Lightfoot, but she was a total fan and we listened to her records all the time. The first one I heard was Gord's Gold, which is the one that Diane had. And then, I have a friend that has played with him and I just... The more I learned about Gordon Lightfoot, the more I liked him and so I've since have gone back into his older albums. I think he was in his prime, like when he did the Summertime Dream album, I think that's when he really hit the big time and that's the one that the original version of the record, the Edmund Fitzgerald is on it. But I've listened to the whole album. In fact, I've listened to the whole album again today on Clay and Rachie's show and it withstands the test of time. Gordon Lightfoot is one of my favorite musicians. And you were in the army, US Army from 73 to 75. I joined the army in 78, post-Vietnam era and then I joined the Navy in 1982. I had totally different jobs. I was an aircraft mechanic in the army, 67 November, which is a helicopter mechanic. UH-1H, utility helicopter repairman. And then the Navy, I was an optics technician and worked on gun sights and allodates and fire control optics and including binoculars. Anyway though, moving right along, let's start a third and final round. What time is it? It's going to be the last round. It's already after 10 here in Pacific, 10 PM Pacific Standard Time.
