You know that's interesting. I don't know if the Americans write letters or as kids wrote letters to Santa Claus, North Pole, HOHOHO as the postal code. Ho ho ho. I'm not sure if you guys did that in the states or not when you were younger or if you had kids or whatever. Here in Canada it was a big thing and the postal service, that's all volunteer, Kevin if you can believe that. All of those letters that used to be hand written, I don't know what the cases would have been anymore, I never thought about that in years. But I know that was postal volunteers from all those various areas where everything with HOHOHO would end up in a big pile at the various distribution centers. And the postal volunteers would grab a pile of them, take them home in their off time, and read all the letters and do a custom reply back to each kid. If you can believe that. I don't know now if it's just like a typed up template or whatever but they were always written on this North Pole stationery with a Christmas picture in the background for a watermark kind of thing. And before Christmas you would get, yours was sent off in time, before Christmas you would get a custom letter back from Santa. And you knew it was from Santa because he talked about in the letter some things that you put in your list and your letter to him and that was mind blowing as a kid back in the day. It really was man because you knew it was from Santa and there was no disputin it because you know he knew. Curious if you guys in the states did that. Here in Canada you know postal codes are a letter, a number, and a letter. Like mine for instance is A0A because I'm like right on the east coast, furthest east as you can get. And then the second part is 1JO because it's number, letter, number. So H0H0H0 is ho ho ho and it works out to be a Canadian postal code. Well as if it were a Canadian postal code, it's not. So yeah curious if you guys in the states did that and if you did did you write them to that address? KJ5IRQ Josh you're up.
