Yep, JB zero man. I'm ashamed to say that I really don't know much about my state history I had traveled so much over the years and I never really spent much time in Missouri itself, you know Just everywhere, you know the kind of thing when I got here I got I came to Missouri because my parents were here. I had to go with them. I I tried to leave multiple times, and I succeeded for four, five, six years, and then somehow I always wound up back in Missouri. So let me tell you what I can come up with. Everybody knows we're a red state, we have been for quite some time, but what people don't know is they equate St. Louis as Democrat, and it is, there's a lot of Democrats over there in St. Louis but the rest of the state not so much. So people make for some reason they they don't think about Kansas City as much as they think about St. Louis so they make the assumption that we're more of a blue state than a red state and that can be farther from the truth. Matter of fact right now in St. Louis ICE is going to town over there but on the Kansas side the Republican part of the state. There's nobody here bothering with immigrants at the moment. So, let's see here. You know, this is a Mormon town. Everybody thinks Utah is a Mormon town, but it's also Independence, Missouri. We have a temple here where supposedly Jesus is supposed to to reappear, you know, at the second coming. It's a very interesting building with a upside, well, actually it's not upside down. It looks like a soft serve ice cream cone. It goes up about, oh, maybe six, seven stories. And it would be the Joseph, well, they got three factions of Mormons here. But it's a big Mormon area, and what's interesting about that is basically Missouri gave out an extermination order to either get the militants, or not militants, militia, I believe it was. And basically, they were kicking the Mormons out of Missouri or killing them off if they refused to leave. So that's kind of interesting. I think World's Fair 1904 in St. Louis. I thought that was cool. I've seen old pictures of it and they have a museum down there that shows a lot of what went on. And
