All right, sorry about that just exited the shower room and I was I Had to pull the phone back out of my pocket Go back to my truck and get my oatmeal eat that and then That's it. I still have some time before I Have my hours returned to me so I can start driving I've been trying to think Because, I mean, I was born in Massachusetts, up in Amesbury. We moved out of there when I was five or four, moved out of there when I was four. Then we went down to Texas, Corpus Christi, and we spent about a year down there, a year, year and a half, and then we moved to San Diego, and that's pretty much where I grew up is in San Diego. So but I don't remember a lot of teaching of specifically California history in school. I don't know if it's the shallowness of California or what else. I mean, I know there's, you know, pockets of people that really get interested in the home state of California's history. I know it was part of, you know, Mexico at one point, like Texas was, and then they had the war and when the United States won the war, they, oh, I think they might have purchased it or they just annexed it and said, OK, this is what we're going to take. And Mexico, at the time, didn't have anything to say about it because they lost. So we became a part of the United States at some time. I'm not sure it was directly after the Mexican-American War or if it was a little bit later. I mean, I love growing up in California. I miss California, but I'm glad I'm out of California for reasons. But I do miss being in California. Shoot. And now I'm in Arizona. I have my life just from upstate New York, as you know. And we lived back there for a while, off and on. Whoops, I'm gonna grab one. You
