Support of the operation as it has been in the past. Do I have too many memories that are good. I've been telling people to retire down

And I'm certainly not going to feel bad when I left a spoiled 30 years you've been awfully good I've met some pretty fine people. I didn't do so bad even though I was some of the communications shows I think I've met the best my good the best is what I think of maybe your successor Jenna.
