Speaker 1: Money Money.
Speaker 2: Here's a little something that could help your money grow.
Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg moneymnutte on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3: Are we saying good morning to Denise Pellegrini at our
Speaker 3: Bloomberg newsroom in New York City. Here comes chat GPT
Speaker 3: Health Denise to help you and me to manage things
Speaker 3: if you will.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what they say. Open Ai is introducing chat
Speaker 4: GPT Health. It's feature that will allow users like you
Speaker 4: and me to analyze medical test results, also prepare for
Speaker 4: doctor's appointments, and seek guidance on things like your diet
Speaker 4: and your workout routine. It could connect with electronic medical
Speaker 4: records as well, also with wearable devices and wellness apps.
Speaker 4: And they say it's intended to provide useful health and
Speaker 4: fitness information but stop short of making formal diagnoses. And
Speaker 4: they're also stress it's designed to supplement, not replace the
Speaker 4: judgment of doctors.
Speaker 3: Right, And yeah, I've been a lot of news lately
Speaker 3: about suicide teens and and things like that. With chat GPT,
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a fine line there.
Speaker 4: It's horrible. And also they're trying to wall off health
Speaker 4: conversations from other parts of the app. Uh, that's an
Speaker 4: enhanced privacy feature because that's a concern as well. Sure,
Speaker 4: you know you put all your information on chat GPT.
Speaker 4: Chat GPT benefits from having all that information. That's what
Speaker 4: it does. Sucks up all this information and markets it
Speaker 4: in various forms. So it's all very interesting. I mean,
Speaker 4: some of these apps, these health apps are amazing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they really are, I mean, and it's all the
Speaker 3: rage for a lot of people these days. We talk
Speaker 3: about that regularly here on Tuesdays with Julieusfording. Meanwhile, driverless
Speaker 3: vehicle plans. Ford has plans for that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Ford, which has a lot of operations in
Speaker 4: your neck of the woods, is talking about debuting technology
Speaker 4: within a couple of years that will allow drivers to
Speaker 4: take their eyes off the road, and that, when you
Speaker 4: think about it, could lead the automaker into the robotaxi business.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 4: Ford's Blue Cruise driver assist feature does currently allow you
Speaker 4: to take your hands off the wheel, but you got
Speaker 4: to keep those eyes on the road under the current model.
Speaker 4: The new version allows drivers to look away though. That'll
Speaker 4: debut in Ford's forthcoming thirty thousand dollars all electric small
Speaker 4: pickup truck platform. When we get that maybe in a
Speaker 4: couple of years, Okay. And our futures this morning, Denise, Yes,
Speaker 4: stock futures are lower, down futures down one seventy eight
Speaker 4: s and P futures down twelve, Nasdaq futures down sixty five.
Speaker 4: We did have a report about job creation showing, you know,
Speaker 4: not as many firings and maybe more hirings than the
Speaker 4: trend was for twenty twenty five. So that's a good
Speaker 4: solid start if you're looking at an economic indicator. But
Speaker 4: at the same time, you know, the job market's too good,
Speaker 4: the Fed might not cut interest rates, So maybe that's
Speaker 4: contributing a little bit to the negative tone with the
Speaker 4: futures today. And also that whole thing with the President
Speaker 4: Trump and the housing market and blocking large investors from
Speaker 4: buying homes, and also the whole defense constructer thing, which
Speaker 4: has defense stocks themselves higher right now because they're anticipating
Speaker 4: higher spending. But still just a lot of uncertainty about
Speaker 4: what the President might say today. From Bloomberg. I'm Tenise
Speaker 4: Pellgreny News Radio seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3: Eight eleven here on the Morning Show on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3: We do this every single Thursday at this time we
Speaker 3: get together. You hear him on better than two hundred
Speaker 3: and seventy five stations syndicated nationwide, and we're happy that
Speaker 3: his home Nase is right here in the Buckeye State
Speaker 3: and Centinnati, Ohio. Talking about our friend Gary Sullivan. Happy
Speaker 3: New Year, my friend.
Speaker 1: Well, a happy new Year to you. Tom.
Speaker 3: How you doing doing great? I'm doing really really well.
Speaker 3: I hope your holiday went well.
Speaker 5: It went great.
Speaker 1: Do you have a lot of family time?
Speaker 3: I sure did and it was a fantastic Hope you
Speaker 3: did too, Yep, sure did. Okay, we've been talking and
Speaker 3: a lot of people talk all the time about New
Speaker 3: Year's resolutions, right, and we were talking the other day
Speaker 3: that seventy nine percent of those has to do with
Speaker 3: people getting in better physical shape.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, A lot about health right now, Yes it is.
Speaker 3: But look, there's also some New Year's resolutions you can
Speaker 3: have with your home. And as you talk about regularly,
Speaker 3: there is no bigger investment for most of us out
Speaker 3: there than what we invest in our homes, and so
Speaker 3: you want to keep them in tip top shape. Let's
Speaker 3: start with the most basic thing we need in life
Speaker 3: besides air, and that would be water.
Speaker 5: Well, that ties into the health thing. Also, Tom is
Speaker 5: you know in a lot of parts, and it's been
Speaker 5: in the news over the years, you know, a number
Speaker 5: of years back with flint Michigan and everything. How safe
Speaker 5: is our water? And I want to say upfront, some
Speaker 5: of the most safe water in the United States is
Speaker 5: right here in the Grader six set area. It's wonderful water,
Speaker 5: but it's very hard water. Lots of limestone, you know,
Speaker 5: limestone's good for racehorses and bourbon. That's so good for
Speaker 5: our home. Okay, yeah, you're right about that. Okay.
Speaker 3: We hear all the time about water softeners, right, and
Speaker 3: there are some that you salt, there are some that don't.
Speaker 3: Could you walk us through sort of the differences if
Speaker 3: you're thinking about a water softener here in twenty twenty six, yep.
Speaker 5: So there's three water quality products out there. There's salt
Speaker 5: free water softeners. You may have heard it advertise. That's
Speaker 5: very appealing to somebody that doesn't want to carry fifty
Speaker 5: pounds bags of salt down into the basement.
Speaker 1: Which I do all the time, so do I.
Speaker 5: And also there's parts of the country now that have
Speaker 5: brine restrictions in other words, that salt flushes out the system. Okay,
Speaker 5: when it collects hard water deposits, and that brine goes
Speaker 5: down into the sewerage system which goes into the waterways.
Speaker 5: And there's some people different parts of the country now.
Speaker 1: Have some brain restrictions.
Speaker 5: So that's one and I'll explain the difference between the two.
Speaker 5: And the other one is the one you and I
Speaker 5: are used to, the water softener that you put the
Speaker 5: salt in the big salt tube and away you go. Now,
Speaker 5: the whole thing what a water softener is is it
Speaker 5: takes out or eliminates hard water, that's the minerals in
Speaker 5: the water. So the salt free is not really a
Speaker 5: water softener, so it's not really taking out hard water deposits.
Speaker 5: What it's doing is the sult free softeners actually removed
Speaker 5: the They they change the molecular structure of the minerals
Speaker 5: in the water, which allows it to pass through you know,
Speaker 5: your water heater, your shower and everything. And what they've
Speaker 5: done is they've charged the hard water particles so that
Speaker 5: it does not stick on metal surfaces. The salt free
Speaker 5: or that's the salt free the salt type, it starts
Speaker 5: kind of collecting those Okay, it's not really chargingm So
Speaker 5: when you put the salt in there, it's really removing
Speaker 5: the hard ware depositives. It's really the best soft water.
Speaker 5: It's actually giving you soft water, good for your skin,
Speaker 5: good for your clothes, good for your water here, good
Speaker 5: for your showers. It's soft water. It's removing it, and
Speaker 5: then the salt flushes it out of the system. A
Speaker 5: lot of people when they get salt in a system,
Speaker 5: they're afraid that they're going to be ingesting salt.
Speaker 1: It's not.
Speaker 5: That's going down the i'll say, sewer, septic whatever. It's
Speaker 5: kind of removing it. It allows the soap to lather better.
Speaker 5: It really is eliminating the hard water. And again that's
Speaker 5: salt free. It's just charging the particles in there. It's
Speaker 5: keeping the hard water from sticking on glass, on metal.
Speaker 5: It's just allowing that hard water to not adhere to
Speaker 5: something in your plumbing system. It's going right down the drain,
Speaker 5: but you don't get the benefits of the i'll say
Speaker 5: good for your skin, good for your clothes, your hair, Yeah,
Speaker 5: that type of thing. So that's the two main differences.
Speaker 5: Then there's a third one, and it's not a water softener,
Speaker 5: and that's a product. A lot of people get very confused.
Speaker 5: They think of a water softener is really bringing up the
Speaker 5: quality of water, and it is from a hardness standpoint.
Speaker 5: But a reverse osmosis, I don't know if you have
Speaker 5: one of those in your home or not. Those are
Speaker 5: usually a point of use, like underneath the kitchen sink
Speaker 5: or in the bathroom. And what it does is a
Speaker 5: company will come and they will test for chemicals in
Speaker 5: your water. Like I said, in the Cincinnati area, we
Speaker 5: got pretty good water. But you may be surprised. There
Speaker 5: may be maybe you're someone that doesn't want fluoride in
Speaker 5: your water. Maybe in older areas you have a lot
Speaker 5: of lead pipes. It'll test for lead. You know you're
Speaker 5: receiving good water, but then as it goes through an
Speaker 5: old plumbing system, by the time you drink it, it's
Speaker 5: not so good. So they'll test for lead, they'll test
Speaker 5: for fluoride, they'll test for chlorine chlorine. And that's what
Speaker 5: a reverse osmosis is. It goes through like three if
Speaker 5: you install one, it'll go through like three sets of
Speaker 5: filter and it'll actually filter out those different chemicals that
Speaker 5: are in your water. So that's totally different from the
Speaker 5: water softener. So there's really two that you need to
Speaker 5: pay attention to. One is the water softener that's for hardness,
Speaker 5: like over in the Milford area.
Speaker 1: Very very hard water.
Speaker 5: A lot of heating elements go out because of the
Speaker 5: hard water, and probably a lot of showers don't look
Speaker 5: so good because of the hard water. But get your
Speaker 5: water tests and just see how hard it is, and
Speaker 5: when you're there, do a test on the actual chemicals
Speaker 5: in the water, and then you can make a decision
Speaker 5: if you want to do one nune or both of them.
Speaker 3: So it sounds like, correct me if I'm wrong here,
Speaker 3: but it sounds like if you're really interested in the
Speaker 3: healthiest possible water just in one particular area, and you're
Speaker 3: talking about this reverse osmosis, that would really be the
Speaker 3: focal point. It sounds like, if I hear what you're saying,
Speaker 3: where you might clean food and all those kinds of
Speaker 3: things would be in the kitchen right right.
Speaker 5: I would say probably ninety percent of them are put
Speaker 5: right on the kitchen. Some of them have to have
Speaker 5: another spout through a granite countertop. Yeah, a lot of
Speaker 5: people don't like doing I think it was Culligan. About
Speaker 5: seven eight years ago they came up with a system
Speaker 5: where it's bluetooth. There's a switch and it literally shuts
Speaker 5: the water supply going straight up from the pipes and
Speaker 5: it sends it through the osmosis system and out the spout.
Speaker 5: Bottom line there, not to confuse anybody, is you don't
Speaker 5: have to drill through the countertop. Okay, so that, but
Speaker 5: the kitchen area is certainly tom where you want to
Speaker 5: put it, you know, And quite honestly, it's just like
Speaker 5: a breta water filtering system on steroids.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: I want to get back to something you said a
Speaker 3: minute ago about some of the stuff that would go
Speaker 3: into say the sewage and then into some waterways. Most
Speaker 3: people are on some kind of sewage system. There are
Speaker 3: some of us who are septic. You touched on that
Speaker 3: a minute. If you are someone who has a septic system,
Speaker 3: does this stuff mess that up?
Speaker 5: Well, it's so diluted, I would say no. I mean,
Speaker 5: it's not really a reason to totally walk away from
Speaker 5: the salt type water softeners.
Speaker 1: But I also want to say.
Speaker 5: It depends on how much water you actually use. And
Speaker 5: again that's why it's really good to work with somebody
Speaker 5: to do those studies. Like I was in a home
Speaker 5: depot the other day and they got a home water
Speaker 5: softener for one thousand bucks on the shelf.
Speaker 1: Install it yourself, but I.
Speaker 5: Really recommend working with a plumber or a professional where
Speaker 5: they can really give you what's best for you. I
Speaker 5: think that's what I want to give everybody a shout
Speaker 5: out is, let's do it right. Let's address all the needs.
Speaker 5: Let's address the chemicals, let's address the minerals. Let's address
Speaker 5: how much water you're using. Let's dress how long that
Speaker 5: water softener is gonna last.
Speaker 1: I've had both.
Speaker 5: In my home and the ones over the shelf, you're
Speaker 5: probably gonna get about seven years out of just by
Speaker 5: the mechanics of it, and maybe your better brands you
Speaker 5: might get fifteen twenty years out of it, right, and
Speaker 5: they're probably double the price. But I'll tell you when
Speaker 5: I switched mine out, and this has probably been about
Speaker 5: eight years ago, now I could instantly.
Speaker 1: Tell the difference. There's no doubt there was a pig difference.
Speaker 5: So really, I think the step number one is if
Speaker 5: you're always complaining that it's so hard to clean the shower,
Speaker 5: there's water deposits, there's water spots on the glasses, on
Speaker 5: the shower doors on this that get the water tested.
Speaker 5: It doesn't it doesn't cost you anything. Just let's find
Speaker 5: out what's in the water, and especially if you have
Speaker 5: you know, you were talking like or I was talking
Speaker 5: about over in the Milford area, right, very hard water.
Speaker 5: But there's also some older century type holmes. And I
Speaker 5: don't know what type of service line of water you
Speaker 5: have coming into that home.
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of pipes you have in
Speaker 1: that home.
Speaker 5: And if there are lead pipes, and there's still plenty around,
Speaker 5: you may have some lead in those pipes, not coming
Speaker 5: from the municipality, but coming from your own realm exactly.
Speaker 5: So let's find out what's in the water. It doesn't
Speaker 5: mean everybody has to have one. We were talking about
Speaker 5: New Year's resolution and healthy water. There it is. Let's
Speaker 5: find out what's in the water. Let's do that, you know,
Speaker 5: Let's find out what's in the water and take some action.
Speaker 1: If it's bad news, it's great stuff.
Speaker 3: Gary, you are the best my friend. Again, Happy New Year,
Speaker 3: and thank you for your expertise. This is great stuff.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Tom.
Speaker 5: Look forward to next week.
Speaker 3: Okay, Buddy Gary Sullivan. You can hear them on fifty
Speaker 3: five KRC Saturday and Sundays from nine until noon, and
Speaker 3: syndicated nationally on nearly three hundred radio stations across America. Alright,

Speaker 3: nine two two sixty three. That's nine three nine twenty
Speaker 3: two sixty three southbound seventy one, just under the ten
Speaker 3: minute delay mark. The break lights are continuing between Pfeifer
Speaker 3: and Red Bank, with a broken down at the Reagan
Speaker 3: Highway on the shoulder. Northbound seventy five is the other
Speaker 3: one that's just under the ten minute delay mark. Between

Speaker 6: take their hands off the wheel, but requires them to
Speaker 6: focus on the road. The new version that allows drivers
Speaker 6: to look away, will debut first on Ford's forthcoming thirty
Speaker 6: thousand dollars all electric small pickup truck platform. Expect to
Speaker 6: see this feature in twenty twenty eight, for it is
Speaker 6: still determining how to price it. According to Donaho Bloomberg Radio, the.

Speaker 3: that's true.
Speaker 7: There's a debate on this one Elvis. It's the tribute,
Speaker 7: not him, but this at the Aaron Off. I went
Speaker 7: to this last year because I have a son who
Speaker 7: is a humongous Elvis fan, and it was very fun
Speaker 7: and a lot of the women there did think it
Speaker 7: was really him. I'll tell you that airon off Saturday

Speaker 3: It's like a concert by Elvis impersonators, right, it is, yes, and.
Speaker 7: They really get into it and the women run up
Speaker 7: to that stage like at him. My son looked at
Speaker 7: me and said, they know it's not really him. Right,
Speaker 7: It's pretty funny and we can jump to the I
Speaker 7: have other tribute bands also as well, nailed out at
Speaker 7: the same time. We've got ten which is the Pearl
Speaker 7: Jam band. They play at Boguarts Friday at seven. And
Speaker 7: then the Four Horsemen, which is a Metallica tribute band,
Speaker 7: and they are with the Pretender which is the soop
Speaker 7: Fier band and they are playing Saturday Boguards at seven.
Speaker 1: That sounds fun, that's the right.
Speaker 7: And then there's the World of Oddity's Expo. I've not
Speaker 7: heard of this one, but they, in their own words say,
Speaker 7: we're weird and bizarre are the norm. Uh. There's burlesqued performers,
Speaker 7: tattoo artists, taxi ernie speakers and more at the Sharonville
Speaker 7: Convention Center. That's Saturday eleven to seven. There's also the

Speaker 3: At eight thirty on Saturday A lot you have you
Speaker 3: ever been to that or this the first year they've
Speaker 3: done it.
Speaker 8: I've been.
Speaker 7: I've been a couple of times, and I would go again.
Speaker 7: It really isn't like the one that it's it's it's
Speaker 7: really pretty. It's just a really cool atmosphere. It's a
Speaker 7: great date situation. But check them out because they do
Speaker 7: these to all kinds of music. Tailors Swift to the Beatles,
Speaker 7: to whoever, and so find your favorite music and I
Speaker 7: would go see it if you've never done it.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, that sounds fun. Okay, now we get too.
Speaker 3: If you're going out with a group of friends, single
Speaker 3: not single, doesn't matter there. There's a lot happening every
Speaker 3: weekend for those in that category.
Speaker 7: Exactly so for the guys I'm assuming for the most
Speaker 7: part on this one is a tri state fishing and
Speaker 7: outdoor show. It's getting ready for your hunting season with
Speaker 7: over four vendors selling all your needs for that. And
Speaker 7: that is Saturday nine to six and setday nine to
Speaker 7: four at the Lawrenceburg Event Center. And then I was
Speaker 7: looking for something to kind of talk about the brew tours.
Speaker 7: There's so many of these brew and food tours. I say,
Speaker 7: explore your city. You know, we think we bligh our
Speaker 7: whole lives and we know what's going on. Every time
Speaker 7: I do these tours, I learn something new, for sure.
Speaker 7: So this brew tour that starts on Filey Market and
Speaker 7: it hits the road exploring the evolutions of brewing industry
Speaker 7: in our area, which is such a big thing. And
Speaker 7: then you ended a tap room somewhere drinking some pints
Speaker 7: with your new friends in the group, I'm sure. And
Speaker 7: they'se always Saturday at three, So you can go to
Speaker 7: Filly Market, find that brew tour sign and just google around.
Speaker 7: They have all different tours for those brew tours. Really fun.
Speaker 3: So is this the kind of thing where when I
Speaker 3: hear tour, you know, I'm thinking I'm walking around with
Speaker 3: a bunch of people and you have somebody leading the
Speaker 3: tour and kind of walking you through the different things
Speaker 3: in the history of the industry.
Speaker 1: That kind of thing.
Speaker 7: Yes, And they're usually small groups. But I tell you,
Speaker 7: I have two of my neighbors in my building who
Speaker 7: are the tour guides for the food tours, and I've
Speaker 7: done it with them and it's they don't just talk
Speaker 7: about the beer. They're talking about the buildings in OTR
Speaker 7: and downtown a hole. You learn so much. You can
Speaker 7: answer them questions and they feel like they know everything.
Speaker 7: It's really great. I love it.
Speaker 3: That sounds really cool because there is so much history
Speaker 3: to so many of those buildings down there. And yeah,
Speaker 3: that sounds awesome. I'm gonna say this speed thing, speed
Speaker 3: dating thing for last tell me about Bingo Loco.
Speaker 7: Okay, we have Bingo Loco and this is I did
Speaker 7: this last year at Bogarts and this is hilarious. It's
Speaker 7: a huge It's some of music, you know. I say,
Speaker 7: this is the big girls and I'm out. This is
Speaker 7: five thirty on Saturday. They do. They have like the
Speaker 7: glow sticks. They play music. You're trying to figure it out,
Speaker 7: but it's every era. So everybody's kind of cheating because
Speaker 7: I was asking the young girls at the end of
Speaker 7: our table. They're playing EDM music. I don't know singing
Speaker 7: this they went, but they're looking at us for other music.
Speaker 7: It was kind of funny because everybody's kind of teaming
Speaker 7: up to try to figure it out. But they do
Speaker 7: a lot of giveaways and then they do these little
Speaker 7: dance parties in between each one, and it is a
Speaker 7: it's a definitely a funny night for sure.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 7: Also, there's also the after glow. We didn't talk about that,
Speaker 7: the after glow at the zoo.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, please tell me about that.
Speaker 7: Yeah. So the last adult night event after glow, which
Speaker 7: is you can explore. They still have the lights up
Speaker 7: so you can explore all of that, you know, child free,
Speaker 7: so there's specialty cocktails, snacks, and these interactive photo areas
Speaker 7: and the animals will be out. So this is a
Speaker 7: you know, no kids around enjoying. It's eighteen and up
Speaker 7: from that one. So God is a good one.
Speaker 3: I love that Right now, I want to get to
Speaker 3: this other one because this is something I don't know
Speaker 3: anything about. I don't know if I ever would want
Speaker 3: to know anything about it, but I do find it
Speaker 3: interesting now. I find this kind of stuff really interesting.
Speaker 3: I bring this up because, you know, there are a
Speaker 3: lot of people these days who are single, and you know, look,
Speaker 3: they may not be looking for the love of their life,
Speaker 3: but they certainly would like to be able to spend
Speaker 3: some time with someone in a dating environment. Someone maybe
Speaker 3: they can have some shared common sort of things with. Right,
Speaker 3: And so this speed dating and matchmaking event. Talk about
Speaker 3: the event, and I want to ask you what you
Speaker 3: know about this kind of thing in general?
Speaker 7: Okay, Well I don't know much about this because my
Speaker 7: age cutoff is a little couple of years younger than me. Okay,
Speaker 7: so yeah, So they do these all around town, these
Speaker 7: singles events, And this one is for ages twenty six
Speaker 7: through forty five, and it's at the gather All, which
Speaker 7: is the Norwood Factory fifty two food hall. And this
Speaker 7: is tonight. It's to eight. But you you know, you
Speaker 7: match up. I think they said you get four or
Speaker 7: five five minute dates.
Speaker 1: All right, So let me stop for a second.
Speaker 3: So from what you know about and I understand you
Speaker 3: said you may not know a lot about this one
Speaker 3: in particular, Yeah, but generally on this kind of thing,
Speaker 3: would this be the kind of thing where you fill
Speaker 3: something out ahead of time, so then when you get there,
Speaker 3: is that the way it works?
Speaker 7: I believe, So you kind of find some commonalities and
Speaker 7: I think you match up. This is my thought on this,
Speaker 7: and then you go have five minute conversations I think
Speaker 7: it's five minutes or something like that to try to
Speaker 7: get to know each other and then and then at
Speaker 7: the end you're all there. So I guess if you
Speaker 7: felt the connection or you kind of like someone, maybe
Speaker 7: that's the time you go over and then talk a
Speaker 7: little longer.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I mean, i'd say, really good idea.
Speaker 1: I do too.
Speaker 7: I mean, they need one for one that's a little
Speaker 7: more than forty five about other single people out there.
Speaker 7: But I think it is a good idea because some
Speaker 7: people are just not comfortable. The dating apps are terrible,
Speaker 7: are they really? And so they're oh, Tom, I can
Speaker 7: send you some pictures I did for my friends and
Speaker 7: I it's more of an entertaining you to send each
Speaker 7: other hilarious pictures of.
Speaker 3: People that well, I mean, you know, I bring I
Speaker 3: bring that up because for example, now, like my father
Speaker 3: in law, Okay, my in laws were married for thirty
Speaker 3: something years, right, and they split up, and then Polly
Speaker 3: and I, my wife and I went out to Arizona
Speaker 3: to see my father in law. Were sitting there at
Speaker 3: dinner and he starts asking us about these different apps
Speaker 3: and dating websites, which he had signed up for. He's
Speaker 3: a seventy year old man, but he's really fit and
Speaker 3: he looks good and you know, he's with it and
Speaker 3: all these kinds of things.
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there going you have got to be
Speaker 1: kidding me.
Speaker 7: Yes, yes, it's it's interesting and entertaining, but very rarely,
Speaker 7: is it. Okay, yeah, okay, but some of my friends
Speaker 7: have luck. It's just it's it's you know, it's a match.
Speaker 7: And I would love to start a business in helpskuy
Speaker 7: take pictures for the websites as well. It is that
Speaker 7: they don't realize they're capturing a whole bathroom in the
Speaker 7: background and it looks terrible and it's funny. Yeah, well
Speaker 7: I was in Greece in Italy. Those guys know how
Speaker 7: to take some pictures.

Speaker 3: topic sometimes. Yeah, Michelle, thanks as always for your time.
