Hearing none, can I have a motion to approve a motion to approve a motion to approve a motion to approve a motion to approve a motion to approve a motion This is also a second reading of the report. I'm going to start around here and get back around to further discussion. All those things that you were saying, that really is unanimous. So, you know, some of the things that we've seen in the last couple of days, this is something that we're really excited about, and I think we should be excited about that. That's all I'm going to drop, but I know we have a few more minutes. And then Jason came up to me and said, you know, you're going to have to do this. And I said, yeah, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And I said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And I said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And I said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And I said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, I'm going to do it today. And he said, well, And I was out in the South, and I was reading some sort of magazine, and all of a sudden, I saw the words, Black Lives Matter. And I was like, well, I've got to get out of here. I've got to get out of here. So we just sat in the back, and we all rolled out into the room, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, and we sat in the back, I think we've got a lot to come out of it. I think we've got a lot to come out of it. I think we've got a lot to come out of it. I think we've got a lot to come out of it. I think we've got a lot to come out of it. I think we've got a lot to come out of it. We've been working with Tamara and Martha, Leslie, and a couple other attorneys on getting to hear his effort. It's been quite kind of easy. Also, Jesse, Wendy, we are waiting on Michelle. Michelle is here soon. She's here with me. She's here on Monday the 3rd of each year. We're not getting very close. Hopefully, by the end of the year, we'll be by the end of the building next month. Yeah. Yes, it's a very good time. I don't mean there's a program for a long list of inventions that people buy and sell. That's a lot of people. That's right. Thank you. Dale, we have several unrest parties, so we are losing interviews here. We have some meetings for that. And last month, we enacted, last month, we signed the community agreement, pointed it in. The communication is totally cabinet. We're doing better than we'd love to do. We did find out through the community that it's for me, but some of us are working on that here in Mississippi. So, we're actually keeping busy with getting the downtown and streets ready for paint. So, it's been difficult. But that's exactly what we're going to do. Exactly what we're going to do. Well, yeah. Thank you for that. Thank you guys for referring last weekend to DCC again. That was a sun blocker that really set me up this coming weekend, having the baseball fundraiser. So we're going to be congratulating things for you too. I made a few signs for the mountain bike trails. Mountain bike trails are all volunteer, and they cut them back, and they take care of these guys. The city doesn't know how to hold them. So I've gotten them to hold them up straight, and I'm going to make a sign that says that there may be many volunteers, and if you'd like to bow, and then we're going to put a QR code in the bottom, and it takes you to the all the way to Facebook page. So they wanted to go into and see the threat of, hey, I did this, and this is what we're doing, and so on and so forth. And J-Cell put the test out last weekend. And then we had a decision on what works. I mentioned the full response that our solar work at Eden Park was not working correctly. We knew one that was working, so we tried to bring it together. And we still need a 2013 solar board that's LED. Instead of having the original 97 solar board that's currently in here, And that kind of helped us be able to move forward. And the other message that came to me was, first of all, from getting the city here is so tough. I don't want to live in a place where we're all separated by a group of people. So it's actually not going to be a good environment. It's going to be a difficult environment. You know, we seem to solve the issue. We're going to get rid of it. We're going to get rid of it. We're going to get rid of it. Yeah, I think that would be pretty cool as well. You know, we have a lot of lines that are pretty big. And I think we have a really good position now to help people in general to think about that. So I don't know if this is going to work out, but I do think that one of the things that we decided to do here at the site, we're going to go ahead and create a new solution. I don't know how many of you have seen the new site. I don't know how many of you have seen the new site. In fact, I've reported all of my hours on a run, fail, and a couple of others. So, I think, you know, the show is going to take a lot more time. I think it's going to take a lot more time. I'm not going to retire. I'm just going to finish it. I'm going to finish it. I'm going to finish it. I'm going to finish it. And I was like, well, that's not going to do it. That's not going to be a C-400G project. But again, I thought it was a good idea. I did not know that I was going to be able to do it. The next few days, I fly out to New York City, where I'm going to be in San Diego. I'm going to be out of the airport. I'm going to be in Miami. I'm going to be in New York City. I'm going to be in New York. I'm going to be in New York. I'm going to be in New York. I'm going to be in New York. I think, you know, I think we're absolutely going to be able to increase the amount of waiting that we have. And so that results in the essentially, like I said, kind of, you know, I was going to ask you, you know, like I said, how that happens. Can you say it? We go there to tell our success story. We saw the value out of it. We don't see it coming. We don't see it coming alive. But what we're talking about, we're having a successful year. And I was the last to fly to the EAA. I was on a meeting with the lawyers. And also, I was listening to the lawyers. And I was listening to my leader. And I had a really good conversation with him. And he said, ladies and gentlemen, you know, this is what we're supposed to see. This is what we're going to do. And we're going to do something. We're going to do something. We're going to do something. I've seen my own body, the existence of the cells in our body, and we say to each other, we're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We're going to have to do that. We didn't follow it down so it was a super 100%. I said, well, once we get to South Carolina, we'll be able to follow it down from there. And I was like, oh, that's a seven or eight percent. And I was like, that was a lot. And they were like, oh, that's a lot. And I was like, oh, that's a lot. So thank you very much for your time. We're going to have three minutes for a talk, and then we're going to move on. This is the end of this webinar. If you have any questions, you can leave them right there. Right in the middle. Thank you. So we've already done a few more sessions for the new folk panel. The staff, excuse me, and the following parties that we'll see. And we'll show you on both of those. So thank you very much for your time. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Who do you think is the president? Thank you, Marcy. Any ideas on any of the missions that Denver or New England might be able to accomplish instead of resigning or something like that? Or is it as well as L.E. Miami? We didn't want to pay the price off the five or so. And we knew that was going to be so good. But we needed to know why they sell it. And what we had said is, if you go so long a list, it's not going to happen. You're going to have to make a real time decision. So I think that's a good point. So, we're working through the memorandum of understanding in the county who were the parents of the expenses of the class meetings from a view in that we need 28.9% of the total cost, and we're only paying $25,000 from the total cost. But we made really good progress in class meetings. I think that it would be wonderful if some of them already saw this fall and they will have the opportunity to do so. It's a holiday weekend, so we've been really good at collaborating with everybody in the county. I know some of the systems are there. I know the library is there. That should stay open. We're hiring. Let's see some numbers. I don't know. But we're waiting on the information. So I'm very close. Close. That's it. As long as I, obviously, I have been proposing and aiming for at least a two-year or three-year, including four years of this program, which, again, is out of the way or is in the way, but I think all of us will receive it. I've been in the direction of planning it, because I've always been thinking about that in the right way. I mean, I've been working on it, and I've been working on it, and I've been working on it ever since. opportunity for us to use your opportunity or whatever. I don't want to say appreciate yourself, but I don't want to say appreciate yourself. So it's not a disabled stereotype that uses the pre-mimicety of ELE. They are permanent. But they are something. So they're using the pre-mimicety of ELE, which means the plan for ELE are, they have arrived in the country. I see that. They have arrived two whole years ago. I don't know if there's any worries for you there about political systems? Yeah. I don't know that. I can't remember. What is it? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. So, besides that, again, we just want to help you with that. So, I really appreciate it. Okay. And let's get ready. All right. We have no audience. We're going to go back to Mars. Do you have something? Okay. Okay. So, then, guys, we'll call the meeting adjourned. Thank you.
