Well, I mean, this idea of projections, what's going to happen in the future?
Well, to be quite frank, I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but they require projections.
And, you know, so many of these businesses, you know, they base their projections off what happened last year and it didn't happen the following year.
So, yeah, I mean, it's essentially...
making it up, guesstimates.
We did the numbers.
The numbers showed that we wouldn't make any ice cream, that we wouldn't make any money.
And so we
pumped up the numbers.
Well, one thing I want to tell you about fish food is that that was the last flavor that I was personally involved in.
I was the guy who was bringing test batches to the fish corporate offices.
But in terms of the backstory, I think Wavy Gravy is the flavor that had the craziest backstory.
Of course, it's named after a pretty crazy guy.
You know, he was the guy at Woodstock who got up on the stage and said, what we have in mind is breakfast in bed for $400,000.
And, you know, Wavy Gravy, that's what he's known for is, you know, he calls himself the hippie icon.
He just had his 90th birthday.
He was actually a major anti-war activist.
And he found that if he dressed up as a clown, the cops didn't beat him as much.
So he stuck with that, and when that flavor was being developed, first we had come out with Cherry Garcia, and we decided to come out with another iconic flavor.
And that was around the time when they discovered that the rainforest was being destroyed, and that was the lungs of the world.
