We'll talk about it. He's very macro, very big universe type thing. You guys have no Shanley at all? Are you friends with Shanley at all? Love Shanley. We never met him. So I was very close to him. He was one of my guys. Wait, you knew him? I played in his basketball league every week for six years. Larry Sanders is like my... Larry Sanders, I think, is the best. Gotta get him on the wall.
Why is he not on the wall? There he is. Oh, there he is. Good. He's the best. Oh, and he was so close to Bob. So the fact that they're next to each other makes me so happy. He's probably really close to Norm too. But he was very spiritual also. So it's like that type of feel where he was like a Buddhist kind of. Yes. He would talk about spiritual stuff all the time. He was enlightened. Yes.

Jim has that. I think he was... He was the most famous person in the world, Jim, for so long, I think. Sure, I believe it. That I wonder. We could never relate to what it feels like to be him. Because even when we go to dinner or something, when he walks in, when we're with a famous comedian, some people look and they're excited. But he is. There's nobody that doesn't know who he is. Yeah.

He can't, and like, he wants to, but he can't, and that drives him crazy or whatever. So for a gym, I wonder if it's like, He's amazing.
