You know, the actual interest rate, we're talking about quarter point increments at a rate that very few people in the economy pay, right?

So there is pressure for them to, you know, one or two dissents are okay, but the world does not need a split committee, right?

You give me a prediction.

I ask you for a prediction.

Well, for the last two summers...

I, uh, I've done each of the last two summers, I did a triathlon.

Wow.

And like, this is the year at like a man as a man in my mid fifties, I think this year I'm going to try to get really see what you can do with a 55 year old body.

And the answer, uh, maybe not very much, but, uh, but you know, that's my kind of thing.

I mean, it's sort of a trite new year's resolution, but like, I'll do a couple more of these races going to try to slim down a little bit and just see what, what sparks of youth I can recapture and we'll see how it goes.

I love that.

It's an Olympic distance.

The two I did in the last two summers are Olympic distance.

So you swim about a mile and you ride your bike for about 25 miles and you run for about six miles.
