Yes, yes. Sometimes against my will. Yeah. Yeah, just as an aside, as a little storytelling aside, Wim and his beloved brood planted themselves at Kamyon Topanga just a few miles from here, which is our funky little wellness laboratory. And for one reason or another, they couldn't find their way out the driveway. But it was wonderful while it lasted.

And, you know, we had a commercial ice delivery in the morning, right, for the cold plunge, and then a commercial wine delivery in the evening for other purposes. Anyhow, it was a very jovial, jocular crew of people. But I will give Wim much credit for...
