I mean, yeah, there's always breaking news. Let's just hope for the best. Let's keep it positive. Breaking news. Nintendo's giving up. Oh, man. They're like, yeah, shut it down. Dude, if for some reason Nintendo just toppled out of nowhere.
This is Miyamoto. It's done.
It's over. This is Miyamoto. I quit. And then you just see the dominoes of Nintendo just disappears one day. I think I'll just stop playing video games overall.
That might be the end.
Yeah. I'll just take up a new hobby. I'll get really, I get a lot more into magic and I'm already into magic.
Yeah. That could be a problem. Tim, how are you doing? I'm doing okay. Yeah. Had a rough couple of days, had a pretty vicious sore throat over the weekend. Yeah. And the last couple of days I've just been dealing with like the, the fallout of that. Like I was telling Barrett that I, my throat was like so ravaged. Wow. Wow. But it really is just sore. Okay. Like the last like two days. And now it's like, it just is dealing with what it went through. Yeah. It's just the truth. But now the problem I'm dealing with right now is my whole, like, equilibriums off. Like my ears are popped. Like my whole ear throat, nose situation. It's just like not good. So, uh,
I appreciate your patience as I, I think I had whatever, whatever you had, I had, but like way lighter. Yeah. Yeah. Like as I was going home on Friday, I felt a scratch in my throat and the scratch persisted through like Monday morning. Yeah. But like now I'm good, but it was never, I was always gearing up to wake up the next day and be like, Oh, I'm done.
I haven't been this messed up in, in quite a while. Oh no. Yeah. And I was very concerned about little baby Sammy. I'm like, Oh, this isn't going to be good. But she had her six month doctor appointment two days ago. Because she's six months old. That's crazy. That thing is half a year old. Yeah. I don't know how that happened. But she's looking great. Everything's good. And they checked her. They're like, no signs of cold or no signs of sickness or whatever. So nice. I think we made it past that. But I'm happy to be back here.
