good morning I want to thank our bike Olinsky for his kind introduction and for this wonderful opportunity the beautiful weekend that we've had out here on the west coast here in LA although I do have to tell you that I am looking forward to going back to Florida to fill out a little bit to warm up I don't think we anticipated now don't apologize you're no more in control of the weather than we are in Florida during hurricane season so no apology necessary there's a story of a Jewish woman who schleps to the Himalayas in search of a famous guru you know this one she travels by plane train and rickshaw to reach a Buddhist monastery in Nepal and when she gets there Schmidt Singh exhausted having exerted great effort and spending a lot of money in old Lama and a maroon and saffron robe opens the door and the woman promptly requests a meeting with the Guru so the Lama explains it's impossible the Guru it's time is so valuable he's famous he's lost in meditation and contemplation he's in silent retreat he's meditating on a mountaintop it's impossible but she's not willing to take no for an answer she insists she absolutely must go see the Guru and finally the Lama acquiescence but gives her the following rules number one the meeting must be brief number two she has to bow when she meets and greets the Guru and number three and most importantly she cannot say more than eight words his time is so
