Once you start discussing Instagram with the musicians and their managers, they are all perpetually annoyed at the inability to schedule posts. Not being able to plan posts ahead of time and work on it when you have free time instead of during your work day makes it one of the most annoying apps to deal with. But the funny thing is the reason this is annoying is most people don't know Facebook has made an app where you can schedule both Instagram and Facebook posts easily. So in this video, I'm going to give you a few quick pointers on that so that you can get started by making your music promotions much easier by scheduling Instagram posts. Guess what? A music marketing nerd who's teaching musicians how to promote themselves from 0 to 10,000 fans and this is news formation. So first off, shout out to your viewer Shayla M who tipped me off to that Facebook has both a website for desktop and a mobile app called Creator Studio. This is what's going to allow us to schedule the posts. I find this especially helpful since I do a bunch of video editing on desktop and photo retouching. So Instagram has always been especially annoying as I like to leave my phone far from me while I work. Anyway, you can use this app with both your phone or desktop. But for the sake of this tutorial, let's do this on desktop. Also, you can easily use this app to schedule the same posts for Facebook and make your life super easy. So one caveat before I show you this, you do need to enable your account as a business account on Instagram since it seems inevitable that Facebook will pull the switch they did with their platform where they will start charging businesses to reach fans for each post. But once you have done that, all you need to do is select your account and start making a post. Okay, so when you sign into the Creator Studio, you need to first select that you want to Instagram instead of Facebook. So after I do that, I select the account I want to use. So I'm going to go to create a post for the Instagram feed. So the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to add the content so I can get inspired on what to write. Well, yeah, look at that great picture of the in cell hype beast. Okay, so that's posted up but what I'll always add a location. So let's do where I live. Then I'm going to type my caption. I'm going to say with that drip that gets me no play, you know how the in cell be very unbranded for the in cell hype beast. Okay, then we're going to click schedule. And so from there, we can do the schedule of when we're going to post. So I'm going to post this in the future at the time that I've learned from my previous video on Instagram, which you should watch on how to know when to schedule your posts, which I has linked now and in the card. And I will put it in the proper time that my fans are mostly online. And I will schedule it for them. And if you want to look through the content library, you can see all the posts you've made before, then you can recontextualize them and know you can plan just to note you can only do Instagram feed and IGTV posts, which is not fun. And if you want to get them on Facebook, you need to either share from the account. I have it set so that all my posts go to Facebook that come from the account from the main feed because I believe you should do that. But if that's not your strategy, you don't have to do it. And you can do separate posts from here by just clicking on that Facebook icon and getting started here. That's it. And if you have any tips on scheduling Instagram posts, I'd love to hear them in the comments. Thanks for watching. Am I missing anything? Is there any other way you would have done this? I need to know your questions and what no one else is telling you, since I want to answer them. So leave them in the comments, since I answer every comment in every post. I hope you liked this video.

And I'm going to be breaking down the concepts in this video along with how to promote your music and how to make songs you're happy with in the future.

the crowd. Right, so you know. That's what I mean. Exactly. Yeah, it just, but. Who got charged later, by the way. And we act like we're free. We act like we're free in the United States but we haven't been free since what you want to call the civil war, which wasn't the civil war. Had two presidents and two established governments. So it was a war between two countries. They keep calling the civil war because Abraham Lincoln did not want to acknowledge the South as its own entity. That was one of the really hate connecting anything going on now to the civil war. I really hate it. Like why? Why? What connection is there? There's none. Well, I'll tell you, the Libra Code. That's the connection. Explain, I don't know about this. Okay, the Libra Code is, when two warring countries are fighting, in order for the war to end, there has to be a peace treaty of surrender. We only had two generals surrender, two armies in West Virginia. The Libra Code states that if you, like when I was in Iraq, we were the invading army at the time. We were the ones in control of everything. We had custody. If the people wanted to go out and go places, they had to get a pass, a piece of paper and permission from the army to go from point A to point B. Right, under martial law situation, right. That's exactly how that war treaty was never signed as surrender. It was between two armies, not between two countries. Are you like some kind of Confederate holdout or something? What is this? No, no, no, I meant it. No, no, you're misinterpreting what I'm saying. We are still under the War Powers Act. If you look right now, they've never gotten rid of the War Powers Act. Everywhere you go, you're surveilled. People talk about what a Fourth Amendment, we got to write it a Fourth Amendment. Really? Well, the government's convinced you, with your Fourth Amendment, to put that your personal property on the back of your private automobile, when you go out in public. But don't worry, nobody else can read it, except the government. That's a really good point, actually. That's a really good point. That's a really good point, actually. You know what? I never had considered that, but you're right. Like, we willingly give up our Fourth Amendment by putting our license plate on there. That's, I had never even thought about that, but you're right. It's weird. That's a weird, because you gotta, like if you have a vehicle, you've gotta be able to connect that to a person, right? But you are getting value out of that, right? But if it's your private property that you're using for travel, you're not required, that's for, see, when it all started out with the- Well, you know what it should do? You know what it should do? The license plate should be, it should reference a very basic set of information that I don't know. There needs to be some mechanism there to protect people. You're right. That's weird. I never thought about that, but you're right. It is. It's called malum in say versus malum prohibitum. Malum in say is if there's a victim, there's a crime. If I'm a cop and I'm going on the highway and someone wrecks into someone else, I come and I take a report. I get both of them's information and dispense it to the appropriate parties. If one person is dead, the other person, whether it be vehicle or homicide, involuntary manslaughter, which is what Derek Chauvin should have gotten, by the way, not murder. I agree. I totally agree. Yeah, it was like, what do you call it when a doctor messes up malpractice? Malpractice. Malpractice, yeah. Well, yeah, he should have got involuntary manslaughter. Something equivalent to that, yeah. Man. What I'm getting from this is that in order for me to fix the nation, I have to take the license plate off my car. No, no. I know we're rambling here. No, no, we're rambling, but that is interesting, actually. I've always been interested by the license plate because some, like my city included, they set up these cameras, and they just randomly take your picture as you're driving of your license plate, right? They've always been found unconstitutional on multiple occasions within court and law. No, I agree, but no, but it's weird because it's public photography, right? Well, no, because if it's done on behalf of the state, it is not public photography. No, but they are legal. They're legal here. No, they are not. If you actually took it up to the court, if you challenged it on a constitutional basis, they violated your Fourth Amendment rights. No, I agree, but I always say it is actually a state doing that. So he's the problem. The problem is, OK, and I'm going to throw this to my man, Bill Vett. I understand what you're saying. You're not exactly wrong, but you're not exactly right either because there is too much faith in the institution of America, the corporation of America by the populace. You would have to have overwhelming populace adherence to this part of the process. In other words, you would have to change the culture. They call it the government belief system. Yeah, hold on. Hold on. So you're suggesting to amend the Constitution, right? No, I'm not. Not you, Sparky. Not you, Sparky. This is a question for, I'm sorry, did you or military? Mill that. Yeah, military. OK, yes. For you, because we got to digress a little bit, right? I don't mean to interrupt. Get on camera if you can, too, by the way. Sorry. I wish I could. I don't know how to do that. Whatever. Very good. I know, I know. Sorry, I'm sorry. Yeah, I'm sorry. The phone app is kind of garbage, man. The phone app. Sorry, Riddle. Good, good. No, it's all good. I was just curious. OK, so we're digressing. OK, so your problem is how the police work, right? Because you were stating before that you don't like all. You said all police because they're under federal rule, right? You said all police are bad people. That's what you and Joan also agreed upon. Yeah, I agree that all police right now currently bad. Are bad. Are they just all bad? I don't say all police. No, I say all police. I think the institution has been. OK, so Joan's retracting his agreement. And you're not retracting. I think you did it. Yes, I'll stick with it. I'll stick with it. I don't agree with it. Oh, you stick with it. OK, OK, great. So you're sticking with it now. So OK, so then you guys are saying all police. And I'm talking about not a federal. You're saying that federal since they're all federal now. But I mean local police. Inherently. OK, so what do you mean? So how do you fix that? Like, what is your solution for a local camp? It really baffles me. It really does when I think about it just logically. What was you without without an entire tangents on all of our amendments and our laws and our in our history of rule? How can you summarize that quickly enough in a couple minutes, baby, that you might be able to give a possible solution to fix this problem that we have with our local police that is supposedly controlled by our federal law enforcement? Yeah. How could you? It's not federal law enforcement. But I just think inherently in a position, I just think when you put humans in that position, they will inherently turn against the populace as like an enemy just just because like. And I and I compare it to listen, listen, I compare it to working retail as I've done. You when you work. And can you guys hear me? So yeah, like you start off good, right? And you're happy and you love people. But then over time, like people where you down, like it just like you start hating people and like anybody towards retail understands what I mean. Imagine being a police officer and the elements you have to deal with like on a daily basis over time. It's just going to turn you into a tyrant. It's just will. OK, so hold on. So you're saying just real quick to isolate just what you said before others go on. And I don't mean to interrupt, by the way. Yeah, I just I'm just trying to figure out. OK, so your statement was police are being tyrants because quote unquote tyrants going off of what you said, right? Because they're being worn down mentally and emotionally. Well, that's part of it. Another part is just total ignorance of both the law and also constitutional rights, even though they take an oath to the Constitution and to uphold constitutional rights, which means protecting people's constitutional rights. They just don't know what they are. And in fact, a lot of them seem to think it's like a joke or some sort of abstract. They, in fact, a lot of police seem to think the Constitution, if you stand up for your constitutional rights, you are a sovereign citizen or some sort of extremist, if you do that.  Yeah, it's. But you guys, but you're saying that basically in your point of view, I'm not saying directly, not quoting you, but you guys mean like that they're actually the extremists. Well, because they're not following the Constitution. Right, they're not individuals. Right, yeah, yeah, for sure. But you're saying all these police, so you think that all of these police. Why is there so many? Why is it that like for the last five years, I've seen this never ending stream of videos of these and who do you think pushes the negativity towards police? It's not pushing a negativity. It's like people. Let me explain this to you. Obviously you haven't looked into this at all, Riddle. Are you saying I haven't looked into this at all? I haven't looked at it at all. So why would you make sense? Why have you explained this like years worth of like video of police harassing and blatantly abusing people's rights?  Can you easily explain that? Do you know what you're talking about? I mean, yes, there's terrible things that happen by cops. Absolutely happens a lot. OK, that's like one aspect, though. But you're saying all of them and guess what's happening right now. The more the more let me ask you a question. No, let him finish. Let him finish. Stop. But you're also you also have these recordings. These personal cams, right? On police officers. And who are they helping out more nowadays with these shootings? Well, I mean, you don't think that there's a media push. And who do you think funds the media and has investments in the media? And you don't think the media is pushing an entire campaign against local police? No. Nope. You said nope. Nope. No, you see. So there's basically it's nothing at all. It stopped that from got out. Let me let me explain you how the game works.  Can I respond? Can I respond to what you say? Go ahead. Yeah. Yeah, go ahead. Well, you were just talking about like all cops do this and stuff. And it's like I'm not blaming all cops here. Here's the issue. Here's the issue. Here's why I saw all cops in this. And this when it comes to knowing about rights and the laws, OK, it seems like from what I've seen over the years now, this is a year. Is this come from a guy who was like, dude, I'm a pro police guy. You know where I'm coming from. My brother is a Marine vet. You never once, you never once. OK, maybe you don't. You haven't known me that long, I guess, Riddle. Yes, I have. For years. Every time that he saw a police, always negatively. Well, we have a negative run in with him myself. And you probably know about that. I think you've done that. But yes, I have. But I've always been pro like during the whole BLM thing, like I was always like on the side of the police through that. And I do. I've always been. I've always been a pro cop guy. But over like the last few years, I have seen more and more and more evidence. And I don't think it's racial. I've told you that. I've told everybody that. In fact, I've always said from the beginning, even when the BLM things were going on, that I thought that make. Hold on, stop. That making a racial thing was diverting from the to fixing the issue that was there. Because it divides focus on the issue, right? So but what I'm saying is that there definitely is an issue. No, OK. So you know, you said that like you don't think that it's about a racial issue with police. Right. I don't think it's a racial thing. I think it affects us all, regardless. OK, but earlier tonight, you said that it was there was a big racial thing with. Oh, no, no. I was saying that I would not. No, I said that I'm not. I would not be surprised. Like I would not surprise. And I think there probably is some sort of a racial element in there. Like if you look at if you look at a pie chart of the issue, right, there's like there's a there's a cut out there. That's racial, right? Yeah, OK. Yeah, but you didn't say I wouldn't be surprised. You said that you stated it as no, no, I said that. I said that. Yeah, that is probably where we have a pie chart of this. There is a slice that is racial for sure. I would not doubt that.  There is. I agree. They're dumb.  I agree. I agree. There is.  However, your guys' take is that it's the vast majority, if not all, according to military vet. Yeah, I think I think so. Here's the thing. I think there's a lot of police who are not dumb. OK, they're not dumb. But they have been not trained correctly. They still do not.   And they have it in their heads that if somebody stands up for the rights, one, that's a sign that there is suspicion of guilt of breaking some law or something. And two, that they're an extremist or something. Like there's something crazy about them. And a lot of cops hold that belief, even though they themselves take an oath to the Constitution. It's weird. It's this weird disconnect with the police. Yeah, it's weird. Hold on, hold on. So it's a drug test. It's real. It's definitely real. And when you gave, when you sworn your oath to the Constitution, did you know what you were swearing to? I don't think most of them don't. I think they just say the words. I don't really think about it. The majority of people don't know exactly what they are. What they are swearing to begin with. And the police are not trained properly. The military are not trained properly. And they want you to remain ignorant because, like we saw during the COVID times, you saw a lot of cops that were enforcing unconstitutional edicts made by mayors, governors and things like that.  And I said, no, it was an unconstitutional edict passed by the mayor through executive order. And I refused to comply. I'll approve it. You're law enforcement and not feelings enforcement mofo. And he actually, he wrote me a ticket. I took it to court and I actually got rid of it. Nice. But I had to fight. I had to fight. You got to. You got to flex them rights. Like a way. We have to do it. I was lucky that I didn't have some basic judge that didn't see it as disrespecting his authority. And that's what you see a lot of cops. I mean, you even see that with soldiers when an NCO tells you to do something and you go, I'm not going to do it. What's first thing they do, Drone? What's first thing they do? If they do something, you don't do it. L-L-O-R. Or they go, are you denying? Are you refusing? Oh, you're talking about. I'm off with Shudgeon. Oh, yeah. Because they want to set you up for that Article 15. All it is, a lot of people who go into law enforcement and stuff, they sit there and they see any type of pushback as you disrespecting them. You see they see it as an affront to their authority.  It's like a gang. And if you're in the gang and then you start doing things that are outside of the gang's beliefs, they start making you feel like an outsider. I mean, that's just how it is. I used to scoff at the comparison of the police to gangs. Now I get it. I get it. I totally get it. Well, it was scary. I can't even see it now. Let me tell you a small story of how I ended up getting out of the department. Around one night, I'm in a patrol car. And four of the cops is already on scene. I pull up and they're literally beating the hell out of this guy. And they could have just put him in custody. Whatever it was he was doing wrong, they could have put him in custody, put him back in the patrol car. But instead, they wanted to put him on the ground, into the knees, and the fist, and the kicking, and all that. Come to find out the guy, Jay Walker. Now, when I found this out. They do that a lot. They do that kind of stuff a lot. Yeah, when I found this out, I decided to write my report. Well, the chief said, we all got to get together to make sure that our timelines were congruent. And I said, well, I'm not going to fabricate. I'll just write what I saw. And I wrote what I saw.  No, I'm not. I just write what I saw. They did not submit my report because it went against the narrative. The guy was simply a great walker.  And I said, you know what? I can't work for a place like this. And when I decided, after that, I just said, well, I'm going to a different line of work. Got a department of correction for a while. Then the Pentagon called me up and said, we heard you speak seven languages. And we all heard that you could see the net of applause at you went to Guantico. I said, yeah, well, we got a job for you. So I went to Iraq and started off working over there. Nice, dude. Interesting. I want to talk to you later, by the way. Yeah, PSD works, bodyguard work, worked security at the airport. And then when they got the dogs over there, I ended up having to door kick it because the military sit around the corner. It was our dogs working for a company called Puster Battles of all companies. But I was working with the dog catcher people and the dog handlers. So I ended up being a door kicker, being the first one going into a door. Then after that job, I went over to EODT. And they said, well, we're going to use you for some of your shooting skills. And I'm the guy that shot Alaskan County. So there you go. I was that guy. Now, I was over there six and a half years long with any other American in the country. I saw all kind of stuff, all kind of corruption where our money came in through Bering Point. I got put up on a Baghdad International Airport. The Vizians that I wanted to help guard, I watched all of them get killed. I've lost whole entire teams. I've been out on PSD missions where my entire group got killed but me. So I got a little bit of problems with that. Well, really? Yes. But here's the thing. Well, I didn't go unscathed. I've been wounded enough to where now I'm 100% disabled, but, you know. Damn, dude, I would like to hear these stories, maybe we have a story to tell us these stories. Would you like to do that, Michael Chance? What's that? I said, maybe we can plan another stream. We can just talk about the stories of stuff you've gone through. Yeah. Well, a lot of people said I need to write a book, you know, or make a movie or something, you know? Yeah. But new age sounds very interesting.  I was there the day she arrived and she wasn't in any danger whatsoever. But that's another... Really? Interesting. What's your name? John Pittman, P-I-T-T-M-A-N. I go by military band. Yep. But you can look up my best friend who was over there. He got killed. But at any rate... Well, who are you with? Well, at that time, when I was with EODT, we were doing PSD bodyguard. What we were doing is we would take important people, whether they'd be electricians, or we have to take them in vehicles up armored vehicles. Well, when I started out, up armor simply means... You were with a military bodyguard or like a private firm? Yeah, I was just 15 contractor. That's it. Contractor? But, yeah, contractor. But we would take it. My brother was a contractor, too. That's right, right. I've worked for companies like EODT, like I said, Custer Battle, Black Rock. You were with Black Rock, huh? Yeah, I flew with a little bird for a while. Were you in Iraq? Were you in Iraq like... Why were you in Black Rock? What years were you in Iraq? I'm the got-it-cut Black Rocks beat down on that bridge. Hold on, no, what years? Hold on, what years were you there? The end of 2003 to 2009. Okay, so you were there during like real controversial years of Black Rock. Do you mean Black Water or Black Rock? Black Water, excuse me, yeah, Black Water. Oh, okay. Okay, Black Water. Makes sense now. Yeah, I was, yeah, that's funny, that's funny. I was talking about Black Rock today, so we stuck them ahead. Black Rock. So you were with Black Water, huh? Black Rock was in State Street. Okay. Yeah, I was on another channel today, so yeah. John Pittman with Black Water. Yeah. Okay. And I worked with Chameleon for a while over there. You know, a few groups.  That's like when it was like the hottest. Well, the hottest at that time was Airport Road, going from the Green Zone, from checkpoint one to checkpoint 12. That was the hottest area you've had. I don't know what that means. Oh, they're two checkpoints. Checkpoint one is where you go into the airport, a Baghdad in Russia airport, Biop, and then the Green Zone is checkpoint 12. Yes, when you're going in where? So you're talking like 2007 era? Well, no, the Airport Road's been there since the beginning of Baghdad.  The Green Zone? How long is the Green Zone in there? It's only like a three and a half to four mile stretch from actual Biop to Green Zone proper. But it was literally the most dangerous area. People got hit in there all the time. Interesting. Okay. Yeah.  I would love to like hear all your stories. For the first time ever got shot is Operation Just Cause We Want To. You ever heard of that one? Negative. Operation Just Cause, Panama, Amiga, Noriega. I was working down there at that time. I was working with CID and DEA. You're talking like 80s? Yeah. I was like late 80s or I was like 89, 90. Yeah, I'll be 60 years old about 14 days. Okay. Really? Yeah. Interesting. I mean, I helped close Howard. You do what? Hey, so I just said a curiosity. I have family in the military. Can you like link what you were from? I'm sorry? Can you link where you were from within the military? Where I was from within the military. You mean where I'm from? That's just the bill. Well, you were. No, he's just interested. He's just interested in like what? Who you were affiliated with in the military. Okay. Well, see, here's the funny part. Yeah, I did go to Guanaco for sniper school and I did get training through different languages.  How did you learn those languages now? I was a military policeman. I'm the old black and I. Being a military policeman doesn't really give you the credentials to do a lot of the things that I did over there. Most people did things that I did and they always made fun of me. I was like the black shadow of the group. If I got to a new company, they had Navy SEALs in there. They had green Berets in there. They had former guys that had worked in Vietnam. And then here comes this military police guy. They're like, how did you get with this group? You know, so it was always funny that I was probably what you call the least qualified for the work that I did over there. And I. Where did they send you? You said you speak seven languages and that's actually pretty interesting. Where did the, what, what institution they send you to for that? Nothing. I just, I just loved language. Even though it's not like. That makes sense. I mean, you gotta have a love. You gotta have a love for it to know that, right? You gotta have some sort of like extraordinary interest in that to know seven languages. Actually, I found out that people who have a problem with reading and writing in English usually have a better understanding of other languages. They learn other languages extremely quick. You get these people in learning disability classes. They can't spell in English.  No, it's a C. Okay, sometimes why? What is that? The English language is tore up. But because the brain thinks so precise in other languages like Spanish, if you could say the alphabet, you can learn to speak it quickly. The same in German. If you can read it, you can write it. You can speak it. The languages don't differentiate like English does. Language is the hardest language in the world to learn. More than French? I would argue. I thought it was Mandarin. I thought Mandarin. Yeah, I think Chinese was probably the two hardest. Because Chinese has individual symbols for every different word. There's like over 2,000, there's like 2,000 characters for every word. Yeah, I don't speak Mandarin, but I don't think I've learned it though.  I mean, the Korean's pretty simple. I mean, it couldn't be that much different. You know what, you sound like a badass. Okay, so you know what you're reminding me of? What's that one guy? This guy is super interesting. I'm like... Yeah, I know, super interesting. Yeah, I agree, I agree. He's interesting. So I'm interested in this. So like, you know what you remind me of is, what's the name from, what's it called? That one TV show that came out like five, six years ago. Karate Kid. Oh yeah, Cobra Kai. Yeah, you remind me of that one sensei that came back in like season two or three from Vietnam, all traumatized. Yeah. Was he a badass? What was his name? I don't consider myself a badass.  Oh, okay, sure. Yeah, what I'm saying is like, what's his name? What's his name again? I'm not sure. We're going to name him John. John Crease. Crease, yes. Are we in the hunt here? Are we in the hunt? We have a cre... We have a John Crease on midst us. We should be lucky, we should only be lucky. Look, when I was over there one time, I was the driver of a vehicle and a brand new guy and this guy was roided out. I wanted to do roids, but I couldn't afford them. My wife back in the States was spending all my money fast and I could freaking make it. But this guy was roided out, new weapons and arms like you would believe. He could tell you anything about any part of almost any weapon. He was amazing at his craft, his field. He knew exactly what he was going to do. One day we're in a car, we're driving, we're taking clients. They were working for a sunny side, I think it was the name of the company. It was an electric company and we were going down to Sedune. That's just on the other side of the green zone. And we got hit, but how we got hit was he got all of hers a little, that's all I heard. I'm driving and I looked over and he slumped over in his seat. Now this guy was prepared for anybody and anything. A little bullet came through the window right there and we had bulletproof glass, but it came through at the point of where that seal was between the passenger window and then the front window, that part that bar goes down.  So it didn't matter how much. So it didn't matter how much preparing you were. Didn't matter how good you were. If death's coming for you, that's it. I got back to the place of my aunts, like, well, I prayed and prayed and prayed and you made it. I'm like, well, there's a lot of people that prayed. My roommate that I had for eight months, his family of three children, his wife, they were Christian going, they went to church every day. I'm sure they prayed for their husband.  It's a crapshoot. All it is is you draw a dice every day, draw a dice. There are no heroes. Yeah, I'll show you guys a real life example of that here. As soon as I can find it here. But yeah, I just saw a video today of a drone recording a trench, Russian trench.  And next thing he just slumps over. It's like a sniper shot. You don't want to show that on YouTube. I'm not going to show it, but I'm just saying that's what it is. I can't find it. Yeah, don't get me wrong. It's like a drone looking down, right? The guy pops up over the trench.  It's like that's just how it is. Don't get me wrong. This guy wasn't a braggart. He didn't talk a big game or anything. He just was a big game. You know what I'm saying? The 315, 31 inch waist kind of guy.  Tillman? Pat Tillman, Pat Tillman. Yeah, Pat Tillman. Yeah. Basically, basically Conan earned that in real life.  Pat Tillman earned that. Don't get me wrong. I'm not one of these stolen valor guys.  And I don't think I'm a billy badass. I used to at one time run, I thought I was going to be in the marathon. I thought I was going to go to the Olympics to Jimmy Carter Boycott. I was getting ready to go to national to compete. I was just close to going under a four minute mile. And we never had an opportunity to go. This is man. This is like an interesting face we have here. He's a six million dollar man is what he is. Is this a real person? Are we dealing with mental illness here? No, but the thing about it is, is now I get tired walking up a flight of steps. I'm 60 years old, man. I got nothing to prove to anybody. You know, I had a good life. I had a good run. Dude, you got like 20 or 30 more years left. Don't talk like that. Well, maybe I wish I could say that. Yeah, I hope I got two more years left. You know what I'm saying? You got sure you're going to be like, I mean, I'm getting back into working out or getting back into running 30 more years. Oh, yeah, man.  But we don't know. Don't get me wrong. I don't I don't consider myself unhealthy, but we we don't know if we got tomorrow morning. You know what I mean? No, but I'm going to project myself another like good 40, 50, 60, 70, 100 years, you know, I would never want that. My so so my grandmother, she turned 105 this this year and lover to death. Wonderful woman. Hello, gorgeous, godly woman. But she's miserable because she has no peers that where she lives, she lives in assisted living home because of course she finally she finally, you know, moved out of her house at 102. Moving to the assisted living home so she could be cared for better. The closest person to her age is 25 year and that's got to be dude, that's got to be like insanely just sad. But friends don't have to be the same age. If you have companions, it can be depressing that you're the oldest one around, but I don't think it means no, but but you can't. I'm talking about someone that lived through the Great Depression and stuff like that. And no one understands those that no one understands that point of view around her and things like that. So it has to be lonely. It has to be isolating. And I mean, I love her to death and I want nothing but the best for her. But in all reality, she's not a very happy woman. You know, mind and her body are good and that's awesome. Well, I mean, she she's legally blind. She lost most of her hearing probably in the early 2000s. She lost her smell in the 80s. I mean, she just she's going to have her world right now. Blind and deaf doesn't sound so bad. Well, hey, guys, I'm I'm just going to jump in here real quick and in the stream because we've been going for three almost and a half hours and we're kind of trailing off here. And hey, I'm going to hang out. I'm going to stay here and I encourage everybody that's watching right now in the channel to go ahead and join us. We'll continue this for a while. But I'm going to end the stream. Anybody who wants to get do any plugs or anything. I welcome you to that now. I have a plug, actually. Yeah. Turn the camera off first. Oh, God, he's going to plug the. OK, go ahead. Yeah, you're liberal. I'm a liberal. OK. Yeah, you're liberal when it comes to police, you're liberal for sure. I am. Oh, yeah.  You are. I'm a classic. I never did I actually had you. May I say something about the police thing real quick when I say that there are no good cops? Let me explain that real quick. I don't wrap it up on that. Really reason to say that is simply this, when you join the police, I believe a lot of good guys join the police for good reasons. Like a lot of good people joined the military for the reason, but not all the heroes. A lot of guys that joined the military joined the military for things like school. They joined things for, you know, for the beneficiary. We get a lot of guys joined the military because they got in trouble with the law and that's an automaton. Go join the military, go to prison. But the thing is, is when it comes to cops, none of this could be transpiring what we see that's going on right now. If there were a lot of good cops, they just simply comes down to that. The institution itself has been so corrupted. If I was a cop in there right now, I'd be trying to fight with every single one of them every day. I'd be arresting cops left and right. That's not happening. It's just simply not happening. You want to find a good cop? It's like finding Waldo. Look at all the videos that's going on. All the guys that's doing these first amendment artists or second amendment artists, bought the good cop. I'm not saying that I haven't seen one or two, but that's it. I want to see one or two.  They know nothing about them. And they almost think that if you do know about them, that makes you some sort of threat or suspicion to them. It's weird. It's crazy. Yeah, it is. It's like no one puts them in check. You know, it's human nature. It's absolutely human nature. I live in the countryside. Well, I don't have my own trash dump here. So I got to go dumping it at a centralized facility where they got these bays. So when I drive up, these guys that's working at the trash dump, I mean, they're just there to make sure that the trash is off the ground. They take that thing and that authority to an infinite level.  What's what's the state doing? I say, well, where's all this going to that same place where it all gets put in the same hole? But you give them a little bit of power and they want to rough shot it. Okay, what state do you live in? I live in North Carolina. I love going to the dump, man. I'm crazy, but... I'm up here, Sparta, brother. What's that? I'm up here, Sparta. Sparta? Yeah, Sparta. Elkins? I don't know that. Well, damn. I just want to plug real quick before we go into it for this server. Upcoming on Sunday, January 21st at 8.30 p.m., we were having a music trivia night. We had a lot of fun last time and I invite you all to come.  It was a lot of fun. That's 10 days away, bro. That's 10 days. You got nothing soon or to plug? We have next Thursday. We have Saturdays. I don't have anything during that because people need to give me ideas. All right, okay. I have the Saturday music. Well, you mean ideas for trivia night or? No, just any events that people want to have. I will work with the vet to set up another day in the future if he wants to spend time talking story and people can enjoy that if DroneTech wants to stream it. I would love to listen to that. So, me too.  I mean, that's in a nutshell. I can build a computer. I've built two of them right now, but I don't know the first thing about the equipment that I'm going to need. Well, right now, I'm not even on a camera here. If one of you guys could help me, I'd like to start my own show. I really would. Yeah, we got you back. This Discord server will be good for that. Ask questions and people will help you out. Oh yeah. I didn't even, I've never been on Discord server before. So, I gotta go and help. I will help you out. I would appreciate the hell out of it because I mean, I'm looking at getting a road system as far as microphones. I want to get the road. Master two, I think it's called. Two pro. And I want to get about four road microphones. I plan on doing a sit-in, kind of like the way they do with that channel, whatever, or Joe Rogan or something like that. We'll get four or five guests to sit. And I'm also, I'm looking at what kind of camera system I want to need. I don't really want to go with the webcam thing, Logitech, I'm thinking more like a couple of digital SLR cameras and a hookup with a capture card. You know what I mean? You're talking about a $3,000 to $5,000 set up, man. Yeah, I got that. Okay. Make sure those cameras will run on cord. Some of them stupidly only run on the battery and they don't have like supplementary power when you plug them in. It's an important thing if you're going to run long streams. And also obviously you want to get digital microphones that are like probably with USB connectors. No. I would think no. Digital is terrible. It's actually better to run analog for audio. It runs cleaner, has less problems. Doesn't cause problems with the computer because it's less stressful a computer. I was running digital for the longest and now I run XLR for audio and it works so much better. I have a question. My hobby is digital graphics. I like doing 3D graphics. So I work with things like Maya, Blender and Mub Box and stuff like that. I'm an artist, you know, since I'm not working anymore I got to have something to do, right? I'd like to go back to work, you know? And people say, well, I'd love a day and time where you don't have to work anymore. Trust me, you don't. No. You don't have that. You got to have a purpose in life. It takes the meaning out of living. It does. It zaps your room. I don't think I've aged anymore than I have since the time I stopped working. You know, it just, it comes on your quit. You got to keep busy. You got to keep moving. But so I do, I do a lot of artwork and stuff and I'm not unknown to computers. It's just trying to get, trying to get, I hear music. Thanks, Nair. I do a lot of digital art. If you're really serious in the digital art you may want to get a touch sensitive screen. Oh, I have that. Utilize, like I utilize Photoshop for a lot of stuff. Yep. I even do animations, so. Oh really, we got to get together then. I'll show you some of my work. But the thing is, is I have a trouble picking out which digital SLRs that I want. That's one. I know I want the road system and then I got to figure out how I'm going to set it up. I got two computers that I've set up now. One of them has a dual 4090 system. You know the 4090, NVIDIA 4090 graphics cards? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so, and it's 128 gig RAM. It'll pretty much push anything. Wait, is it overclocked with TI or what? Say it again. Is it overclocked with TI? Is it overclocked? It's overclocked. Do you mean Tia the wrapper? I don't, I don't overclock my systems. I don't overclock them. Now, are they, are they, they got a lot of work to them? So no. I use a lot of RGB. Is it, is it 4090? You said 4090, right? I have a dual 4090, and then I have a, that's one of the computers I got. 4090 TI, so. Yep. So about a 3,000. So what are you, what are you at your age, you had that? This is where I was trying to get to. All right, folks. I'm going to go ahead and wrap this up right now. I appreciate you all watching. It's been going on for about three and a half hours now. I am ready to go to sleep. I still have like a lot of stuff to do. I got to get up early. You all know my whole thing. I'm a stay-at-home dad.  It's getting late. I got to get to bed, but I appreciate you all watching. I, the link for the Discord is in the description. If you'd like to support me or come to our Discord, I really appreciate both. And make sure to keep checking back for new videos. Thanks for watching.


Welcome to Destination Hometown. I'm Kim Mitchell, special events coordinator for the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation Department. I would like to send an invitation to you to spend this weekend with us here at Finley Park. On Friday, we'll be showing Jumanji, the movie starring Kevin Hart and The Rock. We invite you to bring your lawn chairs, your picnic baskets, and come on out and have a good time. The movie is free. We'll have popcorn, iceis, drinks for you to have if you don't have your own. It'll be a fun time for the whole family. And on Saturday, we'll have the free concert at Finley Park featuring the Dazz Band. You know the one, but let it whip.  But prior to the show, we'll be doing karaoke idol. So if you can sing a little bit and you want a chance to win some money, come on out early at six o'clock, register for karaoke idol. That'll start at seven and the Dazz Band go on at eight. So movies on Friday, concerts on Saturday, come on out to Finley Park and have a good time.


The study found that cats supplemented with HAMSP had higher levels of propionic acid in their feces, suggesting that this type of starch may be better at providing an alternative source of energy for cats. Additionally, the study also found that these cats had lower levels of ammonia in their feces, which suggests that they may have been able to spare some of their amino acids for protein synthesis instead of being used for gluconeogenesis.

This is stock number 20J49. We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. You're new and used Jeep Grand Cherokee headquarters. Today we are checking out this brand new 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo e-Package. This one is in Diamond Black, has the 3.6 liter Pentastar V6 motor, which gets 25 on the highway, 18 city for a combined total of 21 average. This one comes with the 18 inch and 8.4 group. So that's why it's got the little bit different rims on it. And it's a customer-preferred package of 2 BE, I believe as the package. Diamond Black Pearl is the color. We shoot all of our videos in 1080p, 60 frames per second. So if you have HD capabilities, turn them on right now because it's like you're right here looking at the vehicle with me. And definitely your best way to check out the vehicle before seeing it in person. Speaking of those 18 inch painted and polished aluminum rims, really a good looking rim. I think this is what they put on the limited standard maybe a couple years ago. Goodyear Wrangler 26560R18 tires and they got you know like an all-terrain tread on them. In fact they are all-terrain adventure tires on there. Diamond Black's got a little bit of metal flake which you can see in the sunlight. Kind of dark out today cloudy but has a projector lamp head lamps, the projector lamp fog lamps. You get the chrome trimmed grille and the chrome trimmed Jeep logo as well as the headlight and fog light bezels. We'll check out the original buyers guide here. Feel free to pause this at any second so you can see that it is a 2020 Laredo E and you get the 2 BE customer-preferred package which gives you the roof rails and the power driver's seat with lumbar and it has the 18 inch wheel and 8.4 radio group which gives you factory navigation and the Sirius XM Guardian, Traffic Plus and Travel Link. Get the rearview auto dimming mirror and the 7 inch instrument cluster as well. Feel free to pause it at any time to take a look at this. I love the Grand Cherokee's super safe vehicles. Five-star crash test ratings almost all the way across the board. Very very safe vehicles and they ride phenomenally. But we're just going to do the rest of the walk around here go over over some of the options. This one does have the blind spot monitoring, the backup parking sensors so the blind spot cross path detection has the LED running lights back here. This is a manual raise gate, lots of room in the back storage area and this one does come with a full-size spare tire and jack tools. Those seats do fold down for extra storage which we'll check out in just a little bit. It also has a backup camera on there which we'll check out as well. Has the capless fuel fill which is a really nice feature. Enter and go system so you just put your hand in the door there and it'll unlock the doors.  Really cool design. Diamond design on there, black seats, factory floor mats, auto headlamps, tilt telescopic steering wheel. I like the really dark trim on the doors here. The wood grain trim power windows power locks and power mirrors and like I said this one has the 7-inch LCD display. You get the digital speedometer outside temperature and compass display and you can change all those corners to whatever you want it to read. Comes with the leather wrapped steering wheel, cruise controls on the right, Bluetooth and information center controls on the left and then on the back of the steering wheel are audio controls. So the tire and 8.4 group gives you the 8.4 touchscreen radio. This is the 4C radio and it has factory navigation as well. This is also where your backup camera shows up. Has AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities. You also can do your climate control here as well. And this one being the 4C gives you the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capabilities which you can project your cell phone right to the screen with a USB cord.  Back of parking sensors, your start-stop capabilities, eco mode, sport mode and stability control. Down here you get two USBs and an aux jack and this one does have the enter-and-go system with the keyless entry. 8-speed automatic transmission has the Quadra Track 1 system which means it's an automatic four-wheel drive system and you get the nice wood grain trim wrapping around the dash and the door there really good-looking. You do get map lights up here and that auto dimming mirror. The other thing you get with the 8.4 is the SOS and assist buttons in the rear view mirror which are features of the vehicle. We'll take a quick look at the back seats. We'll also check out under the hood just for the fun of it. You get the latch child safety system back here. Rear air vents has that nice design as well and those seats like I said they fold down almost completely flat maybe just a couple degree angle there but really nice if you got a haul a bunch of extra stuff. Tons of room back here. Those headrests they do fold down like on the passenger side there and these seats also recline. I don't know if anyone's ever showed you that but they do lean back that much so if you want to try and take a nap back here you definitely could. Got the wood grain trim wraps around the back doors as well and you do get the child safety locks in the doors. We'll take a quick look under the hood. The 3.6 liter Pentastar V6 motor like I said 25 highway 18 city for an average of 21. It's a ward winning motor and just been really good for Jeep Dodge Ram Chrysler since it came out. And we'll do one more walk around. I'd personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video you will have been able to tell just a little bit about the styling on the Laredo E package and get a little bit of information on the options in this particular vehicle. This is a for sale vehicle so feel free to give us a call at<PHONE_NUMBER> to make this one yours today. Really a good-looking Jeep for the trim level it's one of the entry-level trim levels on here but really good looking with that 18 inch wheel group.

So yesterday we just looked at noticing the fact that if we look down at Kaylee's tables row or column that we see that all the values in the set that make up our group are there and they're all they're unique so for a finite set that's easy enough I mean if everyone's unique of course they'll all be there but what about an infinite set the other thing is those are small little small little examples you know it doesn't hold for all so we really have to prove the fact that if we have a set G I should say group G that contains a set of elements and some binary operation on that do we have the fact that the rows and the columns represent unique values and all the values can we prove that first of all let's create a Kaylee's table here there we go we have our binary operation we represent our whole group G here all those and let's select let's select an arbitrary element of our group and we'll call that arbitrary element A and I'm going to look down this row because it's arbitrary it reflects all of those rows every single one of them and what I want to know is you know is each of these entries unique that's the first thing I might want to show so if I take any element G here and I look at A and G the binary operation with each other is that unique first of all let's suggest that they are two here I have also a G prime so that I have this and this and I'm going to suggest to the contrary that it is so that these two are equal to each other so I'm suggesting that there's another one here and they actually the same meaning the entries down the row is not unique well I'm told that this is a group so if A is an element of my set in my group then A inverse better be there and if I do this I've got to do it on this side as well and that's the identity that's the identity so G equals G prime in other words this is actually not two different things because remember we don't repeat it when we write the Cayley stables this one and this one's actually at the exact same thing so it sits on top of that so every element there really is unique there really is unique let's do the column let's look at the columns and see there's my binary operation my whole group G is represented here I again take some arbitrary element and I look down its column it is an arbitrary element so if it's arbitrary that means all of them that are there and again I'm going to look at G here so this is G binary operation with A and once again I'm going to suggest that there's a G prime of a different different from that remember this way around and I'm going to say it is not unique in other words that I have this G and A is going to equal G prime with a I'm going to write multiply write not multiply the binary operation with a inverse and again I get this this fact so it's actually the same thing and these elements that I get here are absolutely unique now I'm going to clear the board because now we need to show that all of them are represented there as I said with a finite set if they are all unique then of course they will all be represented there but what if it's infinite let me clean the board okay so we've proved uniqueness now we have to prove that they're all there so I'm still here with A and I'm still looking at its group I'm saying let me look is G there now G is an element of the group and I'm saying it is arbitrary so it's any one of them and if I take any one of them and prove that it's true it actually it is obviously true for everyone so I'm saying can I can I get any element here can I find G here and since G if I can find G there and G is anyone then that means they're all there and let me suggest that there is a G prime it's not the G prime of the previous bit so I'm saying that a binary operation G prime equals G and the question now is just can I you know which one is this G you know how do I calculate this G prime well it's very easy if I just put the inverses on this side if I put the inverses on this side it just means G prime equals A inverse A inverse with G so I you know this there is closure so this must exist that's an element A is an element in this must be there there's closure I'm told that these all elements of a group that's a given so this one must be there and it's this the result of this must be there and there it is and if I find it there and I find A inverse I actually get G so irrespective I took arbitrary ones I will find it there so even if there's an infinite number of these I will find it in the row so we shown both as unique and all of them are there and the same would go for this can I find G in this column well let's suggest that this is G prime here and again we're going to say that G prime binary operation with A equals G so I can very easily find G prime that it's just going to be G binary operation A inverse that's in the group that's in a group there's a group there's closure so I can do this its result its result is G prime G prime must be in the group so G prime must be somewhere that is I would the binary operation with A inverse will give me the G prime so I know where it is if I do that with A I'm going to find G if I if I do A here with G prime I'm going to find G G was arbitrary I can find it no matter no matter of these entries are infinite I'm going to find it so both in the rows and the columns we prove that all the values are there and each one of them is unique so it wasn't just some special case for the little examples that we've seen before it holds for all of these and as far as a group is concerned and that's a very deep insight we're going to use it later when we look at proper proof for probably look at Kayleigh's tables and what that implies but this is a very deep this is a very deep insight that we've gotten into groups here and that if we look at these rows and look at these columns there is this wonderful property for all of them


Thank you. We have full, we have a few people so I'm not so nervous first. One minute, everybody. I'm Zhao Huan Yu from China, from the State Grid Corporation of China. I have 10 years about IT experience and I'm a database administration team leader and an OpenStack maintenance team leader. We can see there are two pictures on the left side. The upper one is just after graduation before work. I'm slim, maybe I have some weight, but after 10 years I've become a fat old uncle, lost almost all my hair. Why? Because we have to work in SGCC IT department. We must fix bugs, fix on the symptoms, so many works, just sit down. So no time to do more exercise, no time to eat gym. So I became a fighter fighter. But with OpenStack in our company one year, I become slim again because I have more time in gym. So OpenStack do good for me. Okay, let's move to our slide. We have four parts in this slide. The first is about SGCC and its IT architecture. SGCC is I think is most new to all of you because it's China's largest electricity company in the world. It's the 7th largest company in top 500. So we serve about 26 states in China. Most of the red area is served by us. Before OpenStack, before Mootoo open source, we mainly use commercial products in our systems, both soft wires and hard wires. So we can see we are almost locked by the vendor. For this, Mootoo open source, a lot of things are moving to open source. We build our own self controlled private cloud because we have 26 states. So it's a big cluster for computers. So we must have our own private cloud. Okay, this is about our company. Power supply is key to protect people's new hold and economic development for our society because power is most important for us. Without power, we can't do anything. If we do not have any power in our home, in our office, then nothing is done. So power is very important. So the power supply must be safe and reliable. IT systems are the key points for the power supply to work safely and reliable because everything in my office, in my company is working on the IT systems, emails, website, financial systems, production system, ERP, CRM, planning systems. A lot of systems are working on the information systems. So if the information system is done, you can imagine it. This slide is talking about the traditional architecture of our IT systems. Many of our database and storage is the most important part in our IT systems. We have more than 100 information systems in the whole company, in the whole corporation. And we have 500 terabytes in each state. We have 26 states, but we have 500 in each and 1,000 hosts in each state. Most of the hosts and the survivors are locked by the vendor. So we are not comfortable. We must move to open source. Okay, then we should move to the open source. Then we have some purpose on the changes. So this slide is talking about our IT architecture. The most important thing for us is reliable. The systems must be stable, reliable, and safe because IT information systems are most important. Another thing is we must unlock by any vendor. The last thing is costs. We should control the IT investments, IT costs. We must save money. Okay, this slide is talking about how to unlock from the vendor. For this slide, it's a typical architecture of a database system. We have a mini computer and a switch, fiber switch, and storage. It's a traditional database system. So we must change. We must unlock from IBM X. We must change from EMC storage. More and more technologies on the new hardware, software appear in these five years. We have so many things to play. So it's the key reason we can change. Another thing is the old infrastructure is moving to infrastructure as a service. I mean, everything is moved to cloud. Another thing, the last thing is about commercial software and hardware. If you want to upgrade from the before one, you must pay more because the commercial software and hardware, they want to scale up, not scale out, but they want to scale out. They want to have more servers. Another thing that can happen, if a new system is started for test deployment and online for working at the first time, and with more users, we need more RAM, more CPU, more storage, then we must attend the systems. For the old method, we must scale up. It's not good for me, for us, I think. We want to make some big changes. So we use X86 to take instead of units. We want quantity, not quality. Quality do not mean that with bad quality. I mean, mini-computer is always stable than the PC server, but if we have more PC servers, it's more stable than the one-hour-two mini-computer. So it's quantity for quality. Another thing is we change the commercial software to open source. In the latest two years, we have more projects with open source software. You know how it comes in? Okay, that's coming to the open source. It's our headache that the commercial software, we must pay for lessons. We must pay for the service. Everything in their books, you cannot control the data, control everything inside the books. So it's commercial software. But we want to control everything. We want to hold our data in our own. So it's not good ideas for commercial software such as VMware. I think VMware is not here. VMware is a very expensive lessons, and Oracle is our big problem, because our database is Oracle 10G, 11G, and middleware is also WebLogic 10G, 12C. It's both from Oracle. If we combine from Oracle Xdata, Xlogic, it's all from Oracle. So you cannot control. They just ask for money. We ask for service. They ask for money. So our money is done. But our financial staff said we do not have money, so we must control the investment on IT systems. So from 2014, my team started because I'm the database administration leader. Our team started to remove IBM X and EMAC storage. I mean the commercial storage to open source. So we started in March and in November. For all the database systems, we removed IBM X and commercial storage just eight months. We removed them all. Because Oracle, we can't remove because it's depending on the development. So we moved the infrastructure to our architecture. And 2014 December, we began to know OpenStack. With almost 10 months' tests on deployment and selection of OpenStack vendor, our OpenStack partner, we chose EasyStack as our OpenStack partner. We started to implement the OpenStack environments. Until this February, we have 200 physical nodes in one state, just one state for the test for the lab. And we have more than 1,000 virtual machines for our IT systems. It's not too long. I think it's about a half a year. But we're planning to do more. We have more systems waiting for the OpenStack. Now we're also working for the big data cloud. As the X, I mean network storage, everything we want to define by the software. Okay, let's move to the next part. It's OpenStack now. From the last slide, I said that I chose EasyStack as our partner of OpenStack. That's why we chose it. Because EasyStack is the leader OpenStack provider in Asia, in our country. And they focus on the professional enterprise software, enterprise service. It's very important. Some public cloud, we have also tested some public cloud provider. But they have different thinking, different ways. So it's not a good idea to choose them. Because we want to keep our data under our control. So it's better to choose a private cloud for this enterprise. And if our partner, they must provide all the public and private API. That means it's 100% open and locked by any vendor, our partner. And the OpenStack systems must be reliable. You should understand enterprise better than you can do better. If you are new to enterprise, it's totally different from the Internet company. Because we are a public service company. And it's best performance and best values. Okay, I'd like advertisement for them. Now it's our current OpenStack environments. We have more than 200 nodes in this one. I mean, in this February, we have 200 nodes. We plan to have 1,000 nodes here. And in the 200 nodes, we have five controllers. And more than 130 commutes nodes. More than 60 storage nodes. This is our logical map for the OpenStack. This one is a standard rack. We have 10 servers in one rack. And mixed with storage nodes and commutes nodes. We have three switch in one rack. And a two-call switch for the up-level. It's our logic map. This slide is talking about the network. We have five totally different networks in our OpenStack environment. We have, okay, sorry. There's some Chinese character. It's just from my slide in China. We have internal network. It communicates between VMs. It means VM is transferred from this host to another. We have separate network for them. And we have external network. It means provide service for the user. We have storage network at around the site only. They should pay more attention on the site, on the storage network. Because they have some assailants in this network. I will talk later. And we also have the volume deployment network and management network. But it's just used for once or several times, not used very often. So we just, we put them together, run in a gigabyte switch, network switch. This means admin node and commutes node and storage node. Okay. OpenStack is always flexible and customized. That means if in our company, the user, the user, they want to some new service, some new request. We must development for them. Because we should service for them for the users. For commercial software, you can't develop some service. But you just can't, you just development from the open API. So internal things, you know nothing about it. But with OpenStack, every API is open. So we can have new request and development. And then we have new service, new module. Then we get a better performance. Because we, OpenStack can work with Docker for container. For monitor and unstable for deployment and management. So it's quite easy for us to development the other part. We totally move to the open source. Okay. Then it's the map of our IT system. The hardware, we only need servers. White box servers. White box switch. And the fiber cable and the rack. It's our hardware. And then the operating system of cloud. We choose OpenStack. And the other part, we choose Xavius. Unseable. We have test on the deployment. So many open source tools for our systems. It's almost the automation operation. So we have nothing to do. Most of us, we have more time to play. So for us, after OpenStack, we have more time on holidays. Okay. This is both of the future jobs in our company with OpenStack. First, we should enlarge our OpenStack cluster. We should expand the OpenStack cluster planning implement more than 1,000 nodes in each state. I mean that maybe in the future, in the future five years, in the next five years, we have 50,000 nodes in the whole corporation company. Maybe it's the largest production of OpenStack environment in the electricity industry in the world. Because we are already the first one in the world in the power supply. So if the OpenStack cluster is so big, it's becoming the biggest one. Biggest production environment. And we plan to upgrade to a new version because now our OpenStack is at-house version. We plan to move to a new unstable version of OpenStack. And also, I'm the database administration. I just focus for my work. So I have paid more attention to the storage. We plan to do some self on storage. We want to implement the database cloud with self. And we plan to have some QoS on the storage network. Because if the storage network is flashing, then nothing can run. So it costs almost all the bandwidth. Okay, a little fast, I think. The last one is the suggestion. This is just a suggestion from my team. So it's just a suggestion. The first one is the technical suggestions. We must choose the stable version of OpenStack, the stable version of OpenSouth. Because OpenSouth projects have so many bugs. We must care about it. And we must have good quality on hardware. And SDN is better than the traditional network. We are working from transfer from the traditional network to SDN by switch, by part, by zone, by zone. And the SSD hard disk will come popular in the enterprise area, I think. We use SSD more and more for these days. For non-technical issues, we should improve our IT skills. We should improve our DevOps. And also we should rebuild the structure of IT department because we do not need mini-computer administration anymore. It's totally removed from our systems. So we should rebuild our IT department structure. And the last thing is that we have to change our thinking and thinking on our method of how to operation and maintenance the cloud, in-cloud. I mean, it's totally different from the traditional IT architecture. So my part is finished. It's quite quick. Okay. And thank you. It's finished. Thank you. Any questions? No questions? Okay. Thank you. Thank you very much. I would like to ask two questions. Okay. Last slide. You told that IT skill improvement is very, very needed. So what skill is most needed for IT skills? Yes. Next one. Rebuild software of IT department. How change your department before and after? Okay. Okay. I know. For the first question, we do not have mini-computer in our system. So the IT skills, we have more PC servers. So the skills, the knowledge is transferred from the mini-computer to PC server. Because it's totally different. We have unique systems. So unique system administrator, the high level in the before days. But the PC server with Linux is very popular. It's easy to understand. But we must have so many Linux administrations. So it changes our IT department structure, I think. Both questions are answered. To Linux. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because Unix is quite expensive. For this, there are few and few people to use Unix. So yeah. Yeah. I have some, because it's not my job. I just maintain the database system and open stack. If we need some more programming jobs, we move to our partner. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. So I have a question about the size of your cloud. Okay. And in one of your slides, you mentioned you have five controllers, 60 plus storage nodes. Are those nodes part of your 200 nodes cloud? Yes. Yes. Both the inside. Okay. So totally it's 200. So because I'm more interested in the compute nodes to storage ratio. Racial. Yeah. I think with the slide, you can see it. So you probably have over 100 compute nodes? Yes. Yes. Oh, no, no, no, no. I can see it. Sorry. That's okay. I can do the math. I mean, if you say that the controllers and storage, they're part of the 200 nodes. Yes. You can see the picture. Okay. I will move on. Yes. You can see that we have five controllers, more than 130 compute nodes and 60 storage nodes. Okay. Thank you. So the other question is about deployment because anyone working on the open stack nodes is hard to set up. Yeah. Do you use some of your in-house develop tools or use some standard deployment tools or? Yeah. Part of it belongs to our partner, but I also can answer that they have a roller. A tool means a roller. With deployment, it's an open stack very easily with the roller. It's a tool, a software. It's part of the easy stack, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We implement about 50 nodes just within one day with the roller. It's very fast and it's stable. Okay. Thank you. Welcome. Okay. Then it's finished. Thank you. Again.


All right, my friends, I'm gonna do this really fast. Well, maybe not that fast, but hey, this is a shout out for my Patreon. If you love my videos, please consider supporting my channel on Patreon.  So please click the link below or here or wherever it's gonna be, and I appreciate you, you're the best. And if you can't do it, if you can't afford it, I totally understand. My videos will always be free on YouTube. Okay, now back to Iowa. Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye. Good morning. Good morning. Oh, how'd you sleep? Ah, pretty well. Once the music stopped. Yeah, I was a little loud last night. Pretty rowdy. They like to party here. Okay. Well, speaking of that, let's go party. Look at that cool hairdo. Thanks. It was made by pool chlorine. All right, fry, fry, fry, fry. So everybody over here was in a charter, and these guys right here are packing up their tents for them. They're gonna transport all their gear. We are doing it ourselves. We don't need no charter, right? We don't need no stinking charter. We don't need no stinking charter. That was totally cool if you take a charter too. All right, Amelie's all packed up. No. She's putting on her green guru upcycled awesome panniers. Yeah. My friends, my friends in Boulder make these. Check them out, green guru all upcycled doesn't get any more environmentally friendly. They reuse old banners and make panniers. You ready for day two? Oh God. Come on, you can't say that. Ah, Ryan, we're gonna have to watch my mouth. F, yes, then. Good. Thank you. Beautiful piece of flat ground in the grass right next to the town library. I'm trying to make the grass. Are you fluffing it up? I'm fluffing the grass. Leave no trace. Start your watch. You know it. You know it. Here we go. It's a race. Woo, look at us go. Bye, pool. Thanks for cooling us off. Good morning, everybody. Woo. You know, I love waking up in Rag Bride World where everybody else is on bikes. Everybody else going the same place. Everybody else is psyched and happy. It's the jolly place to be. And I would like Rag Bride World to be every day in my life. Look at all these people on bikes. Everywhere you go. Good morning. There's the poop cleaner uppers. Good morning. So we haven't gotten very far. We went back to Casey's here. We love you, Casey's. And look at this. I've never seen this before. Breakfast, pizza. It has egg and, you know, a green peppers on there. What'd you get for breakfast? I don't know. Coffee. Mmm, coffee. We love Casey's. And so does everybody else. This is a very crowded place to be in the morning. I'm too sexy for my trike. Too sexy for my trike. Too sexy. It's what I like. So what do you have here? I have my main squeeze. I have my side chick. I have my wingman. Chicken patty, these Irish. The glamorous life of Amelia Boone. Like, what don't you do in a Casey's parking lot? You do everything here. Ah. Where are you going to spit? Look who I found. So is this just for today? No, all week. All week? You're going to dress up like this. I'm going to shoot for it. How many green and red shirts did you pack? Well, that's personal. You know what time it is? No flatties, no crashes, no whammies. Coffee on the bike. Little morning coffee. Let's go have another beautiful day in Iowa. Let's do it. All we have to do today is ride our bikes. Goof around. Four people whooped and hollered. They're ready. The rest are tired. We'll get there. Coffee line. Look at that line. Hey everybody. So what do we have here? So we have corn necklaces for all our regbri friends, wear it with pride, and enjoy the state of Iowa. You got your corn necklaces? I got my corn necklace. Looking good, mama. So are you from around here? Yes, I am. I live right here in the great state of Iowa, northwest to Iowa. My name's Jolene. I've been a farmer for forever. And I absolutely love the lifestyle to which I can claim. So we grow corn, beans, some alfalfa, and we grow critters. We are, we background cattle. My boys have a cow calf herd. There it is. Oh, it's a hawk. I know. It's a hand-off. It's a hawk. Thank you. Oh, they're a nice hand-off, yeah. You love living out here. What's it like? You know, I can remember coming through this part of the state when I was in college. And so obviously, I have a year or two out of college and just thought this area was absolutely gorgeous. And so I was so lucky to end up marrying a farmer from this part of the world. So life is good. How you doing, Amelia? Ah, everybody's waking up now. Everybody over here. Hey, buddy. Hi there, cutie. What's your dog's name? Schwartz. Schwartz. Is this his first rag ride? Yes, it is. It's all his first rag ride. What are you thinking? Loving it. Loving it. It's pretty cool. Look at him back there. What's up, brother? How you doing? Hey, I'm doing good. What inspired you to come out here and do this? I've got tons of friends still up in Iowa. And my two friends from Florida say, hey, let's go do this thing. And I say, all right. All right, fine. It's going to be a suffer fast. But why not? Have you been training? Nope. You guys want to meet my favorite paramedic and all of rag ride? There he is. Land shark left. So what kind of things do you see out here with people? What's happening to our fellow riders when they go down? One of the biggest things is obviously people don't get unclipped quick enough. They fall over. They get scraped up. We do a lot of just cleaning up wounds. So usually you're rolling around in an ambulance. It's a traditional ambulance. But today you have the e-bike ambulance, huh? Yeah. Care ambulance is the official rag ride ambulance. This year, Matt Pippin and Bob Libby put together a program along with Trek and Bickles Bike Center in Burlington, Iowa where we got these phenomenal Trek service bikes. Yeah, man. And I mean, I'm not sure, but I think this is the only ALS bicycle in the state of Iowa right now. So amongst the 20,000 plus people, I somehow just met the new director of Rag Ride. How's it going, buddy? Hey, how are you? So how are you feeling? This is a pretty exciting thing to be in charge of. I'm pretty blessed.  I think we're back for sure with Rag Ride. The weather is amazing. I mean, everybody is so excited that the weather is going to hold all week. Everybody's smiling. There's nobody frowning. They're not working hard at all. I mean, the hills are behind us and we have great food ahead of us. And it's going to be a great finish at the end. Why is Rag Ride so special to the state of Iowa?  People come from everywhere across the world to meet friends from the past and new friends from the future. And it shows off Iowa. Or people fly over Iowa. You need to come and enjoy it. Yeah. What's it like being the director of something like Rag Ride, where there's so many people in logistics and an entire state involved? Well, it gets bringing people to Iowa a big deal. I mean, people, like I said, they fly over and they come and enjoy it and they hear about Rag Ride. They want to come back and ride it over and over again. And when you wear a Rag Ride shirt and you're in a different state or different country, someone knows of Rag Ride. But it's Iowa nice.  So it's pretty special. And what are some of your goals being the new director? What are you going to bring to Rag Ride going forward? Well, next year we have Year 50, which is going to be probably one of our biggest parties we've ever thrown. I want to get us on major roads that we've never been on before in big cities and show a case that, you know, Rag Ride's not going anywhere. It's here to stay. I've seen a lot of cool playgrounds in my life with playground equipment. This is the absolute coolest. Oh my God. Look at that. This is so fun. I love this thing. So I've been looking for this team. I've heard amazing things about what they do in the world. I just found the director, Brian, very cool name close to Ryan. How's it going, my friend? It's going really good. Nice to talk to you, Ryan. So tell me about the Dream Team. The Dream Team is a nonprofit organization in Des Moines, Iowa. We take at-risk teenagers. We've got about 28 this year. We mentor them for five months on a bicycle, and then we bring them here on the full week of Rag Ride across the state of Iowa. And how long you've been doing this? Dream Team has been in existence for 25 years. This is our big 25th year, and I've been doing it for 11. Okay. And why is this important to the kids? What do they get out of it? Oh my gosh. So first of all, they don't need anything. We provide the bikes and the helmets and everything and all the training. And then they earn the bike at the end. If they do every single mile of Rag Ride, we don't sag, we don't skip a day. When they reach the Mississippi River and dip their front tire in the water, it becomes theirs. But along with that, it's the confidence. It's the team building and the camaraderie, learning how to set goals, achieve goals, dream big. And we see them just improve so much over the years, gain that confidence in themselves, come out of their shell, and the change is just staggering. And why bikes? Well, you know, I think bikes is a good metaphor for life, honestly, because it's not a team sport. There's only one person that can do your life, and that's you. And when you're on a bike, it's all you. It's you getting yourself across the state of Iowa. But there's a team aspect to it, where you surround yourself with people who say you can, help you, you've got a support crew. And that's important in life, too. You want to have a good support crew. You don't want to be around the naysayers who say you can't do that or you're not good enough. Surround yourself with people who say you can, you are good enough, you're valuable. That's what Dream Team is all about. So, Rachel, you're part of the Dream Team. Yes, I am. Tell me how your experience has been. It's been a while roller coaster. It's been a while roller coaster from start to finish. I started off not being able to balance on my bike. Now, like five months later, I'm here riding ride-bride. All 462 miles. Wow. It's pretty great. And so today is day two. How do you feel? I don't feel bad, so to say. I feel really excited. Kind of slightly nervous, but since I've already started out, you know, it's like the nervousness has gone away. I'm just really hyped up.  And why do you love bikes? Bikes. Biking, it's a different kind of freedom. It makes me feel like I'm flying when, you know, I have tires. And you feel like a car. I mean, you're going 30 miles per hour downhill. You're zooming. The air is in your face. You're like, wow. And going forward, how do you think the bicycle is going to play a role in your life? Definitely as a way of just, like, relaxing, de-stressing, because I've heard adult life. It's pretty crazy. It is crazy. Oh, it's pretty crazy. So I'm hoping with the bike, I can hopefully lead a healthy life on it. Right on. Well, I'm really proud of you. Congratulations. Thank you. Have fun on Rack Rack. Thank you. You too. Savannah, tell me about your experience on the Dream Team and what it means to you. So this is my first year doing a Y-Bike. So my Dream Team has been really supportive and really awesome for me because going, like, seeing different people on your team and encouraging them is like really awesome and going up the hills and watching people walk the hills. It's just funny because reaching for a thousand miles and we know we can go up the hills and the people are just walking up the hills. So yeah. It has been really amazing because it's like really helpful and I get to help other people on my team and, like, get to be the leader on my team and coach everybody else. Yeah. And how do you think bikes are going to play a role in your life going forward? Are you going to ride a bike forever now? Yeah. So, I think this was really a journey for me because I'm going to continue to continue riding bikes because it has been like really amazing to me. Well, I wish you all the best. Thank you for talking with me. You're welcome. Alright, bye. Have fun. Good luck. Bye. How's it going, Rachel? It's going great. Right on. Yep. Looking good. Thank you. Woo. You having fun, Savannah? Yeah. Loving it. Looking good.  What does that mean? So this is my first year with the team actually and it's been very inspirational. Seeing kids from not knowing how to ride a bike to riding now, riding with me is pretty incredible. Yeah. So do you tag along one person? We have a group of four. Three or four youths, usually to two mentors every day. Have fun. Go chase Savannah. She's getting ahead of you. Yeah. Thanks. Bye. There's my girlfriend. There she is. How's it going? Woo. You're looking great. Woo. Look at those teeth, by the way. Let's see the teeth. Man, those are white. Ah. You know, a lot of people avoid the rumble strips. I think they feel kind of nice. Right?  And I mean, it's the one time during rag-rye I can shine with my shocks. Yeah. Put those shocks to use, girl. There you go. Here we go. Ah. Rumble. Rumble. Big fan. Right on. Follow you. We got our videos from you and through email. Right on. Well, thank you. I appreciate the love. Wow. We love you. All right. Have a good one. Say hi to your mom. I will. Bye. We still have cloud cover, which means it is so nice and cool. No sweating today. Do you wear this every day? Yeah. You do? Yep. That's impressive. You guys are awesome. Look at you. Yeah, buddy. Thank you. All right. Let's do it. Let's do it. It's time for a donkey show. All right. Amelia, what are we going to go do? Ah, we're going to the donkey show. Go into a donkey show. Yeah. They've been advertising this donkey show all morning. And here we are. There you go. Yeah, buddy. All right. Amelia, it's your turn to go into the donkey show. Donkey show. You are part of the show now. Give them a kiss. They're a donkey kiss. So cute. My favorite donkey. So what is a donkey show? Tijuana, Mexico. So this is a different version. This is a PG version. PG version of a donkey show. Yes, sir. Oh, you look so cute at a donkey show. You look so cute at a donkey show. You look so cute at a donkey show. You look so cute at a donkey's behind. Oh, look. Road apples. Only a quarter. Oh, sweet. I need some more fiber today. Road apples. 25 cents. They're pretty light. They don't weigh much at all. Thank you for the donkey show. Yeah. Donkey show.  Sit down at a birthday party and we just had to come up with something for Ragnarai. So, hey, let's have a donkey show. Right? Hey, friends here at Ragnarai. I have a new one named Andy. Andy, how you doing, bud? I'm doing pretty good, Ryan. How are you? Good. So, how you feeling out here? I feel absolutely great. I'm so happy to meet you. You're my inspiration for doing this ride. I saw the video a couple years ago. I saw how you interact with people. I love all your cycling videos, the cross-country ones, all like South America, all that stuff. So, I started getting in shape, eating better, cycling a lot. I ended up losing about 180 pounds over the past year and a half. And I finally feel like I'm in good enough shape to do this. So, here I am. And what do you think? I love it. Love it. There's no other place I'd rather be right now. Then in Iowa, riding bikes with riding van dozer. High five, buddy. All right, man. I've been waiting for a slip and slide and this is the first one of this year's Ragnarai. Check it out. Good. Time to give it a try. All right. Getting warmed up for the slip and slide. It's time. How y'all feeling? Good. How y'all feeling? Let's do this. Let's do this. How y'all feeling over here? Scared. Scared. That was pretty awesome. Are you proud of me?  You went down that big slip and slide. Wow. I went down that big hill. You got big go all by yourself. I'm going to say it right here. This is the best slip and slide I've ever seen do with the hill. Oh, dear Lord. Oh, dear Lord. What is happening? What is this? Stay on track. Stay on track. Oh, man. That was beautiful. That was beautiful. So Ragnarai is a ride. It's not a race, but to these two, it is. My friends, you're the champions, right? Yeah. Defending champions. That's correct, right? Last year, we won the whole thing. Clearly, we were ahead of even the second place so far. But we were ahead of even the second place or by long shot. Yeah. The trophy from last year. Look at that. You won Ragnarai. Drinkers with a biking problem. That's what we are. Thank you for cheering us on. Yay. Hello. Thank you. So I was supposed to be in Sweden, but the next best thing just rolled up. A real swede of biking. How you doing, buddy? Yeah, I'm good. You loving this? Loving it. And I'm happy to see you in the next video. I'm happy to see you here. I would have missed you in Sweden if you were there. That's true. That's true. So here we go. I'm just singing. Classic Swedish rock now. Emilia, are you loving life? I'm loving life right now. Yeah, you are. It feels great outside. We got a little rain, but it's warm. And we're ready to go. We're ready to go. We're ready to go. We're ready to go. We're hot and warm. And we're cruising, it's like flat and just like good crew out here. No headwind. No headwind. So I just met a fella named Arjen and he's doing something rather unique. What's going on here? I'm riding across the country. A year after being in a car accident, then nearly killed me. Oh, no. You're carrying all your stuff. Yeah. Do you have a badminton net? Yeah, yeah. You have badminton. You gotta have a badminton set up when you're riding across the country. Clearly. Clearly. How has it been? You loving it? Yeah, it's been awesome. It's been such a delight. What's the, what are you finding as you ride across the country? The kindness of strangers, you know? And people know that this is like a hard thing and they kind of like see what I'm like and they're like, oh man, can I get you a glass of water or anything, you know? Yeah, just kindness of people, really. That's awesome. Here we are walking into a field, trying not to step on stuff. Yeah, you're good. Okay, so what's your name and who you're with and what do you do? My name's Dan Paulson. I'm with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and I'm a soil conservationist. So what we do is we work with private landowners to install conservation practices on their land to conserve soil, improve water quality and wildlife habitat. And why is that important here in Iowa? So 99% of the state is in agricultural production of some sort. So they're all of our land base or most all of our land bases in agricultural production. So we have a great big land base to work with and that's why it's important. We have some fragile soils and some areas that need protection. All right, so we're standing where? We are in a soybean field outside of Newell, Iowa. And we're gonna look at today is a soybean crop that was no-till planted into last year's standing corn stalks or corn residue. Wow, okay. So you can look down here and see that this field, when they planted these beans, they didn't till the soil up from the prior year. They just planted it right in there. So you see all this residue from last year that protects the soil from erosion and also conserves moisture. You can see just as we pull that back a little bit, you can see good moisture. We work with the private landowners to teach the methods. We have financial assistance programs where we can help provide financial incentives to them too to help pay to get started with some of the conservation practices we do. And obviously there's a lot of corn in Iowa or some of the other crops. Well, the two main crops in Iowa are corn and soybeans. So pretty much that's what we have here. There are a few small grains and then some alfalfa that we also have here. And of all the corn that we're riding past, how much is it kind of a human's eat? Or is it for animal feed? All of you, everything that you see is for feed and probably ethanol production. Very little of what you drive by is for human consumption. So now we're looking at another conservation practice. It's called a filter strip, which is basically a strip of perennial vegetation grasses in this case that provides a buffer from the cropland to a water body. And why is that important? So that's important because the strip can take up nutrients and keep sediment out of the streams. So it's a great practice for farmers to implement on their farms. We got the dream teamers. What's up? How you feeling? Good. Woo! You're just riding in the rain, singing in the rain, pedaling in the rain. Hey, Amelia, what did you just say to me? What's that? I'm at 57 miles. 57? Yeah.  Her butt's feeling good. I'm proud of you. I love you. I think it's time for my first slice of pie. Here we go, rhubarb pie. My favorite kind of pie is pumpkin pie, but it's not pumpkin season, so I'm gonna go with this. This is church lady pie. Not to be confused with Amish pie, but it's still pretty solid. So Amelia is not a big pie fan, but she's gonna go for it. Not, I've been told. I gotta try it. Give it a try. What do you think? Rhubarb. That's actually really good. I don't like rhubarb in general, so. It's the magic of Iowa. I don't know. So I'm sitting here eating pie, and this guy's like, Ryan, what's up?  I follow you on Instagram. I want you to meet a very inspirational guy, and he's gonna tell us all about what he does. Danny. What up, everyone? I'm Rod with Dan USA. Everybody called me Lieutenant Dan, and I just got done bicycling with lower 48 states for suicide awareness, and I'm here at my first rag bride. I have a nonprofit called The One Penal at a Tie Movement, and it's just amazing stuff, man. And what inspired all this? So I attempted suicide three times. I was planning a fourth, and a friend said it's one pedal at a time to me that changed my life. I used to be 270 pounds. I was mentally unhealthy, and cycling saved it, changed it all. And so I started bicycling with lower 48 after eight months of cycling, and yeah, it was life changing for me. And going forward, what are the plans with the organization? Well, so unfortunately, there's a lot of kids, especially in Colorado and around the country, that commit suicide. 14 to 28s are highest risk suicide, so I'm hoping by the end of the year to start focusing more on children. Make a stranger smile. I'm the smiley face guy. Yeah, buddy, look at that. Yeah, look at that, that's impressive. That's so cool. That's awesome, dude. I'm hot. It's awesome. Congrats on what you're doing and what you've overcome, and I wish you the best on everything in the future. Thanks, man. I appreciate it enough. Hey, we'll be riding, hopefully, at some point. Yeah, you better come to Boulder to do the cruiser ride. Of course, at some point. Final five miles. We got this, people. We got this. Five miles to go. There's Danny, he's flying again. We made it to Pocahontas. Good job, Amelia. Booty check, how you doing? Pretty good. Pretty good. We're about to go over here. The last few miles in, we're a little bit, but feeling good now. We're on a camp on the left field? We're gonna camp on a baseball field. It's been a long time since I've camped on a baseball field. You know what baseball field is good for? Flat ground. High five. High five. Boom, day two. So we started our day at Casey's and now we're ending it at Casey's and as you can see, there's a lot of people here. This is where everybody comes to get cheap beer and just hang out in the parking lot. And you know, there's a lot of fun places to hang out at Rackbribe. For some reason, I have a special spot in my heart for Casey's, I love it. We got some really good food at the Casey's parking lot party. And day two, good job. Good job. Way to go, 71 miles. 71 miles. Biggest day of your life on a bike. Boom, boom. Until we do 100 miles. In two days. Rackbribe, we're just camping out with all of our buddies now. Hope nobody snores. Church stuff can be generally very ornate, but I've never seen it ornate in terms of using geodes and rocks and whatnot. You know, you normally see a lot of gold and things. So this is like the most unique thing that I've ever seen. Yeah.
