Welcome to the most wanted performance of the CUNY Graduate Center. This September we surveyed the people of the CUNY Graduate Center to determine what they would most like to see in a performance. After administering the survey on location, we received 78 responses. Those respondents range from doctoral students, faculty, food services, facilities, employees, and even visitors to the building. The performance you are about to see reflects the Graduate Center's predominant collective desires. Let's take a look at how the Graduate Center responded to the survey. The respondents asked for a 30-minute performance with a cast of five performers where the audience is mildly incorporated and focused upon. Let's take a look at content. The respondents asked for a new play that begins with a fairly still scene with multiple performers which deals with narrative exposition. The genre chosen for this performance was drama. Based on respondents' favorite geographic region, we have set the peace in Europe in a place of leisure with characters who are strangers to one another. The conflict in the peace comes from both a misunderstanding and a secret. The respondents have chosen for there to be five scenes and for the peace to have no overt political agenda. The peace will be performed in English and language as used 70% of the time. They have asked for it to be written by the creators of this performance. The respondents have asked for the movement in the peace to be traditional staging. They have asked for the quality of the movement to be realistic, simple, small, sustained, smooth, and light. Sound. Respondents want the sound to consist of songs and sound effects and for sound to be present 50% of the time. They have asked for one-minute jazz blues songs that are original and played live and for sound effects that are literal and set the scene. The respondents have asked that the performer's voice is not be amplified. The respondents have asked for the lights to have a medium intensity and for them to change an average amount of times. The dominant color of the lights will be white. The respondents do not want video used in the performance but would like the use of props. They have asked that the costumes be representative of the content and that they have a dominant color of blue and secondary color of white. The respondents do not want nudity. They will have to wear some makeup. The respondents have asked for the piece to end in a resolution. The team here at the Most Wanted Performance have spent the last two weeks creating and rehearsing based on the responses of the CUNY Graduate Center. We have created what they most want. We would like to thank Aaron Ardison, Lucy Kaminsky, and Blaise Ferrer for their help in creating this piece. Enjoy! Have you seen the penguins? Excuse me? Yeah, I'm just... Did you say something about penguins? I was trying to say...no, I was joking. My name is Dean Andrew Goldberg. What did you call me, Dean? It's very good to meet you, Dean. I've been so looking forward to this.  You know, I've always loved this place. There's nothing extraordinary about this now. The colors, the breeze at night. I was born in Ohio and I came here for the first time when I was 23 and I fell deeply in love with someone. My love was returned to me wildly like two rabid beasts chasing each other across the sands of the color de encarnero. The uncantriados towering behind us is the kind of love that hit me so hard it hurt Dean. I could barely catch my breath for days. Anyway, there are problems that eventually kept us apart. I won't go into that. That's...I always find something so attractive in this place. That's why I'm here. I got a job in San Diego when I was 26. I moved there trying to find the same sort of feeling that I got as well. San Dimas. Of course you are. That's uh... That's what? That's how it was meant to be. Right? I am on sabbatical here in Spain. I'm studying the symbolism of Islamic Moorish geometric patterns. It doesn't matter, but I'm enjoying un poco de sol y las vistas agradables. It's nice here. I like it. Mm-hmm. Los vistas agradables de muerte bonito. Yes. Well, the Spanish have a sort of obsession with that, not like the Mexicans, but... Yes. Yes. Do you have any plans this evening? Well, I'm with you. That's the... I won't be joining you. Of course. That would be absolutely wonderful. I don't think I got your name. You...you know... Okay, so we do it like this? Okay. My name is Dr. James Anderson Armstrong. You can call me Dr. Jay. I'm just Jay. So, you are a doctor. Yeah. Wow. Um, so...what is your field of... This is the place. Out on the sand there. Are you okay? Do you need a glass of water or... No, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm fine. You know, I might call to my room for a bit, but... Of course, I'll see you for dinner. Okay? At the... Let's meet in the lobby at seven. Yeah. Yeah. Did you just say, you know, it's a coincidence because just a couple of minutes ago, I said this thing about... Do I know you? Hmm? Me? No. I know you. No, no, I'm sorry. You must be thinking about somebody else. No, I... I'm usually very good at recognizing faces. Name's not so good at, but... No, I know if I've seen a face and I don't think I've seen you. It's me. I'm here. Oh, yes, yes, you're... Okay, okay, you're the one who said... Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.  No! I'm sorry. No, I just... I just want to clear up yesterday's misunderstanding. You know, you're very lovely, of course, and there's something in you that's very familiar, but I'm quite, quite certain that we've never met. Doctor. No, we're meeting now. Go, and... Yes? Yeah. I would love to get to know you more, but... I'm running out of time and I don't have... Doctor, you don't understand. No, I do understand. I'm here from... I'm here for you. This man is joking! That man is joking! Jesus Christ.  Yes.  I'm sorry, are you two... I'm not good at this kind of thing. Are the two of you... Are we together? Yes. No, are you? Right, no, because, well, we had dinner last night and I thought that maybe we'd have some kind of fling on this trip. I don't know why I'm telling this to you, but it felt like so much more than that. I'm on sabbatical. But it is true. And I am a dean. Just out of university. Do you work here? What makes you think I work here? Well, you were singing next to the piano. They asked me to stop. I'm here on business. I'm a consultant. Rent works of art to offices. Wait, do you have dinner with him? Did anything happen afterwards? No. And even if we did, but no. Thank God. I think that's why I have such strong feelings now. It was just so slow. And nice. But a 250-year-old bottle of wine. Did you say thank God to yourself when I said that nothing happened? Oh, I was just remembering something. So, do you have a PhD? Yes, I'm a doctor. What kind of doctor? The classes.  Aren't you supposed to be doing research? I'm a denier. I could do whatever I want. But I'm lonely. I'm getting old. I thought I would meet someone here. I don't want to die alone. You won't. You aren't. Stop me if I'm wrong. But you didn't come here to work, did you? No. I just wanted it to seem like I had something important to do by the pool, some kind of purpose. I told Dr. Jay that I studied Moorish, whatever, geometry or something. I'm just a boring old classics professor sitting by the pool cruising Grindr. I'm just here to meet someone. I can't believe I liked it. Sweet Dr. Jay. My sweet Dr. Jay. Sweet, sweet. I understand. We just went up there and talked. I thought I liked it slow. But I'm honestly getting mixed signals. We were sitting on his bed. I thought he was into me. Has he said anything to you about me? You want to mix signals? No, I was getting from Dr. Jay. Okay, alright. Ambivalent vibes. Prairie dog. He is prairie dogging me with his vibes. I don't think that's the right alternative. Yeah, you know, I have actual work to do. I'm on sabbatical. At the end of the semester, I got drunk and told Bob Moorish that I'd never read Hamlet. And I haven't read Hamlet. And he looked shocked. And I played it off like I was joking. I had to actually read Hamlet and all the versions of Hamlet in case he tried to humiliate me in front of everyone. I had enough time for a relationship. I don't even like Dr. Jay. I'll page him. What's the matter? Dr. Jay, I'm supposed to have a meeting with him. He won't respond. I haven't seen him since earlier today. Looking at the book from the day I had it. Dr. Jay ordered a pitcher of orange juice and chocolate streus meringue. He was the one working out of this hotel. I traveled here from Hong Kong on short notice. I approached him with the code word you gave me. You came here from China? Don't politicize this, Kurt. I was on vacation. You brought me back. I did it your way. Fix it. I thought you didn't work here. This is a mess. I'm going to tell him. Don't tell him. It's the only way this will end. Dr. Brook, I'm going to jail. So you two are together. And you work here? I'm a doctor. Yeah, I'm actually a doctor, too. I'm a medical doctor. Did you have to take an oath to teach Hamlet? What you're saying is because I'm... Deep. Deep. Deep. I need you. You didn't seem to need me this morning. Deep, you don't understand that.  This is not your fault, Mr. Deep. I thought this vacation would be romantic. I went to Mixers. Hung out in the sauna.  I feel like I'll be alone forever. What are you into? I'm also into managing. Later tonight, would you like to join me at a local man bar? He's liking us. No use hiding my true condition from you all now.  It was a rather short life. I'll admit. I tried always to live fully and with all my heart.  I took in all of its joys and all of its woes with equal intensity. What a privilege we have to feel so much in life. Remember, Mary, I never had children. That just wasn't going to happen. But my body is given way. Never could keep up. Damn body. Pains too much now. There's no longer a reason to fight. I've made so many choices in my life. Why not make this ultimate choice in the end? In this place here, the time in my life when I was the happiest. I'm sorry for the confusion. Will you join me?


So we see a lot of challenges in terms of the uptake of analytics, embedding analytics into business processes to derive meaningful insights that organisations can use to improve their business performance, increase profitability, reduce attrition of customers, drive some growth. So while there's a lot of hype around analytics, advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, we're not seeing that cut through in many of the business that we work with, particularly across financial services, the financial services sector, but what across many, many sectors. So there are pockets of innovation and many use cases where advanced analytics are being used, but it's not pervasive across industries. And in fact we've run a number of surveys, our CEO Pulse Survey at PWC, and interestingly one in ten CEOs are looking at advanced or artificial intelligence as a potential disruptor to their business model coming down the road. And that's quite interesting because it shows that again people, it's not front of mind at the moment. Maybe if I elaborate on that, one of the reasons why I think that is is because if you look at where we're coming from and what lies ahead of us on a more macroeconomic basis. So Brexit is going to really front of mind for organisations at the moment. And I think being focused on how you embed analytics into your business processes isn't going to necessarily address some of the challenges that Brexit. That's very, very front and centre. If you look where companies are coming from, we're emerging out of the global financial crisis. And while that happened eight, nine years ago, we're only starting to see kind of regrowth again after many, many years of retrenchment. So really embracing the whole innovation agenda and embracing how analytics can improve business performance is something that I think CEOs and decision makers are very, very aware of but are not necessarily taking the actions to drive it into the heart of their business. So my role is on the partner PwC and I lead out our data and analytics practice. And essentially I'm going to work with our clients, existing clients, target clients to help them understand how they can leverage their data to improve decision making. And the maturity of that is very broad. So it can be simply for organisations to understand, well how do I access my data? Many organisations have some legacy challenges around accessing their data. It sits in many disparate different systems. So just getting access to that data is a challenge for them. So once I access that data, how do I derive insights from that? What sort of tools, what technologies, what infrastructure do I require? And then how do I govern all of that process that sits around that? So we will help organisations with that. Then as you move up the maturity curve, it's more, so how are you using advanced analytics to help you make better decisions? Those decisions need to be led by what problems are we trying to solve within our business? So examples might be we're hemorrhaging customers. So what's driving the fact that you're losing a lot of customers? Are there particular segments of customers that you want to hang on to who you're losing? Or actually are you losing customers who are destroying value for you as an organisation already? And again using analytical techniques to kind of parse out those and understand the differences between high value customers and lower value customers and customers you want to hold on to and customers you want to lose. There are some very good techniques around that. And then right up to the predictive side as well. So we have these customers, if we take a particular action, what is the likelihood reaction from the customer? And this all kind of falls around that whole area of how do we better improve the personalisation of our products and services to our customers. So again data and analytics is just another tool, it's just another technique, but it really can be used to enhance how you're managing your customers, how you're solving particular problems within your business.


Hello, you're watching the International Daily Roundup with People's Dispatch, where we bring you some of the major stories from across the world. Let's take a look at today's headlines. Venezuela denounces US veto blocking access to IMF's COVID-19 funds. Iraq set to hold parliamentary elections after October 2019 mass protests. Indigenous activists occupy Petroperu pipeline facility to protest contamination. And finally, health workers in Guinea-Bissau go on strike against unsafe working conditions. In our first story, we take a look at Venezuela, which has stated that the International Monetary Fund or the IMF has blocked access to $5 billion. The funds are part of the special drawing rights to help countries deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. The amount was authorized in August as part of a $650 billion global fund. However, the IMF said that Venezuela could not use the funds. The reason given was supposed concerns about the legitimacy of the government. US-backed coup leader Juan Guaidó also proclaimed that the funds would be discussed during the talks in Mexico. Venezuelan Vice President Delcey Rodriguez condemned the IMF's decision at a United Nations meeting on Wednesday. She argued that it was the result of a veto by the United States, which is the funds largest shareholder. She added that over 430 US economic sanctions had cost Venezuela over $63 billion. She also condemned the unequal distribution of funds under the special drawing rights. The Group of Seven or G7 countries received 40% of the allocation. Meanwhile, developing countries received only 2.3% so far. Unilateral US sanctions are blocking critical medical supplies required by Venezuela. Most recently, the US-owned Portuguese bank Novo Banco has been blocking a payment for an order of 15 million vaccines since July. Early voting in Iraq's upcoming parliamentary elections started on October 8. Over 25 million people will be eligible to vote and elect 329 members of parliament on October 10. The country has been divided into 83 constituencies. 3,240 candidates are contesting the elections. However, the popular unrest against the government has led some to believe that there may be a low turnout. Iraq witnessed mass protests against corruption, lack of governance and economic conditions in October 2019. Then Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mehdi resigned and fresh elections were announced for 2021. However, the protests continued this year with people demanding an overall of the political system. They also denounced the government's failure to prevent the killings of activists and protesters. Since 2019, the Iraqi Human Rights Commission has documented around 600 such killings. The rate of poverty in Iraq is hovering between 27 to 32 percent. The unemployment rate has also reached 40 percent in recent years. Citing the government's failure to address the demands for reform, the Iraqi Communist Party has also withdrawn from the elections. The communists were a part of the largest alliance in the Iraqi parliament in 2018. However, it withdrew its support from the Mehdi government after 2019 protests. In a statement in July, the Communist Party emphasized the need for a safe and fair electoral environment. It called for an end to the proliferation of arms and demanded accountability against corruption. Around 200 protesters have shut down a pipeline facility in Peru's Mansaricha district. People from the indigenous Avayun community occupied station number 5 of the North Peruvian pipeline on October 4. They are demanding that the government comply with existing agreements on environmental remediation. Other demands include the provision of basic services and proper infrastructure. They have also asked for the creation of a fund for the decontamination of areas affected by oil operations. The action is part of the Amazon strike launched on October 1. It has been organized by the Avayun Rio Apaga Native Federation and the peoples affected by petroleum activity. North Peruvian is operated by the state-owned company Petro Peru. It pumps approximately 200,000 barrels of crude oil every day. The government has documented 37 spills on the pipeline since 1996. However, according to Earthrights, independent sources put the number at 190. The Peruvian government had to declare a public health emergency across four whole river basins in 2016. Protesters have set up camps inside the Petro Peru facility demanding a response from the government. And for our final story, we go to Guinea-Bissau where health workers have been on strikes since September 20. Doctors, nurses and other health workers at the Simao Mendes National Hospital were the first to walk out. United under the banner of Let's Stay Home to be valued, they are protesting unsafe working conditions. A 2017 United Nations report found that most clinics and basic healthcare posts lacked electricity and water supplies. There was also a critical shortage of medical personnel and wages in the healthcare sector remained low. Striking workers are demanding an increase in the health budget in 2022. They have also demanded adequate staffing and the validation of professional credentials. The government reportedly suspended risk allowances for health workers between April and June. Workers are also demanding that the outstanding amount be paid. The strike initially impacted all medical operations including COVID-19 wards. However, essential services were soon restored by SINQUAS, CINTESA and UNTGCS unions. Despite this, the government brought in military doctors to replace striking workers. The move was denounced as undemocratic and eight directors at the Simao Mendes Hospital resigned. That's all for today's episode. We will be back next week with more news from around the world. Until then, keep watching People's Dispatch. Thank you.


Hello everyone and welcome to the Circuit Python Weekly for June 14th, 2021. This is the time of the week where we get together to talk about all things Circuit Python. I'm Katny and I'm sponsored by Adafruit to work on Circuit Python. Circuit Python is a version of Python designed to run on tiny computers called microcontrollers. Circuit Python Development is primarily sponsored by Adafruit, so if you want to support them and Circuit Python, consider purchasing hardware from Adafruit.com. This meeting is hosted on the Adafruit Discord server. You can join anytime by going to adafru.it-slash-discord. We hold the meeting in the Circuit Python Dev Text Channel and the Circuit Python Voice Channel. This meeting typically happens on Mondays at 2 p.m. Eastern, 11 a.m. Pacific, except when it coincides with the U.S. holiday. If the meeting time is changed, we'll notify you via Discord, or if you wish to be notified about the changes to the meeting, we can add you to the Circuit Python East as Discord role. There is also a calendar available that we try to keep updated if you'd like to subscribe to that. This meeting is recorded. We record audio from the Voice Channel and video of the Text Channel. If you'd rather not have your voice recorded, you are still welcome to participate. The video of this meeting will be posted to YouTube and the audio is released as a podcast. If this podcast is not available on your favorite podcast service, please let us know. There is a notes document to accompany the meeting and the recording. If you wish to participate but you can't make it to the meeting, you can leave hug reports and status updates for us in the document and we'll read them off during the meeting. The notes document also contains timestamps to go along with the video, so you can use the document to view only the parts of the video that interest you most. The meeting tends to run 60 to 90 minutes, so this gives you the opportunity to skip around. A link to the notes document is posted to the Circuit Python Dev Channel in Adafruit Discord every week. Check the pinned messages for the latest Notes Dog. This meeting is held in five parts. The first part is community news, which is a look at everything Circuit Python and Python on hardware in the community. It's a preview of our Python and microcontrollers newsletter. The second is the state of Circuit Python, Libraries, and Blinka. This is a statistical overview of the entire project. It is a chance to look at the project by the numbers separate from what we're all up to. The third is hug reports. Hug reports is an opportunity to highlight the good thing folks are up to, taking the opportunity to recognize the awesome folks in our community. The fourth part is status updates. Status updates is an opportunity to sync up on what we've been up to. Take a couple minutes to talk about what you've been doing in the last week since the last meeting and what you'll be up to over the next week until the next meeting. And the fifth and final part is in the weeds. In the weeds is when we have our more long-form discussions. These discussions can come out of status updates or be something you've identified ahead of time is too long for status updates. And that is how the meeting will go. So with that, I will go back to the notes and get started with community news. So first up, Tom's Hardware Best RP2040 Boards 2021. While the Raspberry Pi has its own RP2040-powered board in the Raspberry Pi Pico, there are now more than a dozen third-party solutions that offer improvements, which range from smaller sizes to built-in Wi-Fi, more storage, and a lot of additional outputs. There are even RP2040-powered keypads. Adafruit has three of the 10 boards, and that is available on Tom's Hardware. Next up, GitHub repository use from within Visual Studio Code. The remote repositories extension lets you quickly browse, search, edit, and commit to any remote GitHub repository directly from within Visual Studio Code. And that is there's a blog post and a YouTube video there. Next up is 2021. The year Windows became a first-class Python development environment. This is a quote from a post. I felt so badly burned by Apple's laptop hardware design decisions for a few years ago that I've fallen rather out of love with the platform for my personal work. My first choice was the Linux desktop, and after months of struggling, instability, and accessibility issues, I'll admit I've been looking for more stable, solid solutions that are also powerful enough to get the job done and maybe even have something new to offer. If you've tangled with Windows in the past and found yourself struggling against its rather Byzantine UI, I'd urge you to read on to see if maybe it's not time for another careful look. Next up, PyFest is this week. PyFest is an online festival dedicated to Python. The aim is to bring all the Python community together in a fun interactive event. Join for a series of lightning talks, artistic performances, quizzes, and more, starting on 16 June 2021. It'll be free and streamed on YouTube and Twitch. Next up is John Park's Circuit Python Parsec, and this week he shows how to use the map range function. There's a video there. Next up is MagTagCaps, which is you get the top post from Reddit r slash world news without using Reddit's API and display it on an Adafruit MagTag. Next up is how to build an RP2040 powered shortcut keyboard with Circuit Python, and that is on Tom's hardware. Next up is the world's cutest 3D printed macro pad, inspired by Romley's KeyCappy and powered by Adafruit QDPy and Circuit Python. So this has been a preview of the Circuit Python weekly newsletter, which is a Circuit Python community-run newsletter emailed every Tuesday. The archives are available on adafruitdaily.com. It highlights the latest Python on hardware-related news from around the web, including Circuit Python, Python, and MicroPython developments. To contribute, you can edit next week's draft on GitHub or submit a PR, and you can also tag a tweet with hashtag CircuitPython on Twitter or email cpnews at adafruit.com. And that is community news. If you want to subscribe to the newsletter, it's adafruitdaily.com is where you subscribe as well. It's a separate thing from your Adafruit account. Yeah, so next up is the state of Circuit Python, the libraries, and Blinka. This is an opportunity to look at the health of the project by the numbers separate from what it is we're actually up to. We'll talk about the project overall and then separately talk about the core, the libraries, and Blinka. So I will get started with an overall view of what's going on. So we had 43 pull requests merged this week by 23 authors glancing through those names. I recognize most of them. Netroy, I don't recognize. Ben Clifford. The rest I think I recognize at least from one or two PRs. And then 15 different reviewers, which is also amazing. And then we had 17 issues closed by 13 people and 22 open by 19 people. So overall we are up in issues. But it's great to see so many people involved with those issues. So with that, I will turn it over to Jeff to talk about the core. Hi, I'm substituting for Scott since he is out on a much needed vacation. And I will tell you about the core where we had 11 pull requests merged, including one of the others. I'm pretty sure is new Netroy and also Ben Clifford, whose name I'm not familiar with. We had just six reviewers, kind of the normal list of suspects. Although thank you, Jose Posada and FOMI guy. You review less often in the corner. It's always nice to have you helping out so it can bring in more changes. There are 19 open pull requests ranging from zero to 264 days old. And issues wise, we were up three with six issues closed by four people and nine opened by eight people, leaving 465 open issues. We prioritize our work by milestones. And the key ones are that for the 6XX bug fixes, we have three issues we like to resolve. And for 7-0-0, we have 58 open issues that we'd like to fix bugs or implement new features before we go to a 7-0 release candidate. And that is where our focus is. So the 6-3-0 release continues to be stable. Although as I mentioned, we do have three issues we'd like to resolve in a future bug fix release. Most of the work is going on in the main branch, which will become 7-0. There's not a specific schedule. Instead, we're working on the issues tagged 7-0-0, and as that number decreases, we'll move towards a beta release. And think months, not weeks. The recent improvement to the main branch that I'm most excited about is that you can now run a command to install the CircuitPython stubs locally so advanced source code editors such as PyCharm can help diagnose mistakes like calling functions with the wrong number of arguments, but without even running your code. And so early hug report to FOMIGI for laying the groundwork for this and that wraps it up for the core. Thanks, Jeff. Next up, I will talk about the libraries. So this applies to all of the Adafruit CircuitPython libraries, which are Adafruit underscore, CircuitPython underscore, library name to our cookie cutter, which is how we set up our libraries initially, and to the community bundle as well. So across all of those repos, we had 22 pull requests merged. From 10 different authors and 14 reviewers, which I'm loving to see that we've got more reviewer involvement than author involvement this week. The oldest pull request closed was 158 days, and it leaves us with 50 open pull requests. We had nine closed issues by eight people and 12 opened by 12 people, leaving us with 314 open issues. If you're interested in contributing to CircuitPython on the Python side of things, consider going to circuitpython.org slash contributing. You'll find all of this information and more, a list of open pull requests, a list of open issues, and some library infrastructure issues. You can search the issues by label or search through them by searching for a particular sensor or something into that effect in the page. And if you find an issue you would like to work on, please make a note on that issue and let us know, and we're perfectly happy to help you get sorted, getting started with that as well. If you want to take on an open pull request, feel free to comment on it. It's a great way to get started reviewing. And once you feel more comfortable with it, we can talk about leveling you up to joining our review team. These are all great ways to contribute on the Python side of things. We're always looking for more reviewers. The more reviewers we have, the more authors we can support. In terms of new libraries this week, there were not any, but there were a number of updated libraries, which I will not read off, but they are in the notes doc. So overall, we've moved all of our circuit Python libraries to the main default branch. Early Hug Report to Dylan for all the amazing work there, and Early Hug Report to Justin for creating a tool that made updating learn super simple. We're continuing to get through older PRs. Jose David has done up a report that covers the rest of the open PRs and suggestions on what to do, which we'll be discussing more in the weeds. I'm really happy to see us getting caught up on library PRs and continuing to stay caught up on the recent ones. Thank you to everyone who contributes and to those who have been contributing their own libraries to the community bundle. And with that, I will turn it over to Melissa to talk about Blinka. Sorry, I couldn't find my button here. Okay. Let's see. For Blinka, which is our circuit Python compatibility layer for Raspberry Pi, MicroPython, and other single board computers, we have 10 pull requests merged this week. And by three authors and three reviewers, which is awesome. We have, that leaves three open pull requests. There were two closed issues by two people, one open by one person leaving a net of 57 open issues. There were 7,018 Pi PI downloads in the last week, which is a lot. And there were, we currently are supporting 75 boards. 10 PRs is pretty high for this week too. It is, it is, yeah. That's great to see. All right. Thank you, Melissa. So that sums up the state of circuit Python, the libraries, and Blinka. Next up is Hug Reports. Hug Reports is a chance for us to highlight the awesome things that folks are doing in our community. It's a chance to say thanks, both to individuals or to the community as a whole. And what I will do is I will start as an example, and then I will go through the list alphabetically, reading off notes for those who have notes, and then actually turning it over to folks who are participating in voice in the meeting. It's around Robin, which gives everybody a chance to speak and starts with me. So with that, I will get started. So first up, I hug reports to Dylan for getting all the libraries moved from master to the main default branch. That was a huge undertaking that she managed to figure out a lot of things to automate and a lot of different ways to do things. And it all ended up going much faster than I think any of us expected and much smoother than any of us expected. So that's been amazing. We're down to just a couple of super complicated ones that have a lot of moving parts, and so we're doing those much more slowly, but it's maybe two or three left. And all the Circuit Python library is removed. This is other Circuit Python related stuff. Hug Reports to Jose David for going through all the library PRs and reviewing and merging, et cetera. And then a hug report to Justin, who is one of our internal learn development folks for creating a tool that allows us to easily update the links to GitHub code embedded in learn guides to main. Initially, we thought we were going to have to search learn manually and find these links and then update them manually. And Justin thought that was nonsense and wrote a tool to, you put in a wrap-out, it searches for it, it finds all the embeds and it updates them. So it made the entire thing, we were able to move the entire repo of learn, learn guide data over in 20 minutes tops. It was crazy. So that was amazing. Thank you very much, Justin, for that. And then I've got some notes from some folks that I will read off now. First up, Keith, the EE. I can get the time stamp, right? It says hug report to Jose David for helping me get my first pull request organized and through the start of last week and offering a lot of perspective throughout the process. And then a hug to the community as a whole for being awesome and making the experience great. Next, I have notes from Kingard North who says a general hug as, or to all as the updates and improvements keep coming. And with that, I will turn it over to Melissa. Let's see. Okay, hug reports. So I wanted to give a hug report to the Samurai Pupra for submitting a better I2C implementation of Blinka Display IO and a hug report to Katni and Dylan for helping me with moving some master repos to Maine and group activity for us. All right, excellent. Next up, I've got notes for someone who is not in the meeting. That doesn't say text only, but I don't see them here, so I will read them off. This is Ask Patrick W. Who says, very busy with day job, but I wanted to send a group hug and a hug to Katni for the Circuit Python Community Code of Conduct work. Next up is C Grover. I wanted to give a hug to Zoltan for the latest release of ULAB for Circuit Python 7.0. I was able to load it and get it to work. And I'm really looking forward to using more of the numpy-compatible layer in that. It's just fantastic for sensor and image processing, which I seem to be doing a little bit more of lately. And hugs to Ann and Lady Aida for their really prompt and complete moderation for the early publication of the thermal camera learning guide. They were big help in getting that pushed through and published, and now I can move on to other projects. All right, thank you. Next up is Dan. Okay, thanks. I'd like to thank Dave Putz, who wanted to read the CPU voltage on a SAMD or a SAMB processor and found a thread on an at-mail form that I wrote two years ago and said, why aren't we doing what I said, basically, without actually recognizing that my name was there and made a change and suggested it, and now it works. The SAMD 51 has a really flaky internal aspects and the ATD converter are very flaky, but we managed to get it to work. So thank you very much. Okay. All right. Next up, I have notes from David Glaude, who says, hug report to C Grover and those that helped him, including Ann, for the improved thermal camera learn guide and a group hug. Next up is Foamy Guy. All right, thanks, Kenny. Thanks, Cugs, for Jepler, for improving the setup pie for the stubs configuration. There was an issue that was revealed by Read the Docs, and Jeff figured out a fix for that that I think is all around better anyway, a way to upload a pie pie. So thank you there. To Dishipu for a really good suggestion on a variable name. I was struggling a little bit with the way to do it and have it make sense. And Dishipu recommended a perfect way. So thank you for that. And lastly, for me this week, to Diharata, Katni, and Maker Melissa for working on moving the libraries to the main default branch. It's really great to see. Thanks. All right. Next up is Hierifact. Alrighty. This past week, thanks a bunch to Dan for his assistance on some stuff related to the set next file port. Thank you to Sue Walter for their existing work on that port. And getting the early stuff together for it. Thanks to Dishipu, Robert, Gallup, and Scott for their thoughts and contributions to the problem. And thanks to Maholi for taking a look at implementing the alarm module and low power on SAMD. And that's it for me. All right. Next up is Jeff. Hi. I'd like to thank Fomiguy and Dan H for quick feedback on some PRs that was back at the beginning of last week. And again, to Fomiguy for that first push on getting setup.py to install the stubs. To Lamor and PT for helping me keep up beat while working on camera stuff. It was a little bit of a slog, but at the end of last week, we finally had a breakthrough, so that's great too. And finally, thanks to Jerry for testing that code and giving some useful feedback. Excellent. And next up is Jerry. Thanks to you, Jeff, for getting that code working, the parallel image capture and the OB7670 stuff on the ESP32. Fun to have. And Dylan and everybody else has been involved in all the migration domain. It's nice to see that all happening. Thanks. Excellent. And then I have finally notes. To read from Jose David to Woolsey J, user in GitHub for adding support for the 74HC165 driver library to the community bundle and to Laysamai Purpre for clear given explanations on how to add libraries to PyPI. And with that, we have hug reports. Next up is status updates. So status updates is a chance for us to talk about what we've been up to since the last meeting, what we're going to be up to until the next meeting. Please take a couple of minutes to tell us about what you've been up to and feel free to include fun things as well. We don't just need to hear about CircuitPython. We love to hear about all sorts of things like Jerry's bathroom remodeling, for example, that whole saga was excellent. So with that, I will start and then we'll loop through the alphabet down and back up just like we did for hug reports. So I will get started. Last week was jam-packed. I updated the CircuitPython.org slash libraries page to have the 7x bundle now that we had a 7x release. Updated the readme for the project bundler to reflect the change in how it works. Now when you download a project bundle, it has two folders in it, one for 6x and one for 7x because the empires are different. So the library compatibility is different. So depending on which version of CircuitPython you're using, you would choose that folder. So the readme explains that quickly so that you kind of know what you're doing once you open that folder versus not having any idea what any of that means. And then we'll plan to update the readme for CircuitPython releases. I updated the Adafruit community code of conduct and then created a PR to generate a CircuitPython community code of conduct for community libraries. This was requested by a couple of folks who submitted libraries to the community bundle and pointed out the fact that when they run cookie cutter it adds the Adafruit CircuitPython I'm sorry, the Adafruit community library to the personal libraries of these folks. So we want one that's more generalized that applies to the community libraries and so we're working through that right now on a pull request. I added a CircuitPython NeoPixel example to the RotaryQT guide. It's a Rotaryencoder I2C breakout and using the NeoPixel on it was not intuitive. It took me a half hour to figure it out and so it was definitely there was feedback on the guide about asking if it was a RotaryPixel and it was good that that came up because it meant that I was able to add an example to the guide. I made the CircuitPython install page on the FeatherRP2040 into a template. The template already existed but it did not exist when I did that guide and so that meant this was the first time that I tested the replace page feature in learn live previously tested it only in the development environment and it worked I found one thing that needs to be fixed but that's how it goes with new features. I fixed a couple of miscellaneous things I added a section on using SafeMode and CircuitPython to the RP2040 install page template so it's in all of the RP2040 board guides presumably something like that is going to get added to the other install pages as well but that was the first place that we deployed it. I started the slider trinky guide so that should be out this week I updated the get and get hub contributing to CircuitPython using get and get hub guide to include a section on deleting your fork and your local clone and then forking again and cloning locally again this is the simplest way to update your setup to use the main default branch if you previously forked and cloned a repo that was updated so check out that guide it's called starting over fresh the pages and it walks through the steps to do that. Note that if you have local work and you have not committed or rather that has not been PR'd to the original project you will lose it so don't do this if you have a bunch of work in your repo that you're just keeping for yourself either move the work out and move it back in or do something to that effect but if you are just getting started with contributing to a particular library but you already contributed to it last year this is the easiest way to deal with it. This week finished the slider trinky guide there's a PR on PyPixelBuff I need to test that revert something I did because a flag turned something off in CircuitPython 7 and somebody caught it and turned it back on so the change I made is no longer necessary but I need to test it to make sure and then I'm starting the QT RP2040 Trinky Guide and that's going to cover using the NeoPixel and the button in CircuitPython as well as using it with U2IF and I'll do a new template for I2C that is meant to go in this guide but will go in any CircuitPython board guide eventually on how to use CircuitPython I2C etc and then this evening I'm getting my second COVID vaccine so I really have no idea how the rest of this week will end up looking but I'm super excited about that and that is my update so next I have some notes to read from KingerNorth who said the last couple of weeks I have been working on a new course proposal with the local college through a program set up by the Ministry of Colleges and Universities in Ontario for grant money this is a new program of micro-credentials my proposal has advanced and has been officially submitted to the college in the Ontario government I've created this called microcontrollers for commercial applications the course is using both CircuitPython and Arduino this week I just built a 3x3x3 LED cube which I've never built one before and I'll be writing code and testing it using CircuitPython on a couple of RP2040 boards Feather and Pico that I have also purchased my first Raspberry Pi a Pi 400 and I'm starting to use it with both a monitor and a cyberdeck TFT new adventures next up is Melissa hello so last week I finished up my voice to Jason guide I updated the EPD guide with first CircuitPython with a new 2.13 inch e-ink display Arduino CircuitPython and Python I tested a fixed SDL script for the Pi TFT guides and updated the guides I moved a number of Blinka and Raspberry Pi related repos from master to main I think it was around 10 and all and I went through and fixed a handful of repos that were not passing their checks just because they hadn't been updated in a while this week I'm going to finish up fixing those repos I think I just have one left I need to test out using Python extended bus on a Raspberry Pi with multiple SPI devices I need to take a look at an outstanding PR on the web serial ESP tool and I'm planning on starting to work on a Microsoft Lobe guide and that's it all right great next up I have some notes to read from Mark Gambler who says looking more into the ESP32 S2 display glitches now that I have a logic analyzer I can't make in the weeds this week but there seems to be an occasional delay in the row column commands to the display causing an issue I'll keep looking next up is C Grover let's see since the guide was published this week I can start working on some old projects that have been nagging at me and calling to me from across the workshop and one of them was a robotic heirloom cuckoo clock that I built about a year ago and it's been running quite well but the servomechanisms are starting to wear out the original mechanical whistles and I'm worried about since this thing is about 50 years old at least the components of the clock are 50 years old I'm worried about losing the sound from those original whistles so I'm in the recording studio today and I'm trying to get some high resolution tracks done so that I can preserve them forever and then include them as samples in the heirloom clock project so they'll be backups if the servos or the whistles eventually fail and then I've got some PCBs I love making PCBs I've got some PCBs designed to replace a Cluj in the motor tester appliance and it'll be kind of fun to deal with a dual INA 260 with the motor driver chips the traces and the heat loading and current loading for that oh and I get an Oshpark sticker out of the deal too can't go wrong there alright excellent next up is Dan okay scrolling backwards um so I've been working on I was out last Monday uh and I would mostly working on keypad support both single pin per key and matrix keypad scanning and I've rewritten this thing like three and a half times to try to get the API simpler and to provide enough functionality there really are two completely different use cases sort of like keyboard scanning where you might want events and another case where you just want to know uh whether a key is pressed so kind of like transitions and also just state and I thought I had another solution on Friday and then I rewrote that on Sunday and then this morning I said I can do this even simpler and so I'm doing that and it's been really frustrating but I think I've zeroed in on the right thing this is kind of how I tend to write code is like try to implement it and see what's wrong and flush out the without specking it completely in advance and I'm glad that I did it this way um so that's I will continue to do that and try to finish it as soon as possible because we have some products in the pipeline that will use this okay alright thanks Dan next I have some notes uh from David Glaude who says by editing previous comment and changing the previous emoji there is a link to a gist with some code and the demo was done during uh David's hug report I did see that go by um next up is foamy guy alright thanks Kenny uh last week I made some code for the rotary trinky to work as a brightness a screen brightness uh crank basically you can have a little crankshaft on there and crank up and down your brightness um I started work on the image load library to allow it to work with file like objects in particular we're interested in bytes I O object um so that way you could load an image that doesn't necessarily have a file on the circuit pie drive um and when I sat down to start working on that I was had my memory jogged of something from back in around I think March around that went in that library for a particular build that happened to be out at that time and that work around is no longer needed so I went ahead and made a PR to remove that uh for this week I am going to be working on the case I have the the second iteration of the case coming off the printer right now so I'll be making a case for that rotary trinky um and then uh last thing I have for this week so far is um I got to try to learn about high pi versioning and figure out how we can have separate uh stable and latest releases for the stubs that way we can have hopefully just one listing but separate versions for it quick question about the brightness crank does it work on mac os or is it windows only it's uh I believe it works on iOS actually yeah I was talking to uh PT and somebody I'm not sure who but somebody tested it on iOS and it does work there so I would assume mac as well but I'm not 100% sure on the I'd be interested to see that because I put a demo in the um slider trinky guide for monitor brightness control but it only works on windows gotcha uh yeah let me I can uh I'll paste a link here in a minute with the code that does it basically cheers thanks okay uh next up is higher effect okay so this past week I wrote up a bunch of learn documentation for the alarm module um as it exists on uh the other ports that it's been ported to so nrf rp 2040 and stm 32 all now have the alarm module um and they'll there will be a learn page out for that pretty soon on the existing sleep guide um I got started on merging in code for the supervisor set next file feature this is a feature that allows you to have a menu in circuit python that uh you can navigate on and actually pick another file in your drive to run next time you reload so you can exit the menu and then I'll actually start up another program that you've imported um this is something that we can get a short term version out uh soon but it has a bunch of weirdness as far as it in uh interactions with deep sleep um deep sleep is gonna kind of be messy so this week I'm going to be doing that initial implementation that's just sort of deep sleep agnostic but then also um doing some kind of surrounding work uh to try and prep for uh deep sleep integration on that um until Scott gets back to clarify some things about the api um and uh I'll be filling out some kind of related features like sleep memory on the stm 32 and rp 2040 to try and support that work and that's it for me all right thanks next up is Jeff hi again so um last week let's see oh I'm looking at Jerry's notes no wonder they don't make sense um I finally got the ov76 camera working on the esp32 s2 the pro request is in but I think it hasn't been reviewed yet in any case it wasn't merged the last I looked and this means some incompatible changes in the parallel image capture class because the esp32 s2 can use the pins in any order with gaps which was different than the first two that I implemented so that will be fixed also in the adafruit ov76 70 library with a second poll request the development kit from expressive for the esp32 s2 called kaluga had two versions version 1.2 and 1.3 their pinouts are a little different so I added the version 1.3 board to the main branch uh it says here I tracked down and fixed some other fun stuff I don't remember what that even was and I helpful me a guy out a little bit with the setup dot py to install the stubs to to the crack location in a slightly better way so this week I'm returning back to creating initialization code for the ov26 40 camera which I think I will continue working on on the rp20 40 due to some glitches on the samd 51 that I don't want to get in the weeds about I also discovered that I squared C speeds below 100 kilohertz uh don't actually operate below 100 kilohertz on samd 51 no idea why there's an issue filed um I will not be looking at that in the immediate term um in personal stuff um I would like to upgrade my keyboard to 70 pre-release so that I get the ability to shut off the rebel uh but before I do that I need to feel like I have good access to its reset button which is hidden deep inside the keyboard you got to remove about 12 screws to press reset so that's not good design um and then finally I would like to put in a little time I was excited about these stubs in uh pie charm and other editors but the micro lab stubs um don't appear under the right place so um you want to be able to write uh import ulab.numpi as np and then np.ndarray to access the constructor of the array object but pie charm presumably because of what's written in the stubs thinks that um ndarray is actually directly in ulab and not in ulab.numpi so it doesn't give you the accurate help so I'd like to look into that uh no guarantees because the camera stuff is my top priority but that's what's on my mind thank you. Thanks Jeff. Next up is Jerry. Let's see where does that go okay so yes I spent a bunch of time playing with the uh ob7 670 camera on the kaluga that was a lot of fun and in the process I ended up learning a lot about how the display IO init sequence works for the ili 9341 and so it's always kind of fun to dig into something like that demystify what was always a very black box to me here's the cat right on cue um and the examples from uh from Jeff were really very educational and helpful in sort of exploring what was going on um and then over the last couple of days I spent a bunch of time chasing down what looks like maybe an issue an stioio on the stm32 released on the f405 I'm getting some intermittent IO errors when I write to the sd card um I'm still trying to work out a minimal case to make a good issue out of it but um it looks like there's something funny there because if I run the same code on a feather m4 using sd card IO or an m0 with just sd card I don't I don't get any errors so something funny maybe going on there so or or to come up with that and then just this morning I stumbled across an issue with print and circuit pythons so just a heads up I did put an issue in but on some of the builds or most of the builds if you try and use the flush keyword in a print statement it will fail um so far I only found it works on the m0 but not on the m4 the on rf or the esp32 or the stm32 so look another thing to look for and then I'll be out next week my grandkids and their parents are visiting so this is the first time since pre-pandemic so I'm kind of excited about that List in an order of importance yes alright and finally I have some notes from Jose David who says last week PR reviewing and status report learning guides updates for the bme280 adding some of my community libraries to pypi working on the si47 13 driver to have the radio stations update i2c addresses learning guide and this week PR reviewing and others and that is status updates so next up is in the weeds in the weeds is an opportunity for more long form discussions things that don't make sense for status updates or things in status updates that turn into long form discussions we move them to in the weeds so I have two topics here the first one involves me and Jose David we were going to talk about the open PR situation Jose David put together this list that is all the current open PR's and what suggestions on what should or what could be done with them um so I wanted to pop this um into oh excellent it was updated last Thursday um I wanted to pop this into the chat and let everybody take a look at it um if anybody's got any opinions on these it would be great to um comment on the PR itself would be the best um way to go about it I think um the list is quite thorough so I don't have a whole lot to add to the list um but I I guess I wanted everyone to be able to take a look at that and if um if anyone has any suggestions for PR's or thoughts on them or it's your PR and you're waiting on us um Jose David has been going through all the PR's so there should be activity on pretty much all of them except for I think there's a few that um we weren't really sure what to do with so there hasn't been comments made yet but um be aware that we're going through all that um I'm thinking uh Jose David that um I will take a look at it more closely later this week um it might not be till next week because this week I've got um a couple of priority guides that need to be finished and then um we'll see what we can do beyond that and on top of that Scott will be back at that point um he's back not next week but the week after so um I don't think we need to go into too much detail right now just because um Jose David is typing yep alright sounds good so the next one is uh the next topic is um also from Jose David uh says could we create different tags for identifying PRs? I'm thinking two labels that could be helpful one is for when the PR could modify some learning guides and the second is when a PR will need a revision change um I think this is absolutely an excellent idea uh if I remember correctly adabot our script can apply not I just not remember correctly I know the adabot our script can apply um new labels to um two libraries so I presume anyway that that would apply it could apply to adding PR labels um otherwise we would need to do it manually which is a slog so I'm pretty sure adabot can do that um I will think on what to call them I know the PR one should definitely or them sorry the learning guide one could definitely be added um the revision change one um we could probably add breaking change is what that one would be called um because that indicates we need to definitely bump it more um yeah that would update learn and breaking change um both of those sound good um so I will uh if you could if you could send me an email about this that would be great so that it doesn't slip my um doesn't slip my radar perfect and I will have Dylan uh do things we need to patch on on the libraries in the next couple weeks um so we'll do we'll do a whole patch for everything um all together okay I think that's about it um I can't think of any other ones but I do agree that we should be um putting labels on PRs I think that's an excellent idea and as we if I mean obviously we can always do another adabot patch so if we um come up with um if we come up with uh more labels that make sense we can add them as time goes flag for unintended consequences yes we'll figure we'll make we'll make GitHub automatically figure out how to add that one um okay I think we're good then um unless anybody's got anything else nope okay I'm gonna go ahead and um wrap up then get down to wrap up here um alright this has been the Circuit Python Weekly for June 14th thank you to everyone who participated if you want to support Adafruit and Circuit Python and those of us that work on Circuit Python consider purchasing from the Adafruit shop at adafruit.com the video of this meeting will be released on YouTube at YouTube slash Adafruit and the podcast will be available on major podcast services it will also be featured in the Python for Microcontrollers newsletter visit adafruitdaily.com to subscribe the next meeting will be held on Monday as usual as far as I know um that's the 21st of June it looks like and um this meeting is held on the Adafruit Discord which you can join at any time by going to adafru.it slash discord to be notified about the meeting and any changes to the day or time you can ask to be added to Circuit Python Easter's role and with that I hope to see you all next week thanks everybody thank you Katny


The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency and the L.E.A. has intercepted a drug kingpane for ingested 87 raps of cocaine. A 41-year-old E.B.E.G.K. was arrested at Nnamdi Aziki Wain to National Airport a boager on Wednesday as he arrived from Kigali. He tested positive to ingestion of drugs and excreted 87 pallets of cocaine weighing 1.884 kilograms. In another incident, Legos-based drug dealer Ezi Okori has been arrested following the interception of 4.15 kilograms of methamphetamine going to London. The drug was concealed in teams of tomatoe packaged for delivery at the Marotala-Mohamed International Airport. Other arrests announced by N.D.L.E.A. spokesman Femmi Baba Femmi, include those of three suspects with different weight of cocaine and skunk in Cross River State.


The Kraft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the great Gildesleeve. Gildesleeve is brought to you partially transcribed by the Kraft Foods Company. There are lots of good reasons for serving Kraft's new Parquet margarine.  It looks wonderful, it tastes wonderful, and it spreads smoothly even when ice cold. Now there's still another reason for buying Kraft's new Parquet regularly. With every pound, you can order a pair of famous Powers model nylon stockings at half price. I'll tell you more about Parquet margarine's sensational offer in just a minute. Nobody tries harder than the great Gildesleeve to be on good terms with everybody, especially his girlfriends. But even girls as sympathetic as Lila Ransom and Grace Tuttle find it difficult to understand how the water commissioner can make dates with each of them for the same night. Hello? Hello? Hello me? She hung up on me. Yeah? Lira, she won't even talk to me. What? I did. She won't talk to me either. I don't deserve this. Why should I be cast aside like an old shoe? Because I think you're a heel? Lira... Lucky being a bachelor, but I've changed my mind. I'd rather be married. Why? Well, when you're married, you only got one woman to contend with. Well, I'm going to phone again and give Lila one more chance. Lira, I let the dog in. That 140-pound grade dane could knock down the door if he took a run at it. Trouble's enough. Yes, trouble's too. It just handles his better than you, uncle. What? You only got two girlfriends. The dog's got a... The more receptive mood. I'll get very interceded for me. Lira Ransom likes you. Will you see if you can get her to talk to me? You mean I got to stay out with Mrs. Ransom? Well, it would help, Bertie. The job, Bertie, gets around here. Bertie cooks the meals, keeps the house and plays Cupid on the side. Well, you might play on her sympathies. Tell her I'm not feeling well. That's because I got a cake in the oven. Yes, ma'am. Hiya, Mrs. Ransom. I'll be good with Miracle Whip. Oh, hi. Bertie, come to the point. I'm going to have sandwiches. That's what I'm going to have. All them in the paper, wouldn't they cute? Bertie. Excuse me, Mrs. Ransom. Yes, ma'am. Say something about me. Oh, speaking of going downtown, there's a gentleman here who'd be glad to drive you and maybe buy you a lunch. Good going. A gentleman? Yes, and Mr. Giffley. Good-bye. I think she hung up on you again. Good. I wanted the problems. But if we start talking to your teacher about yours, we can ease into mine. You were giving up on Mrs. Ransom, huh? You know, I can be as often as she can. Besides, I can persuade Grace to go out with me. I won't miss Lila. She hasn't answered the door. I wonder if she saw you coming. Yes. Good morning. Hello, Leroy. Hi. Realize this is a little unusual. But being Saturday morning, I thought it might be a good time to discuss Leroy's school problem. Does Leroy have a school problem? Doesn't he? You know what I mean? You go ahead, Leroy. Tell Ms. Tuttle about your problem. Well, gosh, I was not pretty good. Your work has been more than satisfactory, Leroy. Nice. You will. Glad to hear that. Of course. But... If you have a problem, it isn't in school. Your homework has improved tremendously. Yeah? You will. Oh, you mean you're no longer helping him? Do you mind running along? I don't know. Goodbye, Frog Morton. No, Grace. Let's be sensible about this. Let's talk this over. I have nothing to do with a man who makes dates with two girls on the same night and doesn't keep either one of them. Grace, that'll never happen again. You're so right. I'll give anything to get things straightened out. Obviously, bringing your nephew over on such a silly pretext. All right. I'll admit I came over here to mend fences. Fine. I'll give you something to start on. Well... I'll give you the gate. I'm in trouble making up with Lela and Grace. You don't care. You mind sending me to your box of candy? Honestly, you seem to have a lot of lady troubles. Well, as Leroy said this morning, a man's better off married than being a badgered bachelor like me. I don't know. You take your own case. You and Mrs. Peavey have been married over 40 years. You know a man's happier with a wife. No, I wouldn't say that. It all depends on who you marry. Mrs. Peavey and I have been very happy through the years. I'm sure you have. Yes, you might not be as lucky in marriage as Mrs. Peavey was. I'll bet you don't tell her she's lucky. No, that's why we're so happy you're married. Yes, yes. Say, isn't that Clarence Olson parking out in front? I believe he did. Remember when he used his teal all your girlfriend? Yeah, I can see that in there. I think she's quite an operator. Hello, Mr. Peavey. Hello, Dr. Olson. And Gilder Sleeve. Well, who do you know? Clarence Olson. I haven't seen you for some time. No, our paths haven't crossed since we both were dating that cute little nurse. As I recall, they used to cross quite often. Yes, indeed. Oh, Mr. Peavey, do you mind putting this poster in your window? Poster? The Summerfield Symphony is giving a concert for the heart fund. Oh, I'd be happy to, Dr. Well, thank you. How about you, Gilder Sleeve? Would you like to buy a couple of tickets? Five dollars. Oh, you bet. Here. I know you. You don't want to take some girl. Well, I'll be glad to help the heart fund. But I don't have a girl. Oh, now, Gilder Sleeve. Do I, Peavey? Not at the moment. Mr. Gilder Sleeve just had two girls walk out on him. Really? Mr. Peavey, give us a coke. I want to hear the sad story. Gilder Sleeve, you never quite learned how to handle women, did you? I'll see you here, Clarence. I know what I'm doing. Unfortunately, I just happened to make dates with both girls for the same night, that's all. You know, I've apologized many times. Over the phone and at the front door. I sent them flowers and I came in here to buy them some candy. That's right. Let's not forget that. Gilder Sleeve, you're going at this all wrong. What? Look, since we're no longer rivals, I don't mind giving you a few pointers. And you need them. I do not. Do I, Peavey? I'd listen to the manly together. You're too obvious. You wear your heart and your sleeve. Yeah, and both sleeves. Yes, yes. Instead of showering a girl with presence and attention, play hard to get. Oh? Now, be independent. Pretend you don't care if you'd never go out with them. That works, huh? Can't miss. The more indifferent you are, the more intrigued they are. Well, I'm not getting anywhere now. Gilder Sleeve, next time you see one of your girls, follow my advice. You'll thank me for the rest of your life. Careful, Mr. Say, gentlemen, here comes one of the girls now. Yeah, it's Leela. Hey, she's one of your girls? You bet. It's nice to see you. I'll be indifferent. Oh, yes. Hello. Well, hello, Mrs. Ransom. Hello, Mr. Peavey.  What can I do for you? Well, I just want some stamps out of the machine here. Very well. What's that poster advertising, Mr. Peavey? It's about this infinite concert. Dr. Olson here brought it in. And you're missing Gilder Sleeve. Aren't you going to introduce me, Gilder Sleeve? Well, Mrs. Ransom, I present Dr. Clarence Olson. How do you do, Dr. Olson? How do you do? I didn't know we had a Dr. Olson in town. He's an intern at the hospital. Oh, well, it's very nice of you doctors to take the time to help promote the concert. Oh, I'm happy to do it. Are you going to the concert, Leela? Well, you know, I adore symphony, Throckmorton. And my phone has been ringing all morning. I suppose somebody has been calling to extend an invitation. Well, you know, I'd be delighted. Gilder Sleeve. What were you about to say, Throckmorton? Hey, I said I'd be delighted to take you. Oh? But I'm quite busy and afraid I won't be able to. Some other time, perhaps. Wow. That's the idea. I bought a couple of tickets. But, PV, why don't you and I go to the wrestling matches? Can we get in with symphony tickets? What's wrong with a couple of men going to the wrestling matches? I was just about to give you another chance, Throckmorton, and let you take me to the symphony. But you've burned your bridges. Oh, wait a minute. Mrs. Ransom, I hate to see a music lover disappointed. Oh? Since our mutual friend prefers wrestling, may I invite you to be my guest at the concert? I have two of the best seats in the house. But, Dr. Ocean, I accept your invitation. Good, good. May I see you at your car? Oh, you certainly may. Goodbye, Mr. PV. Goodbye, Mrs. Ransom. But, Leela, what about that, PV? He's just helping you play hard to get. What a sneaky way to help. Great Gilder Sleeve will return in just a moment.

Neither Lila Ransom nor Grace Tuttle has been speaking to the water commissioner, so he decided to take the advice of his old rival, Dr. Olson, and play hard to get. Result, Dr. Olson got Lila. That pushy intern tricked me, Bertie. Yeah? Lila was just about to forgive me and let me take her to the concert. And he took her right from under my nose. Yeah. Be indifferent, he says. Pretend you don't care, he says. Yeah, I should have known better than to take advice from a rival. Yes. You still don't have a girlfriend, huh? Lila got upset all over again. No, I'm really in the doghouse. Woo!  Woo! He's not sure. He doesn't every time you say dog. Woo! See? Oh, my goodness. Miss Gilda Sleeve, I've got an idea. Miss Tuttle might go out with you for something really important. What's this, Bertie? Well, since you bought two tickets to the symphony, you might try her. Well, I'd like to take Grace, and it'll also show Lila. Miss Tuttle won't even talk to you. She slammed the door in your face. Miss Gilda Sleeve, you might try flipping the tickets under the door with a string tied to him. Please, Bertie.  You're hardly really. Well, you can disguise yourself as a vacuum cleaner salesman.  I wouldn't stoop to disguising myself. I can't disguise myself. I just brought the vacuum cleaner. It might help me get my foot in the door. Then I can ask Grace to go to the symphony. Yes? Is the lady of the house in? Now, see here, Throckmo. I'm demonstrating the Jiffy Dandy vacuum cleaner. And before you say you don't need a vacuum cleaner, allow me to throw a sack of dirt on your floor.  Don't worry, lady. Just read these testimonials. Here's what this housewife from Duluc says about Jiffy Dandy. Get your foot out of the door. Please, Lady, I'm working my way through college and I'm a little late. Throckmorton, I can't stay angry at you. Come in, college boy. I think I've graduated. These are wonderful feet, Throckmorton. I like to be close enough to watch the guy bang the cymbals. And we're so fortunate having a symphony orchestra in Summerfield. They're not getting off to a very even start. They're tuning up, Throckmorton. Oh, yes. Thought I'd make a little joke. Isn't it funny how things work out? This morning I had no idea I'd be attending a concert with you tonight. Well, I'm glad I came over with my vacuum cleaner. Are you sure you didn't try to sell it to some other girl? I suppose you mean Lila. Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up. I'm not dating Lila these days. As a matter of fact, she's going with someone else. Well, I suppose a girl of her type always manages to corral some unsuspecting male. No, Grace. This happens to be a young doctor in town. She probably had an appendectomy just to meet him. I won't be surprised if they show up at the concert tonight. Well, you seem to know a lot about it. Me? Are you just chatting or regretting? Grace, I'm not regretting. I'm very happy about the whole thing. You know, I've learned my lesson. Two girls on your hands at the same time spell nothing but trouble. Here comes double trouble. Well, it's Lila. They're sitting next to us. Hello, Lila. Schrockmorton, is this what you call going to the wrestling matches? Well, good evening, Gilda Sleeves. Hello. Dr. Olson, I don't believe you've met Schrockmorton's little school teacher friend. No, I haven't had the pleasure. Yeah, excuse me. Hey, Miss Tuttle, this is Dr. Olson, hospital intern. How do you do, Miss Tuttle? How do you do? I see you have a date, Gilda Sleeves.  Oh, she's sweet.  Next to Schrockmorton? The doctor tried to sit there. She'd break his arm. I declare these seats are so close together. Can you get all that dress in the seat? Schrockmorton. Yes, Grace? You didn't have anything to do with this cozy arrangement, I hope. You don't know. I had no idea. I'm with you. This is just an unfortunate situation. Then stop smiling. Well, we're just in time. I hope they don't dim the lights before everybody sees my dress. They can't miss it. It looks like a neon sign. Grace, she'll hear you. I did. We must make quite a combination, dear, with your green eyes and handed hair. Lila. Congratulations to the hospital, Dr. Clarence Olson, please. Oh, that's you, Clarence. Yes, I'm afraid I'll have to leave.  Well, there's no reason for you to miss the concert. Schrockmorton. Yes? You and Miss Tuttle will see that Lila gets home, won't you? You're welcome. That's nice of you, too. Of course, I've always felt two's company and three's a crowd. I've never felt more crowded. Schrockmorton, it was the most enjoyable concert. Glad you liked it, Grace. Wasn't it, though? Of course, I had no idea the evening would end up a threesome. Neither did I. My George, this is great. I've got both girls back. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't taken me under your wing, Schrockmorton. Well, Grace and I were glad to help. Yes, I believe everyone should cooperate in an emergency. Grace, ever since I've known Schrockmorton, which is much longer than you, he has always come to my rescue like a knight in shining armor.  Shall we stop someplace for a soda or a hot chocolate, girl? Schrockmorton, I have to get up early in the morning. Don't you think we should drive Leela home? Well... Grace, if you have to get up early, why drive me home and come all the way back? Already, Grace. Schrockmorton, we're almost at Grace's now. Why don't we drop off? After all, you and I live so close together. Perhaps you should drop me off, Schrockmorton, since you and Leela are so close. Well, Grace, if you think I should. It isn't that I think you should. I was just wondering if you would. God, Grace, this is our date. This was our date. Okay, I'll drop you off. You're not dropping me. I'm dropping you. There goes one girl. A little while before I go in. Leela, I think it's been a long evening for all of us. I think it was Leela. Well, you weren't very nice to Grace. Perfectly pushing her out of the car. After all, I had the date with her, you know. Oh, you were going to ask me first, you know. Weren't you, Schrockmorton? Hope it is my heart skips a beat when I see you with another woman. Oh, Leela, let's face it. You weren't even speaking to me when I phoned the other morning. But Leela's in a more receptive mood at night. Leela, you changed with the winds. You went to the symphony with Dr. Olson and came home with me. You seemed perfectly happy with either one of us. Well, I'm happy now. Yes, yes. And a little sad too. Oh? That I've made you unhappy. Isn't that I'm unhappy? Then you do like Leela a teeny weeny did?  How much? If you say a bushel, I might give you a pay.  Then here's your pay. Don't bump the back of our car. I didn't care about my girl until I got back. Tomorrow's the day to buy Kraft's wonderful new parquet margarine, the margarine that spreads smoothly even when ice cold. You'll enjoy parquet's fresh appetizing taste and you'll also enjoy the opportunity to build a glamorous hosiery wardrobe at half price. In every package of parquet margarine are full instructions for getting famous powers model nylon stockings for just 75 cents in a parquet package end flap. Remember Kraft's delicious new parquet when you shop tomorrow. Would you like a ride home, Leela? Nobody is further from my mind than Miss Tuttle. Yeah, outside our classroom window. Oh, well. How you doing, Mrs. Lansom? Great. I may drop by after I take you home. Sweet. You met Dr. Olson parked up ahead? Yeah. Where is he sitting there? Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to drive up behind him and give him a bump. Yeah?  Yeah. He bumped me last night. Now it's my turn. Yeah, I'm going to push him halfway down the block. Partially transcribed.

Okay, Bolo Buddies, we are at the Goodwill Benz, which is the outlet store. Wait until you see the treasures I find. I meet up here with Dad Planet and we have a collaboration video for you and I'll tell you more about that after my trailer. Hey, Bolo Buddies, thanks for watching. Amazing, right? All right, let's get started. Okay, so it starts off a little slow. I don't find a whole lot in the beginning. I cut out a lot of footage. I am gonna do the full footage video over on my sourcing with Bolo Buddies channel. So stay tuned for that. I'll probably release it in a day or two, but here's what's gonna happen. I met Dad Planet and if you don't know Dad Planet, make sure you go and subscribe to his channel. I met him up here at the Goodwill Benz for a challenge. This is a challenge video. So what you guys need to do, everyone that is watching, I need you to watch my video and then I need you to go and watch his video and I'm gonna link it down in the description. You guys are gonna decide who found the best items. Then you're gonna come over to my community page and you are going to vote. And we'll talk more about that after I tell you about this Lisa Frank. So I saw this folder and if you guys can find the vintage Lisa Frank, it can be a big money Bolo. Even the folders can do well as seen. Okay, so back to the challenge. You're gonna go over to my community page and vote by Friday.  This is a friendly challenge.  So just a way to get the audience involved and have a little fun. So make sure you go and vote. Make sure you check out his channel. Make sure you subscribe to him. He has an awesome channel. He does a lot of what solds, but he also has videos like this. So this is a really, really fun item right here, but it weighed so much. It probably, I think our Goodwill bins is $1.79 a pound. So this was probably four to six pounds, I'm guessing. It was super heavy. So I put it in my cart, I decided to put it back. What I did is I came to the bins and then I left and I came back. I went next door to the Goodwill store. There's a retail store right next door. And when I came back, that is when I found some really cool stuff. But before I leave to go over, I find one item. It is the weirdest item I have ever found and I had to buy it. I think it's gonna be a Bolo. You guys are gonna have to let me know what you think. It's definitely a fun item. That's all the hints you get. All right, stay tuned, it's coming soon. So whenever I see little bags of things, I definitely turn them over, look, and I have found good stuff inside those little bags. Sometimes I find bags with toys in them. Sometimes there's ornaments. A video coming soon. I just need to do the edits. I found a crafter's lot, which is pretty interesting. So make sure you're subscribed to my channel. If you're new here, I would appreciate it. I've got some great footage coming soon. These are McDonald's plates. Now these are two of my solds from a past sales on Mercari. And they are Hercules McDonald's plates. If you guys do not know about those, they are definitely a Bolo. Here it is, you guys. What do you think? I was like, should I get this? Will I get this? I'm going to definitely get this. So this rode around in my cart and everybody was probably like, why is she getting that? But I love it. I think it's going to sell. I think it's a fun, unique item. It is called Footstool Unlimited, is what it says on the bottom. A footstool with a personality. And I was only able to find one comparable on it and it was on worth point. And I'm not sure if it was the same brand. So I will pop that up. Could not find anything on eBay. I don't know what I'm doing wrong if I'm typing in the wrong keywords or what, but nothing. And I would think that an item like that would be easy to find. So it must not have been mass produced. There must not have been a lot of them made. The cool thing is you can put whatever socks and shoes on that that you want. So I'm going to do a 10 day auction on that and just see if it gets some bids. I am going to start it at what I would like to at least get out of it. If it goes higher, great. If not, I'll be happy with that sale price. If it does not sell, I will relist it out of buy it now price or best offer. Now it did have the foam on the top was showing it does need a cover. Somebody needs to refinish the top of it, which is no big deal. Some people might want to do that themselves anyway. But the condition overall was pretty, pretty great. Not sure the age on it, but pretty sure it's vintage. That was my weirdest find. Now, like I said, I go next door to the thrift store and I come back and that is when I find a whole bin of stuff that everybody has already gone through. Everybody left it behind. Nobody's digging in this bin and I am scooping up the treasures. So that will be coming here shortly. Right now I'm just digging through a bunch of stuff. Sometimes I pick up those pets. I have another channel. It's called reseller testing volo products. And I like to pick up animated things and show those on that channel. I also do live shows over there where I do working hangouts. And if you guys like to go to working hangouts, definitely check out that channel also. It's linked down in the description. I basically just list and I pull up a screen share as I list. So if you're new to eBay and you're kind of learning or wanting to learn how to list, I can show you how to do that over there. So check out that channel. And then my other channel is sourcing with volo buddies. That is where I'm gonna do the unedited, uncut footage of this trip because I had 45 minutes of footage and I trimmed it down. So that'll be coming here in the near future. So subscribe to that channel also.  They were from a library. So I'm guessing maybe a library closed or I don't know. I mean, there were so many. I did not get any of those. Should I have? Does anybody sell audiobooks that they've picked up from libraries? How do they do? What's your opinion on that? I think this was for cigars. I ended up leaving that behind. I put it in my card. I kind of looked at it for a minute and decided that I wasn't gonna get it. All right, there's lots of like, I think precious moments dolls in this bin. I did not get those, but I did see a lady with those in her cart. All right, so at this point in time, dad planet was not there. So what happened was I was at the bins and somebody saw me recording and she asked me if I had a channel and I told her yes. And I proceeded to ask her who she watched.  And she's like, yeah, that's who it is. This right here is Paul Patrol. Definitely picked that up. It takes batteries and it moves. It's a great item. Anyway, so I said, oh, I know him. And I sent him a message and I was like, hey, I just saw one of your viewers at the bins. And he's like, I was thinking about going there today. And I'm like, well, I'm here. You should meet me over here and we'll do a collab video. So he was out doing his thing and I went off to another thrift store and then we met back up here to do our bins challenge. So that's what we decided to do is we are gonna, here it is, you guys, look at all of these. I dug in this bin for probably 20 minutes, pulling out every single one of these little Tykes vintage blocks. They're interlocking waffle blocks. And I felt like I remembered having them in one of my videos before. That little bag was a plastic grocery store bag and it had the Duplo Legos in it. So I went ahead and grabbed that as well. But these little Tykes, oh my goodness, there were so many and they were spread out among two bins. So I dug and dug and dug all of them out. Probably people were looking at me like I was crazy. There's also these little peek-a-boo blocks and I'm gonna pop up my listings for those as well. Those do really good. I always pick them up when I see them at garage sales. I was really excited to see them still sitting in the bin. Again, these bins were completely picked over and this one sold in less than 24 hours. I probably underpriced it a little bit because it sold so quickly. Here's the other lot that I have listed. It is a bigger lot of 22 and the little Tykes, I'm gonna show you that listing here soon. Now, what I did with the little Tykes and I learned this tip from the Rebel reseller. She said one time she picked up a bunch of blocks, wood blocks and she asked the manager if they could work with her on the price because they were so heavy and they were a set. So I did the same thing. I asked for the manager and she came over and she told me that I could have all of the little Tykes blocks for $5. So I filled my cart with these. Now, it was kind of a pain. I had to lay them all out and interlock them for a photograph for the listing and I had them outside in my driveway and it started raining.  So you can just see me digging, digging, digging for all of these little Tykes and peek-a-boo blocks. There's some magnets in there that I'll probably hang onto and lot those up eventually. I like to pick up smalls and hang onto them and make lots of toys that I really like toys. That's one thing you'll see a lot on my channel. I really like vintage Christmas. Here they are. Look at all of these. I think there was 134 total. I picked up this little Wizard of Oz. It's vintage, so it didn't end up comping out very high but it's a new old stock vintage item and I love vintage toys. So went ahead and grabbed that. Still digging these out. I do find some more stuff so I'm gonna pull up comps as I find them. I'm sorry, not comps, my listings. They are actually my eBay listings. So all of these items are available in my store. My store is linked in the description if you would like to check out what else I'm selling. I am a full-time reseller. I have been selling on eBay since 2005.  Super cute item. I have sold something similar to that before it wasn't a diaper bag but it was the same print. It was more of like a sleeping bag and it sold pretty quickly. So I'm hoping that will sell quickly also.  All right. This I thought about getting. They were like interlocking toys. I'm not sure what they're called but there were a whole bunch of them and I think they were vintage but I tried using Google lens while I was there and I couldn't pull up the same thing, the same exact thing and none of them were marked.  Maybe I should have. You'll see a whole bunch of them in the bin. I left those behind. Would you have guys have picked those up? Let me know in the comments. And I did get some footage of Dad Planet so stay tuned for that. That is coming soon. This is still before he got there. So this little Wizard of Oz cowardly lion, it's from 1987. It's just a little mini figure. They can be used as cake toppers or just little toys for kids but because it was vintage I went ahead and picked that up. This I almost grabbed, just have notebook paper. I do a lot of things with my YouTube channel where I have to write stuff down. So I could have used it for that but I decided to leave it behind. So what do you guys think about the blocks? The waffle blocks, the 134 of them that I picked up. Would you have picked them up or would you have left them behind? All right, this little spinny thing here, that is from a Lego set. That is a Paw Patrol replacement. Is it an ATV? Like a four-wheeler for one of the characters. I always pick up those little things. They're bread and butter but that bread and butter will all add up. I don't know what that was. I did leave all the duplos. You can see them in the bin. I usually don't mess with them unless they're like the cars, the vehicles, things with wheels, the mini figures. I'll do some of those. I was at this point just throwing things. That was the other little Lego. It was a double swing and I believe they go to a Dora the Explorer set. It's in my listing, but it was two pieces. So I went ahead and put those together. As you saw earlier, I popped up the screenshot of my listing. All right, here's my cart.  So again, this ended up being a lot of work but I did find like the perfect box to hold all of it. I almost got that little guy, but he was under $10. So I went ahead and just threw him back. I have so much inventory at my house that I need to list. Just loads of it in my garage, in my basement. I'm currently working on getting items from my garage listed so that I'm ready for garage sale season. So this is the book section. And as I'm looking through the books, I see this bag. And it is a bag of Legos. And I'm really excited about this. I enjoy selling Legos. Sometimes I part them out and sell the mini figures separately. But when I got home, I pulled the mini figures out and I believe it's a Harry Potter set. And those were the mini figures that were in there. So I'm gonna try to figure out which Lego set it is and decide if I want to part out the mini figures or if I want to try to sell it as a set. If I can figure out what the set is and look up online the instructions, first I'll comp it and see if it's worth trying to put it together. And if it's $50 or more, I'll take the time to probably put it together. If not, I'm just gonna sell the mini figures separately. So I'm over here in the hats and the backpacks and that type of thing. I'll do those types of things periodically. I try to stay away from clothes anymore. I used to do only retail arbitrage clothing when I first started. Okay, you guys, here's Dad Planet. I just pointed this out and he told me to grab it. So I think I'm gonna grab it. It is gross. You should have on a glove. Okay, so you couldn't really hear what he said.  But anyway, those are the gloves that I just picked up on eBay and I picked them up because they are different colors and I thought it would be fun to switch up my gloves and I actually switched them up three times during this video. I wore the pink, the purple, and I can't remember, maybe the green. This is a patat, I'm sorry, let me say that again, a patat, I can't say it, patat, patat doll. What I was looking for was to make sure it was an American girl. American girl can do pretty good. But patat does not do as well and correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe I just haven't researched it enough. Sometimes I'll pick up the little pets that go with them but I haven't sold any dolls before. All right, tell me in the comments, do you guys wear gloves when you go to the bends? All right, check this out. Is this leather or is this pleather? What is this suede? What is this? Should I have bought it? I was looking at it and then somebody came over and was like getting really close so I just kind of backed up and left it there but I'm wondering if I should have picked it up. I did grab that because I had the ones that were in the bag so I ended up just making a lot out of them. So let me know in the comments about that leather or pleather or whatever it is. I know a lot of people buy fabric and there he is, he's in my space, he's grabbing it so I'm like, I'm out. Everybody is like, they just get in your space. All right, I picked up this little chimpanzee which is adorable. It's got the little baby on the back. I love selling toys like that, small toys. I did pick this one up but I'm wondering if it's broken so I haven't listed that one yet. I may just throw it in a toy lot. This my little pony had decent comps but this was not in great condition. I really would have had to have scrubbed it down and I didn't want to do that. So I ended up putting that back in the bin. All right, you guys go over and watch Dad Planet's video. I'll link it below. After you have watched both videos decide who you think had the best haul and come over to my community page on my YouTube channel and there will be a post where you can vote. And again, please do that by Friday and the winner is going to get a thrifted prize from the loser. And links to other things are down in the description so check all of those out. Check out my reseller testing BOLO Products channel and my sourcing with BOLO Buddies channel.  And if you're new here from Dad Planet's channel thank you for being here. I appreciate you watching. I hope that you enjoyed the video and that you will subscribe. And we're gonna look through a little more stuff but I think I've covered everything for the collab and I will do an update video on who won. It'll be probably, yeah, it'll be on this channel. And I'm not sure if Dad Planet will do that or not so just subscribe to us both and watch for updates. If you hit the bell that will alert you when we post new videos. All right, you guys. Tell me what your favorite thing that I got was. Put it down in the comments. Favorite item. I'm kind of, I don't know. This was just a weird haul for me. I spent like a good 20 minutes finding nothing at the beginning. And then I started finding some just weird stuff. So the complete entire footage will be over on my sourcing with BOLO Buddies channel later this week. So definitely stay tuned for that. I'm not gonna do any edits. I'm not gonna talk. I'm just gonna show the footage. So it will just be, if you like to watch people dig through the bends, nothing fancy. All right, you guys, thanks so much for watching.
