K: (cont.) who had asked it and he said it was you and I thought I said I thought
I
would call and tell you that. Then he called me back at Kay's and said make
sure Otis also know that I thought it was the most important question.
C: Did you here hear the by-play on the beach? I thought that was cute. He
