I just did.

A memoir slash novel Took me eight years to do wow with a friend of mine, Dana, bash on.

And, uh, it's a study of persona and the fallacy of the human being.

Okay, Yeah.

Sell that book.

Yeah, creates a persona and, uh, and, uh, is, uh, let down by it ultimately.

And you posted a picture off?

I don't.

This is is this the cover that it's going to have these things that are very interesting story behind this cover.

It's called memoirs and misinformation.

And what happened there was there was there was a missile alert in Hawaii a little while back, and, uh and I, uh, and I was in Hawaii, which is the thing where they texted everybody.

Well, it was the alarm on the television.

It was crazy.

And, uh, and, uh, my assistant, Linda, who lives on the other side of the island, called me crying and, uh, she called me crying and said, We have 10 minutes left, Chief.

And, uh, what should we do?

And was it?

No, the two minute mark.

We were down to two minutes down.

Was it a sense off relief, or was there a tiny bit of disappointment?
