You were telling us before we went on that you live in Queens, and you know that you are finding very interesting how on during the Shabbat for a lot of the Jewish folks that are there, the how they, you know, go about their thing. And you know, what really struck me is the use, as you were saying that earlier, was I took a trip over to Israel. And I remember going into the elevator, they actually had two elevators at the hotel, one elevator stop at every floor and one elevator, the doors were open, and it would like you couldn’t press any of the buttons. It would just automatically go to the floors so that folks that were observing the Shabbat didn’t have to press the buttons.

Wow, wow, I admire that discipline. I try to be honest with you. I tried for a one single day, I couldn’t last more than like, three, four hours actually on my phone. I was like how Shane? Why am I actually thinking about what’s wrong with me. But they’ve been doing years and years of discipline like that our garden? Yeah, it’s a one day I’m gonna one day challenge that I accept the challenge to complete it for sure.
