His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me, said, fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. Tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free. the free. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught. You read about the current use in a regulated crest. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You paid for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children, even fear, to slay? Both sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and eat God's given right. As I awoke, he vanished in the midst of the once again. His words were true. We are not free. And there you go! Good morning! And your port time, our currency? Joe McNeil. Find territories west, central, east. Network in the morning. World's One Liberty 3 radio, not4mg.com. Indiana Freedom Talk Radio dot com. We're on AM&FM micro stations, CBH stations, east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. We're from the top of the mean to the bottom of Florida, from the bottom of Florida across the arctic Gulf of Mexico, headed Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, big china, Alaska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both the 3rd, the 5th, and our friends in the Recall State efforts. We turn back to the east with a sun on our eyes. this morning. Wooo! Yeah, even though it's right there a season of sunshine. Sweep across that, talking about Mississippi. You notice that? It's amazing how it just differs from the news, even though whenever you read it, there's nothing happening and it's just not there. Anyway, it's just, even though it's the biggest stinking river we got on the continent. Anyway, you know, the Smokies, where the restaurant crew's grammar team's okay teams and the Moundville Grammar Consortium bringing us the gold. Look how it is. It's just a nature cat, all up in the field, not many, but they're out there. Last night, you could see forever. Even with the moon, there on the horizon peeking over Lake Erie like in your neck of the woods what's the date today and what is jumping off the wall up on the rock well I do believe it is December 11 2014 and presently we got about 45 degrees here at the studio and partly cloudy and the mosquitoes have been tricked around flying around so I'm not sure what's up with that really Standing outside yesterday and look here's a mosquito Mosquitoes have escaped from their hibernation that interesting must be a winter version or something You know, you know, it's funny about that though now if you were in Michigan here and you go into the bogs where I am actually to my Washtenaw aquifer, you know, it's an underground aquifer Swamp who's from the top of the country is like that here in Michigan and kick up mosquitoes in the middle of the winter I'm into the into the cover, you know what I mean? There's a lot of mosquitoes out there that have decided what last jam must be made. Because remember they use your blood breeding process. Look, here's Mark. Go get him. Yeah. Actually, you know, I gotta say something. This is weird. It could be that we're getting hit with a, you know, a creation beam of the myself. Horrible. I'm talking one field, one farm field, the main houses here. There's a right behind us. And it kind of does a C around the back seat, which makes for a nice perimeter for control. because nobody can stomp through their luggage and stuff. That's why somebody might have done it really until laid down around 1812. There's a bed right here. Why? This is not them. They kill with tennis racquets. Everybody around here knows that. Well, I think Minnesota State Bird is a mosquito. Yeah, and across mosquito wings and sabers, right? You know, that was something, you're talking about mosquitoes the first time I came out here to Kamiye, Idaho. Of course, you know, when you're looking for property, and there were times I was, you know, checking out the land and going from one property state to the other, you know. And one of the things I noticed, it didn't take me 20 minutes, I turned to a friend of mine, Lloyd, that was with me. I said, you know, man, I don't see any mosquitoes or bugs or anything, you know, what's, you know, because we're chomping through the bush trying to find a pen. And he said, yeah, I didn't notice that, but now that you mentioned it, yeah, we're getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. So this is, you know, we have mosquitoes out here, but nothing like what you're talking about or Minnesota. Like I said, Minnesota, I think the mosquito is a state bird. It's almost lakes. They're just so wonderful breeding grounds. Yeah, exactly. Michigan was known as the land of the mosquito and I'm sure that that was really the land of the Minnesota. The territory was like mass. beyond what Texas is today and then they kind of re-sculpt. If they had their way to Michigan, well, the gloves, see on the map, constant, and when you think about, what do you use history for? Well, when somebody references something, they might be lying to you, or they might know that they're lying about something, but they're using semantics and they're using histories. They know geography and they know history and you don't. You think immediately the state of Michigan isn't the case. It was funny because in the fun one, The Upper Peninsula is part of Michigan. It was part of Ohio when they started cutting. Now think about that. You all know we're in Ohio. Michigan, it was part of Ohio. And the Upper Peninsula, around the country, that their bench, in terms of their lay lines, important that most of you probably don't know this, but militia are down on the border. It wasn't where the border is. Now, after the war started, and we mobilized everybody, and they mobilized everybody because they wanted to lead the other, it was made by the Poobas while we were shooting at each other. We were just shooting a little bit at each other to change the line. Trade out was, we got the Upper Peninsula. Now, the cool thing is, guys, the Upper Peninsula, the Upper Peninsula, we don't think we traded out to back to Detroit. And again, it's part of the thing about they won't teach you in school, and if they do, it's the other. And the glorious communist revolt in Cuba and in Russia, they all kind of. well cuba's kind of hanging out by a toenail but today the uh... she was in power really funny because uh... we're we're of course still are that second american revolution we fought against the fight rather at it again transfer the three with the uh... international scam from the u.n. to try and carve the trip here and if you pay attention or taken on the time to the u.n. uh... for the united states i'd something through and i've tried to keep everybody deflected will go on in many categories uh... which is on a phone twenty-four No, let's call it what it can murder more people. What do you think the chances are of the now standing force? Well, we'll call it police force joining with the UN in their endeavors to obtain the pistols. Well, let's see in their classes They're told what these other cops you you you're you're just an American taxpayer Which is like a dirty word for them because they laugh at you because we've been over backwards and let it beat us down the way with murdering over to a whole bunch of other foreign coups. Now let's think about this. We've already had California cops go beat her down head first. They were never to the ground because they were FEMA police, Department of Homeland Security, regional police, which is what they were in California, another country, so they could go beat up on people that they don't know. Russia, and this is what the whole idea behind the UN is. Well, we can enforce this because we'll get these guys over here who are mass murderers in Tibet. We'll bring them over to people in Michigan. They don't know you. Can't even speak your language. Careless about you. Now, well, you'll be prattling about international love and pillaging. Just lay over back, like, you know, the other thing that you'll notice is the fake Demikin, the fake scam right now, the big gap is about the release of the torture papers. Joe, have you read any of the stuff on that? No, I haven't. It's important to bring this up because they're all trying to do the Demikin-republicat thing and Feinstein, she did the Feinstein, she did the... Wait a minute, wait a minute, back up here. You did something and you were not proud of it. What's the problem here? I mean, everybody, we want the innuendo. You know, here's the thing. You know, if they get you, they could torture you. But we can't prove that. On the other hand, it's, uh, yeah, you know, Americans, they're low. They get hold of you, they're gonna torture you. So what's the problem? Trying to maintain a facade. We all know. How many people, uh, Job? I mean, this is not like ancient history. Didn't we have those Abu Ghraib hearing things where it came out that, and everybody's been doing all, but purely to terrify you? Surely to terrify the American people. Oh my go- Who thought this up? Well, it turns out one of the reasons they didn't want a lot of this stuff out. All of this came from the Israelis. Do you remember what I said from the beginning on this? All this torture crap. Even there, even the lawyers, the shyster huckster lawyers said, the whole process of this torture scam came from that the Israeli Supreme Court, don't you know? Because if you have the Israeli Supreme Court, they're much superior to all of us American courty thingies. Did you know that? I didn't know that. I can't find that anywhere. I can't find Israeli jurisprudence as a viable constitution with regard to foreign... and this gets right back to the whole thing. I have several references though to the Constitution where they discuss or are warning you about the activities of foreigners in inside your government and why you keep them out? Law thingy. See how that works? Remember, we're not supposed to have a foreigner as president. We were supposed to have an American born, native born American because anybody was naturalized. Country, another culture, another area. See how that works? When you start violating all these, well, let's see, those are those strange and crazy guidelines for maintaining sovereignty of a country. And then he got the dunderheads that are the characters going, well dude, the OP's love dope, and man, no countries, no borders, man. And there's even people in the Patriot movement who come up with that garbage over the years and it's like, really? So how do you have a country? Like, make it work. Why would it be located if it didn't have a description? Right, exactly. How does all your paper work? I have a right! What right? And if we go by, see here's the problem, we're gonna have democracy. Guys, the limited republic of the United States, the limited constitutional republic, is a minority. International? Well, why should your American paranormal be allowed to opt? We have street- Oh, I'm sorry, I mean our new monarch. Oh, I mean our new commissar. Oh, oh yeah, you see, all the limited constitutional republic of the United States, we're a minority. And like everybody else tried to mimic us to a degree, especially the lists are a desperate distill- the monarchies up and the garbage up which is the state you know BS along with us there's no borders and everybody's just the same and oh just we gotta do it everybody if everybody votes not really so what's the culture what's the background what is the what are the societies that you're dealing with here it's not just not doesn't worry about race I mean there are other people who are white ideas that are totally alien because they've never lived actually notorious for their hell their pay white come on Muslims! Okay, talk if you live under fool. The whole invasion of southern Europe was about stupid. There are the people that stop Muslims, people that have the other Arabs and whatever. Turns out Yugoslavia, you know that country we betrayed and that the Israelis wanted everybody to chop up? What's their fame? It's kind of like also Romania with Vladimir tips, you know, what was his real fame? Why was he defamed and given all these? He's famous for one thing. Vladimir tips was famous for stopping the Ottomans by shopping the Muslims in their tracks and he's the only one who and kept his Anyway, just think about that. Tooth and silver spike. Yeah, you know, long wooden stake. Oh yeah, okay. He was also known as, eventually the Ottomans decided, hey we're bad, but this guy is, he's worse. And that's what it takes. That's the thing. But don't try to candy coat this. That's what a big thing going back and forth, because you see Feinstein on her way out, and he said, everybody knows about it. That even more animals you're dealing with, The Republicans are doing this because the Republicans are coming in. Is anybody excited about the Republicans? What's the first thing the Republicans have done here now that they have a majority? These dinks that are all in charge. I'm now to the point where I don't even worry about their names. Like Boner, Booner, Binner, Bynner. He looks like a turd. He's just like Obama. I shut Obama off completely right from the beginning, guys. You know, if you know that you're doing it, all you have to do is put a hammer and sickle on that. Okay, we're done. Everything he's doing is back when he was BS. he's been coached. Why about him? So why bother? Well then you've got these republic rats now who've come in and what's the first thing they do? It's just like NAFTA and GAT. But a voter's in because we'll be different. Oh by the way, we're immediately signing on to the stuff with Obama and we're going to help Obama get stuff through before he leaves. There's no change then, right Joe? I look like a change to me. See what I mean? It's like, oh look, it was such a significance. Not a change at all. When they say We're changing this but they just change the name of it. There's a guy with a member of that member of the management and they give one of the backgrounds to where they started walking through on the old glass window. The guy scrapes a painter. He goes, let me, I've watched guys do this, but men with steadier hands and eye and I'm a draft. Watching the guy do that with a balloting, a stiffening stick and the brush and painting a guy's name on the glass window. And remember every, they were Well, that guy's gone and he'd be scraping his name off and they'd be painting the next one. And then the guy that was fired, burying him back and you see the guy that's the painter go. Grab some bottom marks. Yes, we are. Well, I'll tell you what, we're going to paint some other names in your mind here. We've got sponsors and we got a drawing coming up. Joe, can we get a touch on that? Can we come back? Here we are. For everybody out there, grab that cup of coffee smell. Now if you gotta get on the road, be patient with other people who are rather tedious in their driving because it's winter. You know what? If they're slowing you down, it just means you'll get there a minute or two later. By the way, nowadays they don't scrape the windows, they just change the doors, moving from one hallway to the other, because parasites never really leave.

I'm Joe McNeil here with Mark Corn Key and yes we do want to remind everybody we have a drawing on the 19th for a KU-VAN satellite receiver system. All you have to do to get in on the drawing is make a minimum five dollar contribution. Get your name in the hat five times a dollar per entry after that and no limit on how many entries you make. Okay and obviously the more entries you make the better chances you have of winning the drawing. Also, I was thinking yesterday after I got off the microphone, I don't get much time to talk about things that we're trying to do to raise funds for the micro effect. I need to talk, I don't know Andy if you're out there listening this morning. We got so much going on, Andy's got so many ideas that I'm getting lost in the shuffle here. But we do have four YAGI antennas. One of which I'm going to take and put with the, we did pull out the FM100 transmitter yesterday. Okay. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to do something totally separate with that. For those of you, if it means anything to you, this is the transmitter that actually started the whole micro effect existence. And We're going to have a drawing for that particular piece of equipment. So if you've been wanting to start a little low power station, put something up in your hood, well then here's your opportunity to win a transmitter. Okay. And I'll give you those details tomorrow morning on the program. So if you are on the program here with us tomorrow morning, you'll get the details on how to go about winning the FM100. transmitter with an antenna. Now, you know, I want to say something here because we did it many times here years ago. There's people out there, you know, other stations. I know there's other stations out there, rebroadcasting the micro effect. So what I would like to do is something that I haven't done in a long time because in the beginning, in the beginning, what we did as the National Association of Micro Broadcasters, that's what we call ourselves, I wanted to put up America. Can you get that? Dot com. The National Association of Micro-Broadcasters of America dot com. Wow! That has to be the longest dot com address there ever was. But, with keeping in touch with everybody, I've done it myself. If the stations out there that already exist, if you have an extra microphone, a little mixer board, something that could help our new winner, whoever wins the transmitter, maybe donate to that person something that you have laying around that would benefit that person in some way with their radio station. Anything at all. Whether it's on the cords, quarter inch jacks or any of that stuff. Adaptive cords, adapters. anything that you can think of. So I want you, for those of you who are out there that are involved in broadcasting, or maybe you just have something laying around that you used to use for another purpose. You know, like a little small mixture or something along those lines. Because what we would do is we kept kind of a little bit of a catalog of what everybody had, then in one case a gentleman got struck by lightning, kind of blew his little radio station apart. and so everybody donated, you know, a mixer, microphone, whatever he needed and he was back up and running within a week. So we'd like to recreate that atmosphere, I suppose. Or maybe if you're out at a yard sale or something and you see a little mixer or a microphone or maybe a cassette player or a CD player or something, it doesn't have to be anything fancy, of course. pick it up and let us know that you have it or you can call in and mention it on the air. Hey, I have one of these I'd be willing to donate to a low power station and just kind of pass the equipment along, if you will. Like I said, this is something we did in the past where we helped other stations get up on the air. So keep that in mind again as we go along. We're going to have the drawing for the FM100 transmitter and whoever gets that, I'm sure they're going to need a few things. So if you have something, call in and let us know what that is and we'll be happy to include that in the package. Maybe we can get one station up and running overnight. One of the things that would just upset me somewhat is, and we've had this happen too, and other times where we've had a drawing for a transmitter that we gave one or two away. They just ended up in somebody's closet. Yay, I won the transmitter and just stuck in the closet. I contacted them later on. Well, no, I haven't got that up yet. That would really be a slap in the face for the efforts that we make. So what I want to say is if you have no intentions of putting up little stations. I'm going to ask you, please don't even bother to enter the drawing, okay? Because we'd really like to see, I would like to see at least this particular transmitter up and running and doing what it did for the micro effect from the very beginning. Again, we have that drawing on the 19th. For the KU band satellite receiver system that's free to air doesn't cost any there's no monthly fees involved or any of those things and if you were the lucky soul that you managed to win both Well there you have your satellite system and your transmitter and by the way you you can get a KU band satellite system I don't have the information in front of me like I said, I need to talk to Andy here see what we got going on to You can purchase one outright, which people have done. Okay. What else do I have, man? Again, call 208-935094 and 350094. Just remind everybody out there, guys, if you have any questions or suggestions working on this project, expand on it. I was just perusing the micro FM transmitters. I can only take so much time because I got a divvy of going to be going back up and on the line as that are on thing right now that I just rebuilt for somebody only because there's a few things they didn't know about Wyoming. We mentioned the 13 sisters, guys. We've bought a bunch of DX machines. There's the FM100, the type that's in the drawing here, which by the way is a very fine machine. Nothing wrong with the FM100 just design at all. In fact, friendly in terms of maintenance because of the way the board is laid out, I'll just give you a little hint. What we're working on from the inside, it's a kit radio to begin with. It was designed to be friendly for assembly and maintenance. So it's not hard to do a, again, a diagnostic on the system. That's smaller boxes, I'm gonna point out. are crunched up in space, it's like how do they get all that circuitry into that little Star Trek communicator you've got on your belt? Newer systems have more microprocessors. So if something goes wrong with some of the systems, just like your handheld radios or your cell phones, it doesn't mean you can't rebuild it. You eventually will fix it, but you wait until you can find an affordable solution. Happens with a lot of electronic schools. The thing about standard state is that it's very user friendly. You know, 10 cents, 8 cents, you know, a resistor, a diode. So in the long run, the format or conventional format solid state, which you get like the FM100. Now the DX radios are crisscross because they've incorporated a few chips to do some of the work for synthesizing which are in even the other equipment here we're talking about the 100. The FM100 has some chips in it that were very unique when this model came out. The one programmable chip for the synthesizer circuit, a major leap in the digital digital for somebody who was trying to put a micro station up which is really cool. A lot of other guys came up with similar solution radios and were just in the radio circle. Ramsey also has an entire really cool, you got bench people and all they do they just plug and play. They don't have space off as one of theirs that they built so they they have everything built on the wall everything's on the bench comes in there is they open it up they plug everything in they look at it go hey you've got a problem with the transmission. Well you know, and folks, from what we're talking about, you're like the FM100, you plug RCAs in, it's just like a sound system. Yep, very simple. And you just go from, for example, you can buy an adapter cord that's a little 1 1 8 inch jack. that plugs into the sound card on your computer that splits it into two RCAs which plugs into the transmitter and then of course you just put your antenna up and away you go it converts your computer into an FM broadcast same thing with your satellite system you go from the satellite receiver you take the audio and feed it into the FM100 hooks up with the RCA's there's nothing that you don't have to struggle with any oh how am I going to figure this out I don't have a soldering iron I don't have anything like I say If you can hook up a DVD player, you can figure this stuff out. It's not that complicated. And then again, are your marks available? I'm available. We can help you over the phone. Put this together. You know, if you're technically challenged in some way, we can help you put that together. You know, right over the phone. Another thing we have here, and I'm not going to be part of it very many of them, on the website, I suggest what you do is you use a A limiter compressor. What does a limiter compressor do? Well, you'll find that if you put two different CDs in your CD player, okay, even in your car, I don't care where you are, just take two different CDs and they'll be recorded at different audio levels. So, you might put one in without touching the volume and it's real loud, you pull that one out and throw the other one in, it's real low. Okay, it all depends on who recorded it and what level. So what a limiter compressor does It has a gate and a threshold and all these things that compress. It brings it up from the bottom, squishes it down from the top, and when you listen to FM radio, they're using a limiter compressor so that that audio comes out at a consistent level all the time. So when you get in there, it isn't over-driving one thing, and then the other one you can't hardly hear it. A limiter compressor does all that for you. In the beginning of the microeffect broadcast, I've been using an Ultradine, if you want to look that up, it's an Ultradine 9024, you can find them on eBay. They came out of the 80s, mid 80s to early 90s, and you can't buy them at the store anymore. There's no such thing as a new Ultradine 9024. To replace this piece of equipment, if you were going to buy something similar to it, Your price range is going to start at right around five grand So when bearing or put out this programmable limiter compressor, man They kind of stepped on a lot of toes because this when it came out it was like 350 bucks somewhere around in there for one of these limiter compressors Now what you would do in a broadcast is you would go from? Your your source, okay, what is your satellite or your computer from that? to your board from your board to the limiter compressor and limiter compressor to your transmitter. And that compresses the signal to give it a good clean, steady, level, consistent signal. Okay? Now, if I have several of these, and here's what happened. When I bought the first 9.024, of course, like every other piece of equipment here in the office, it runs 24 hours a day. And after a while things do wear down. So I had one that gave up the ghost. So I pulled that one out and I found another one on eBay and I put that one in. Okay, ultimately that process took place seven times. So I have seven 902-4s. Well while that was all going on, I kept searching high and low and all over the country for somebody who knew how to repair these 902-4s because I didn't want to give it up. Finally one day I was stumbling around on eBay and I saw a guy that was selling some parts for the 9024 and I got him on the phone and we had this really nice long conversation where he explained to me he said well I love these 9024's he says that you know I figured out how to fix them and he said 70% of the time it's the power supply in the 9024 that gives up and that cost about well I'll tell you it cost me 20 bucks I called a friend of mine up here in, uh, up here in Wiston, who repairs amplifiers, you know, and mixers and all kinds of stuff. He has a guitar shop. And I asked him, I said, Kelly, I got these things, you know, this is what the guy told me, and I can show you right where it's at. He told me where it was at. So I took one up there, and I said, uh, if you can fix this, man, I got six more of these that you can work on. So he called me back two days later. He says, what else you got? He said, man, this thing fired right up. It works fine. So I took all the rest of them up there to Lewiston and he repaired every one of them. Every one of them fired right back. Every one of them was the power supply. But the beauty of it all is because of the new stuff. Of course, this stuff was the stuff from the 80s, right? The new stuff lasts longer and is more powerful and works great. So actually what ended up happening, we ended up upgrading all of the 9.024s in the power supplies. Okay? So if you have had trouble finding one or maybe you found one and maybe you're using one and it gives up the ghost, give me a call here. I know where to get it fixed or you know, I can part with one or two of the ones that I have here at the studio. Okay? So I'm just throwing that out there. Low power broadcasting folks and like I say mark I'll tell you it's not that difficult. There's thousands of them out there I know this first act I know this because of all the things we were involved in you know say back in 2002 2002 2005 somewhere in there and like I was explaining to somebody on the Phone you yesterday, you know, I just got to a point. I'm sure you can understand I was on the phone day after day after day on the air on the phone on the air on the phone and you know I just really did get kind of burned out on it but you know people are telling me it's time to do it again and so with that we're going to we're going to start talking about low-power broadcasting how to go about doing it and folks You know there's low-power broadcast there are some I don't even know if we can call them low-power broadcast They range everywhere from 1 watt to a thousand watts depending on where they are and there's some people that have two three of these things up and running and The way that it works. I'll tell you how it worked for me. Of course, we didn't have the microeffect broadcast network at that time But the way it worked for me was this for shows that I could get on the satellite which was a much easier thing to do when you have a satellite system, you know, you can just let it run 24 hours a day. When you're using a computer, it's a little bit different program. But you can use either or. And as time goes on, if you have something on CD or tape or something you want to play, all you do is plug that into your mixer board and then fire it up and play it on the air. So your objective would be, you know, if you have a computer, for example, Mark has mentioned it in the past, in the time of total collapse if you will, all things have gone to hell in a handbasket. For example, I have a portable hard drive with some 50 gigs of music and entertainment. Everything from opera music to country to rock and roll, all this on a separate hard drive. And all I have to do is plug that into a computer. and I can play music from now until hell freezes over because there's just that much. Your object at that time is to collect all the materials that you can collect because you're not going to be able to sit on the air and talk 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So you have to have the material to put on the air. And if there's nothing else available in the area that you are, maybe you're in Podunk, South Dakota or something along those lines, you'll be the only thing up and running. So there's lots of reasons to get involved in this and like I say we're going to have a drawing for an FM100 here on the Micro Effect. I'll give out all the information tomorrow. But right now don't forget the drawing that we're having on the 19th. That is for the KU-VAN satellite receiver system. $5 minimum contribution, get your name in half five times. $1 per entry after that and no limit on how many entries you make. We do still have some of these, we don't have a lot of them left. the paracord keychain with the P-38 hanging on there. That's a military can opener. You've seen them in your life at some time. You just flip the little wing open and get it on the edge of the can and you can open up a can. Keychain. And for a $10 minimum contribution, the reason I say $10 folks, it cost me $4.86 to ship it out. I put them in a little box and mail them out. So if you'd be kind enough to make a $10 contribution to the micro effect and our efforts here, I'll get one of those keychains. If we could donate electronically, just put a little note on there. $10 contribution for Paracord keychain. And be sure to include your shipping address and all that so we can get it out right away. Like I said, we've got so much going on here in the background. I tell you what, we're right up here at the top of the hour here, Mark.
