  Speaker 1: You know, I'm really proud of one of our former interns, Dawson.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Remember you remember Dawson Dawson. He's been working with me
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: on some other projects. And on Saturday we did an
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: event at Ken Sanders Rare Books down in the basement
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: of the Leonardo Museum. And but this and Jimmy Santangel
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: is involved in it too, and it's called Literary Livations,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: but at any rate where they're setting up for it,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: and it involves talking about books and you have a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: little wine and some little snacks, and the audience buys tickets.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: And they weren't there yet about we expected about twenty
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: five or so, and they weren't there yet. And all
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, one of Ken's employees said, you know
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: there's a mouse over there, don't you Ken? Ken said
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: what he said, look, showed him a picture. He said,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: is this cute little mouse running around? And Ken said, well,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: we better do something about that. We've got people coming.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: You know, you don't want you don't want to have
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: people sitting there. And then all of a sudden the
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: mouse runs across the floor. It would be distracting at
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the very least, and so attempts were then made to
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: capture this mouse, and I thought, this is never gonna happen. Oh,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: it's never going to happen. And Jimmy was trying to
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: catch it. The employee was trying to.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Catch somebody video video.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Actually, I don't know why I should have done it,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: but I didn't. I was busy, kind of had my
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: tension divided. But all of a sudden, then everybody seemed
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: to stop trying to catch the mouse. And then Dawson
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: or I said, there, he is right there, and he
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: was like just ten feet away from me.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: And it was just a.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Little, tiny, little fella, little tiny brown mouse. Maybe it
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: was like it was a baby. I think it was
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: just really little. And uh, all of a sudden, Dawson
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: springs into action and start and nobody wanted to hurt
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the mouse. That's everybody's going, no, don't, we don't want
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: to hurt it.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Don't hurt it.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Don't hurt it. I mean, you could have just squashed
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: it with your foot, you know, it was that small.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: But Dawson, he had this plastic bag, a big plastic bag,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: and he's down on his hands and knees trying to
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: get this mouse to and he did. He got the
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: mouse to run into this plastic bag.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Did he happen to have a piece of cheese on him?
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Dawson? No, I don't think so. I think Dawson if
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: you get if you get close enough to Dawson, you'll
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: find that he always smells like cheese. But he caught
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: this little mouse in the in the in the plastic bag,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: and then he and Ken Ken said come on, we'll
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: take him outside. And they took him outside where I'm
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: sure a bird ate him, you know, swooped down.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: One of my kid's favorite books when they were little
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: was called Library Mouse, Library Mouse, about a mouse that
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: lived in the library and loved the books and loved
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: going to a like story time, listening to the library.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: You know what mice love about books, chewing the pages
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: up and ruining them.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: No, No, this book he was.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: He loved this.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: He was a literary mouse. It's a it's uh and
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Ken says, yeah, I see him. I'll see a mouse
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: down here every once in a while. It's just they
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: were just around, you know, but there. It always It
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: always makes me feel bad when you have to trap them.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: I've been in situations where people have had you know,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: the bam and Ken says he wants. He says, I
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: won't do that. I'll use I use live traps if
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I have to, I'll take them outside.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: And then somebody said, I don't think anything about squishing spiders,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: but I couldn't do it to a mouse. And I said,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: well there's more goose. Yeah you should be. You should
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: be in my house because we don't squish spiders in
• 3:48

• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Let's get him and put take him outside.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: That's what happens at my place.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: In my house is if you're in my house, it's
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: my house. Yeah, I'm not gonna rush the outside. We
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: don't squish things outside. That's your house. You know you've
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: built my house.

  Speaker 2: Like Carrie's brother in law used to live there. And
• 5:09

• 5:10
  Speaker 2: why did he move from there?
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: He lived in that area. Yeah, covered, that was one
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: of his areas that he had to cover. But that
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: meant that we would go out and visit him, and
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: then we would go to Santa Barbara.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: And and Sue sent me all of these restaurant recommendations
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and they were things like Julia Louis Dreyfus likes to
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: eat here, like it's it's like Oprah lives there, and did.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: You go to the place on the beach with the seafood.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and beach the first just day we went
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: there for onunch.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Just beautiful.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: You know. Santa Barbara means Saint Barbara. Yeah.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: So we went to the mission because my grandparents used
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: to go there every year on their anniversary and take
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: a picture.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Well, there's a that's the first thing that came up
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: when I googled Santa Barbara.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: It was a picture of that mission, of the mission
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: and your grandparents.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And if you go to my social media, my
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: my Facebook and everything, you can see that. But so
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: at the missions, we took the tour of the mission
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: and it's beautiful old building and then of course exit
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: through the gift shop, which is what you do. And
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: they have these and I sent this to Katie. I
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: don't know if she has it.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: I've got it if Katie doesn't have it, So.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: There is at These Franciscan wine.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: Bottle covers are creepy.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: They're eighteen ninety five now.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: So Franciscan. Well yeah, the monk hoods and the robe
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and the brown robe.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: But I took a picture of it and I said,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: I'm going to send this to Carrie because they look
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: like jawas and Joe took my phone out of my
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: hand and heat colored in little yellow eyes.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: They gave them yellow eyes.
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: And I said that if they sold them that way,
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: they would sell hundreds, hundreds of undreds of them.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think people might buy them just as is, because.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: They will click what are they for?
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: There are wine?
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Like like if you're giving a gift of a wine,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: it kind of is a you know, you put it
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: over the bottle bottle cover.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, I would get one of those if it was Java's.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: But so what I thought, Carrie, because we have this
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: thing now where we don't buy each other things. We
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: see things and think of you. And I saw this,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: and I thought, if I were buying Carrie things, I
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: would have bought in one of those little Java.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: You know, you should have got anyone. I would have
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: figured out a way to have the yellow eyes on it.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: I should have. I thought we weren't buying.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: That's the rule. Tell you what.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: I will go to Santa Barbara and get one.
• 7:36
