  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, they weren't when they put the speed bumps in.
• 17:11
  [SPEAKER_15]: They never thought about that.
• 17:12
  [SPEAKER_15]: I'm not here to judge anything.
• 17:16
  [SPEAKER_15]: But you know,
• 17:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, when they might open their door and somebody might hit it.
• 17:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, that could happen anywhere.
• 17:25
  [SPEAKER_15]: That could happen with peril, or with the, you know, there's a parallel parking out.
• 17:31
  [SPEAKER_15]: There was somebody this morning on Washington Street.
• 17:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: They were trying to pull in forward to a spot and they couldn't.
• 17:36
  [SPEAKER_15]: They were hanging out in the road.
• 17:38
  [SPEAKER_15]: I slowed down.
• 17:39
  [SPEAKER_15]: I was nice and I stopped and carefully went around at all.
• 17:43
  [SPEAKER_15]: I didn't hit anyone.
• 17:44
  [SPEAKER_15]: But that's me.
• 17:46
  [SPEAKER_15]: And I realize there's other people who aren't as nice as me.
• 17:49
  [SPEAKER_15]: So, what do we do?
• 17:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: What do we do about it?
• 17:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: Do we have to discuss two parking places for forty minutes?
• 17:58
  [SPEAKER_15]: And if they had passed a resolution saying, put two parking places in, what would it have happened?
• 18:05
  [SPEAKER_15]: I question whether it would have.
• 18:09
  [SPEAKER_15]: I question whether it would have.
• 18:14
  [SPEAKER_15]: Seven, five, five, twelve, forty, the phone number.
• 18:17
  [SPEAKER_15]: There's another story, schools, brace for my high changes to lunches.
• 18:21
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, didn't Mrs. Obama make changes to lunches, and schools don't have to brace for anything.
• 18:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: He's, I got all the money in the world.

  [SPEAKER_15]: It shows how bad Trump derangement syndrome is when a Kennedy.
• 18:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: A Kennedy, my God, because is hated by his family, merely because he associates with Donald Trump and tries to help the country.

  [SPEAKER_15]: Whatever we do, even incrementally, is better than what we're doing now.
• 19:36
  [SPEAKER_15]: I heard a rumor that shooties might reopen full-time.
• 19:39
  [SPEAKER_15]: That'd be great.
• 19:42
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's Pearl Street.
• 19:44

  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't know.
• 19:48
  [SPEAKER_15]: I haven't been able to confirm it.

  [SPEAKER_15]: Somebody wants to know why midget wrestling was canceled in Waterton.
• 20:01
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't know.
• 20:02
  [SPEAKER_15]: I didn't know it was being held and I didn't know it was canceled.
• 20:07
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's not a subject I have an interest in.
• 20:11
  [SPEAKER_15]: Not?
• 20:12
  [SPEAKER_15]: No, I just have no interest in it.
• 20:15
  [SPEAKER_15]: Maybe you do, but I don't.
• 20:20
  [SPEAKER_15]: Ah, let's see.
• 20:21
  [SPEAKER_15]: Somebody texted in.
• 20:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: Twelve years of school is way too much.
• 20:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: By seventh or eighth grade, kids should pick a trade and go from there.
• 20:30
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, they should pick a trade, yeah.
• 20:34
  [SPEAKER_15]: And there should be, you know, the idea of guidance counselors.
• 20:38
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't even know what guidance counselors do anymore.
• 20:41
  [SPEAKER_15]: I hope it isn't, you know, go to college because that's nothing wrong with more education.
• 20:47
  [SPEAKER_15]: But you're not going to get a good job going to college.
• 20:50
  [SPEAKER_15]: All you're going to get is a debt.
• 20:52
  [SPEAKER_15]: And then you're begging for the government to forgive it.
• 20:54
  [SPEAKER_15]: No, that's not going to work.
• 20:56
  [SPEAKER_15]: So, hmm.
• 21:01
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, what else have we got happening here?

  [SPEAKER_15]: And it's obvious he's been looking at it or talking to them, but it seems like nobody cares.
• 28:01
  [SPEAKER_15]: And while the money we spend out all the other stuff we have, some kind of institutionalization is necessary for some people, I hate to say that.

  [SPEAKER_15]: You can't give riddle in to everybody.
• 28:17
  [SPEAKER_15]: Somebody says, fix a fountain and fix the parking spots and call it a day.

  [SPEAKER_15]: I agree, put a fountain, put the old fountain back in there.
• 28:25
  [SPEAKER_15]: I've already got a guy who's volunteer to services to weld up the brackets to mount the thing.
• 28:32
  [SPEAKER_15]: And, you know, you can keep all of the planners and engineering cartel out of it.
• 28:39
  [SPEAKER_15]: You can have a nice fountain back and no time.
• 28:41
  [SPEAKER_15]: No time.

• 29:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: Oh, well.
• 29:24
  [SPEAKER_15]: But after dude, you're on the air.
• 29:25
  [SPEAKER_24]: I can't hear you today.
• 29:29
  [SPEAKER_15]: Right, what's up?
• 29:31
  [SPEAKER_24]: Oh, I'm down here in Florida.
• 29:32
  [SPEAKER_24]: Old Duffland here and enjoying myself.
• 29:35
  [SPEAKER_24]: Good.
• 29:39
  [SPEAKER_24]: Good.
• 29:40
  [SPEAKER_15]: Good.
• 29:40
  [SPEAKER_15]: Anything else on your mind?
• 29:41
  [SPEAKER_15]: Do you want to talk about anything?
• 29:43
  [SPEAKER_24]: Yeah, the angry guy is there.
• 29:45
  [SPEAKER_24]: You know, he had a good point.
• 29:47
  [SPEAKER_24]: You know, that fire a couple of weeks ago, they're over a rutless tree.
• 29:52
  [SPEAKER_24]: Yes.
• 29:53
  [SPEAKER_24]: the cops during interviewing a guy with a shop in cart with time was that I'd like to know that was you know it's in the evening I was late evening midnight is probably I don't know I'm not sure when it broke out but yeah I'm you know and the aggregates get a good point you know and interviewing a guy there with a shop in cart full of grocery or plastic bags I don't know if those groceries are not well it's on well it's in one sense sad
• 30:21
  [SPEAKER_15]: Because these people are many of them have issues that go beyond just wanting to be on the street with a shopping cart.
• 30:29
  [SPEAKER_15]: And society doesn't seem too well suited to dealing with it.
• 30:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: We've got a million social agencies and all of that, but we don't seem, and we spend a lot of money on all that, but I don't know, we don't seem to be able to deal with it.
• 30:44
  [SPEAKER_24]: Well, and then I watched this scene come to me in the other night.
• 30:48
  [SPEAKER_24]: They're talking about garbage.
• 30:51
  [SPEAKER_24]: things like that.
• 30:53
  [SPEAKER_24]: How much is your water bill?
• 30:56
  [SPEAKER_24]: Like at your business.
• 30:58
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, that runs about three hundred a quarter.
• 31:03
  [SPEAKER_24]: Okay.
• 31:04
  [SPEAKER_15]: That's our water and that's for my house and through apartments too.
• 31:08
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's the whole one we only have one meter.
• 31:12
  [SPEAKER_24]: Well, down here in Florida, we pay through our water bill, the garbage.
• 31:19
  [SPEAKER_24]: I couldn't tell you probably five ten more bucks a month and I want to build small I have a pool my water bills a hundred dollars a month my garbage is taking care of everything it's added to the water bill like when they added to the water bill up there and everybody's garbage would be taken care of you know I think I think there's merit to all of that I
• 31:44
  [SPEAKER_15]: I think we've got a rather, you know, we've got provincial attitudes that, you know, I know from being an office, it's very hard to fight the bureaucracy because it isn't that they aren't all sometimes right.
• 31:55
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's just that it's always, you know, they're always looking for reasons why they can't do something and not for reasons why they can do something.
• 32:03
  [SPEAKER_24]: Right.
• 32:03
  [SPEAKER_15]: And I think that's true across the board with bureaucracies.
• 32:07
  [SPEAKER_24]: Right.
• 32:08
  [SPEAKER_24]: But if, you know, every, you know, you figured we're looking for money for
• 32:14
  [SPEAKER_24]: Oh, trash and things like that.
• 32:16
  [SPEAKER_24]: Everybody wants to pay the water bill or they won't have any water.
• 32:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: Right.
• 32:20
  [SPEAKER_24]: So what if you had it?
• 32:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: We'll have to see on that.
• 32:24
  [SPEAKER_24]: Yeah.
• 32:25
  [SPEAKER_24]: To your water bill, that would take care of your garbage.
• 32:29
  [SPEAKER_24]: That's a bag or two bags of garbage a week.
• 32:32
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, I think it's a good idea.
• 32:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: I have no problem with that.
• 32:35
  [SPEAKER_15]: No problem whatsoever.
• 32:36
  [SPEAKER_24]: And also on the homeless there, but why can't we mind two different trucks
• 32:42
  [SPEAKER_24]: pick up glass with one truck and pick up cans with the other right then the trucks that we do have like and we just pick up cardboard.
• 32:52
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, it all ends up in the same place anyway.
• 32:54
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, I know I know I know.

• 33:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't know.
• 33:20
  [SPEAKER_15]: I suggested before they could rent that out, probably get twelve hundred a month for it.
• 33:25
  [SPEAKER_15]: Then he got a couple of eyeballs up there.
• 33:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, or let the mayor live there.

  [SPEAKER_19]: A funny, aside on this whole thing is, in April, it was six, eight.
• 48:30
  [SPEAKER_19]: I was in a station wagon, heading to vacation in my parents.
• 48:34
  [SPEAKER_19]: And I still, to this day, remember my mom and dad threatened to do.

  [SPEAKER_19]: And because you could see smoke from the fires from the riots.
• 48:42
  [SPEAKER_19]: And they were trying to go around the city in a way that would keep them clear of any of the trouble.

• 49:10
  [SPEAKER_15]: We don't judge.
• 49:11
  [SPEAKER_15]: We don't judge.
• 49:12
  [SPEAKER_15]: I wanted to ask more about Mr. Momsdami.
• 49:17
  [SPEAKER_15]: who seems to be doing pretty well.
• 49:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: He's up by nineteen point points in the latest sea on a poll.
• 49:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: That's pretty reputable polling firm.
• 49:25
  [SPEAKER_15]: So I don't know.
• 49:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: I guess he's going to.
• 49:28
  [SPEAKER_15]: I guess what when I look at him.
• 49:32
  [SPEAKER_15]: You wonder whether I forget about his ideology or his ideas or his proposals.
• 49:38
  [SPEAKER_15]: That thirty three with his resume does he have any relevant experience for running an organization of that size and I guess.
• 49:47
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, he'll get some people in there to do it for him.
• 49:51
  [SPEAKER_15]: So all we can, all we can really say, I don't know.
• 49:56
  [SPEAKER_15]: I mean, waiting to hear what our North Country people do.
• 50:01
  [SPEAKER_15]: Then we know there was a bit of a political fight going on.
• 50:05
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's not quite an hour area.
• 50:06
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's up to the North East towards Clinton County and Platsburg, but in the Republican Party, there was a big schism that's still festering over.
• 50:14
  [SPEAKER_15]: Remember last winter,
• 50:16
  [SPEAKER_15]: when congressman woman staphonic was going to go to the u.n.
• 50:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: then they pulled the nomination he you know there was talk of a special election to fill the seat never there was no consensus and a lot of the chair's favorite leaves joy and the congresswoman didn't and she wanted Chris take the assemblyman uh... apparently they've now settled on this senator dance stack and his uh... it was uh... close friend there the mayor of uh...
• 50:43
  [SPEAKER_15]: uh... melone is running for assembly and the county chair is now at odds with the congresswoman up there in clinton county because the county chair doesn't want to support and re-adubious was the mayor of melone and we can't really talk about the her reasoning but uh... people in the no no and uh... so i i don't know what's going on i we want to see the congresswoman move on and run for governor
• 51:14
  [SPEAKER_15]: Don't get involved in local petty nonsense with county chairs up there in dog patch or whatever other area is let it go.
• 51:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: You know the assembly seat if it gets filled by a Republican fine if it gets filled by a Democrat who cares the Democrat was in there before Billy Jones people liked him.
• 51:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: And the assembly is so lopsided Democratic is not going to matter anyway.
• 51:37
  [SPEAKER_15]: So don't get hung up on that as my advice if anybody asked me my political advice don't get hung up on local, local stuff and the petty politics of county chairs and all of that.
• 51:48
  [SPEAKER_15]: Because it's a certain point, you got to rise above that.
• 51:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: Got to rise above that.
• 51:55
  [SPEAKER_15]: All righty, seven, five, and if you know if the next year, if the seats vacant, it gets filled through a primary and
• 52:05
  [SPEAKER_15]: Please, Joy, run so what if she gets an nomination or whoever else, if Goeney gets it, so what?
• 52:11
  [SPEAKER_15]: You know, they'll run and they'll be judged on their merits against Jen to be in the Democrat.
• 52:16
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah.
• 52:18
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah.
• 52:19
  [SPEAKER_15]: Mr. Jen to be in her.
• 52:22
  [SPEAKER_15]: We've seen paling around with just James, but
• 52:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: That happens.
• 52:28
  [SPEAKER_15]: Listen, there's a lady running for Judge, a nice lady from Lewis County who's took a picture with just James and was widely criticized.
• 52:36
  [SPEAKER_15]: But I'm a forgiving person, so I was Candace Randall.
• 52:41
  [SPEAKER_15]: I think it's her name.
• 52:43
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't know who's running for State Supreme Court Judge, whilst we're supposed to vote for McCloskey, but there's more seats than that, aren't they?
• 52:50
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah.
• 52:51
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't know who else is.
• 52:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: I think it's like four seats up, so you get to choose up to four people.
• 52:58
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, we'll do that.
• 53:01
  [SPEAKER_15]: Um, seven, five, five, twelve, forty are for a number.
• 53:03
  [SPEAKER_15]: If you'd like to get beyond the air today and talk about whatever you want and my apologies, we had said the Congresswoman was going to call in, but he didn't.
• 53:17
  [SPEAKER_15]: And that's that.
• 53:20
  [SPEAKER_15]: Um, you know, we obviously are disappointed.
• 53:24
  [SPEAKER_15]: I wanted to hear from him.
• 53:25
  [SPEAKER_15]: I wasn't going to jump him or anything.
• 53:29
  [SPEAKER_15]: You know, I'm a professional interviewer.
• 53:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: I'm asking a couple of pointed questions, obviously.
• 53:37
  [SPEAKER_15]: But not anything bad.
• 53:39
  [SPEAKER_15]: Good afternoon, Your Highness.
• 53:39
  [SPEAKER_21]: Yeah, I was just talking through all of our working Americans.
• 53:47
  [SPEAKER_21]: All seniors are growing social security.
• 53:50
  [SPEAKER_21]: And anyone who's interested in protecting social security.
• 53:55
  [SPEAKER_21]: I got something I'd like to say.
• 53:58
  [SPEAKER_21]: Did you read that article?
• 53:59
  [SPEAKER_21]: I think about the member Mr. Trump fired the labor statistics.
• 54:03
  [SPEAKER_26]: Right, right, right, right.
• 54:06
  [SPEAKER_21]: And he's nominated a man from the Heritage Foundation.
• 54:10
  [SPEAKER_21]: It's a by the way, World Project, twenty twenty five, a man by the name of E. Jason and Tony.
• 54:18
  [SPEAKER_21]: And he's up for a nomination to be certified to be the new BLS secretary.
• 54:26
  [SPEAKER_21]: Our commission, I should say.
• 54:28
  [SPEAKER_21]: And he said the social security is a positive scheme like memory Elon Musk said then.
• 54:35
  [SPEAKER_21]: And it should be transitioned and shut down.
• 54:37
  [SPEAKER_21]: What do you think about that?
• 54:40
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, it's financially, right, right, right, right, right, right.
• 54:46
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's financially, and solvent in a few years.
• 54:49
  [SPEAKER_15]: And the only way you can trust.
• 54:52
  [SPEAKER_21]: As long as people are working, Jeff, they'll be paying into it.
• 54:56
  [SPEAKER_15]: That's true, but there's only like,
• 54:58
  [SPEAKER_15]: When the system first started, there were a lot more workers paying in than we're drawing.
• 55:02
  [SPEAKER_15]: Now it's a lot more drawing.
• 55:04
  [SPEAKER_15]: The only way you're going to correct that is to cut benefits or extend the retirement age or increase employer contributions, which are now seven points or excuse me, six point two percent of your wages.
• 55:18
  [SPEAKER_15]: So, you know, there's only so many ways you could make it solvent unless you're just going to print more money in bigger deficits.
• 55:23
  [SPEAKER_15]: That's probably the way we'll go.
• 55:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: and only a kind of this from uh... here is foundation is up for that position to be a little bit you know it should be called it should be sunset that means done away with well i mean uh... perhaps with some kind of alternative i don't know i mean for the same week for the same week for the same the same reason defined benefit pension systems have faded away because they didn't it couldn't afford it now it's a deal with government
• 55:58
  [SPEAKER_21]: tell people to help you work all your life.
• 56:00
  [SPEAKER_21]: You don't get any income that's back, social security, Medicare, Medicare, Medicare, Medicare, Medicare, that's your thing.
• 56:04
  [SPEAKER_21]: That's all it's conscious.
• 56:06
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, any decision, any decision, any decision?
• 56:10
  [SPEAKER_15]: Danny, any decision like that, as we made by Congress, who, how does Congress get there?
• 56:15
  [SPEAKER_15]: People like you vote for them.
• 56:18
  [SPEAKER_15]: Elections, you know?
• 56:19
  [SPEAKER_21]: That this Congress is not going to pass anything left on Trump.
• 56:24
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, they're also not they're not going to eliminate social security stop.
• 56:29
  [SPEAKER_15]: Stop, you know that you've been around long enough.
• 56:33
  [SPEAKER_21]: I've been paying so I've been paying so straight, but even now it's just ninety fifty seven by first.
• 56:37
  [SPEAKER_21]: I was doing high school.
• 56:39
  [SPEAKER_21]: Yeah.
• 56:42
  [SPEAKER_15]: And nobody's trying to take it out.
• 56:44
  [SPEAKER_15]: These are inflammatory headlines that the, you know, the Democrats and the media put out there to scare people.
• 56:50
  [SPEAKER_15]: It isn't going to happen.
• 56:51
  [SPEAKER_15]: Now eventually there may be a day of reckoning.
• 56:55
  [SPEAKER_21]: It's not a hit.
• 56:55
  [SPEAKER_21]: Why just not a leftist is for Democrats this or communist.
• 56:58
  [SPEAKER_21]: That this guy is up for non-anation.
• 57:00
  [SPEAKER_21]: He made this statement that it's a positive scheme and it needs to be sunset.
• 57:04
  [SPEAKER_21]: And he wants to be the guy who runs a statistics from the United States that Trump said that he fired up woman for her because she couldn't.
• 57:11
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, he's speaking the truth.
• 57:16
  [SPEAKER_15]: And you know, whether you want to hear the word Ponzi scheme.
• 57:21
  [SPEAKER_15]: It's an insolvent system in terms of if you do the math.
• 57:24
  [SPEAKER_15]: That math has been done by others.
• 57:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: Others, Dan, and they've come to the same conclusion by two thousand thirty-five.
• 57:33
  [SPEAKER_21]: The bottom line is the goal of the government of the United States, which is currently right now is not discovered.
• 57:38
  [SPEAKER_21]: It should be to protect social security for every working of Americans.
• 57:43
  [SPEAKER_15]: Then, Danny, if you want to protect it, then you have to raise the contribution rates.
• 57:49
  [SPEAKER_15]: or change the benefit levels.
• 57:51
  [SPEAKER_15]: That's the only way.
• 57:53
  [SPEAKER_15]: And whether you're not, not Dan Francis's.
• 57:55
  [SPEAKER_21]: And should be some matching funds in there, too, from the government, maybe rather than going to all these other things, matching funds could go into social security, protect the seniors on the get over.
• 58:05
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, first of all, nothing's going to affect your benefit.
• 58:08
  [SPEAKER_15]: But as generations coming up, maybe the schedule of benefits is different.
• 58:14
  [SPEAKER_15]: Who knows?
• 58:14
  [SPEAKER_21]: This guy should not be in this nominated for this.
• 58:19
  [SPEAKER_21]: He's going to come up with numbers that Trump's going to love.
• 58:22
  [SPEAKER_21]: That's going to be against everything.
• 58:24
  [SPEAKER_15]: I'm worried about it.
• 58:26
  [SPEAKER_15]: Okay.
• 58:27
  [SPEAKER_15]: All righty.
• 58:28
  [SPEAKER_15]: All right.
• 58:29
  [SPEAKER_15]: Thank you.
• 58:30
  [UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
• 58:31
  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, I got to apologize to John Moore too.
• 58:33
  [SPEAKER_15]: I mean, I told him that the representative Goldman was going to call in.
• 58:37
  [SPEAKER_15]: I was kind of excited about it.
• 58:39
  [SPEAKER_15]: All we're going to get somebody famous.
• 58:40
  [SPEAKER_15]: And we don't get a lot of people.
• 58:42
  [SPEAKER_15]: And then
• 58:44
  [SPEAKER_15]: And he doesn't.
• 58:46
  [SPEAKER_15]: And he was supposed to call in the Glenn Show and he didn't.
• 58:50
  [SPEAKER_15]: I think he found out that both Glenn and I are bad people.
• 58:57
  [SPEAKER_15]: But I don't know.
• 59:00
  [SPEAKER_15]: I was just going to ask him about the Yankees and whether they should fire Aaron Boomer or something like that.
• 59:06
  [SPEAKER_15]: I was going to ask any tough questions.
• 59:09
  [SPEAKER_15]: If he couldn't answer that question, he doesn't deserve the U.S.
• 59:12
  [SPEAKER_15]: Senator.
• 59:13
  [SPEAKER_15]: because the answer to that question is yes.
• 59:16
  [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, what the Yankees do last night, they finally win one, I think they did, but I don't know.
• 59:20
  [SPEAKER_15]: I don't even pay much attention anymore, they're so terrible, so terrible.
• 59:26
  [SPEAKER_15]: Okay, once again, the Trump announces Kennedy Center, honors nominees, George Strait, Michael Crawford, he's an English actor, Sylvester Stallone, rock band kiss, and singer, Gloria Gainer.
• 59:41
  [SPEAKER_15]: I think that's a good field of people, but it will be roundly criticized on the news later today.
• 59:47
  [SPEAKER_15]: Alrighty, that's our show for today.
• 59:48
  [SPEAKER_15]: We'll be back tomorrow.
• 59:50
  [SPEAKER_15]: Glenn will be at five.
• 59:51
  [SPEAKER_15]: Don't miss any of it.
• 59:52
  [SPEAKER_15]: You're listening to the hotline on a community broadcast to station.
• 59:55
  [SPEAKER_15]: This is A. I'm twelve forty.
• 59:57
  [SPEAKER_15]: We're WATN.
• 59:58
  [SPEAKER_15]: We're in Watertown, New York.
• 59:59
  [SPEAKER_15]: A time on a clock and CBS news coming up.
