Mr. Sanders will keep the clock. Mr. Keith Thomas, 432, woodgate drive. Mr. Thomas. Hey, hi, everybody. I want to tell City Council today, Prairie City Council members, Prairie City Manager. Yeah, excellent job today. Y'all look so good today. On a good log, Austin. Y'all can glad y'all pulled it off, and look so good and I'm very proud of y'all. I really am. That's what they got me to say though. You know, I was coming out less and sorry last week. And I was coming from my house. I was coming up less and sorry. I almost got the phone in the street. A kid come across that roadway. Lord Jesus, no he didn't stop. If I hadn't gone up in Gordes, 10 miles on the speed, I wouldn't have been killed. I went around a lot to stop, and you know, I don't know what the cycle was. And it wasn't the same approach. There was another kid, he said, that was another kid, and that was another guy I don't know what he was. We already had one of community saying that was another cattle from the garden. We already had one of the tallies on the nearby. For the most of it, what a hell, man, no way to go. That's fun. We get it from some of that. It's getting so bad. And I hate to see one of y'all go down there, and one of those kids went to the stop sign. And y'all, you want to cure them. It's not going to be good. It's not going to be good at all. I mean, we have to just go one bike street and sit down and talk with those kids to hate you cannot do that. and y'all even want to kill him. It's not what we do. It's not what we do at all. I mean, we have to just go on right street and sit down and talk with those kids to hate you. You cannot do this. You cannot ride this just as well as stop sign. I had a drink of liquid probably about nine months. That took one day. It was just that bad, seriously. I mean, that kid's getting so bad I know him. And I imagine that could have been my kid, somebody would have stopped signing out of the house, it's my kid. It made me bad. I believe it, Jesus. But we just had to get out of here that stops on how it gets my key. It made me bad. I believe it was bad. Jesus. So I mean to say that here today I come to take a drink and look at it with bad. I mean, I took some scouts out of the cabin and my wife had some red stuff. She was scouts. We know that I'm a diabetic, she got all of them, but it was just that bad. I'm telling you.
