Our next unit, the Muslim Community Family Contingency, the Sparer Unit.

We're coming to the opening to River Road.

World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first World's first and I look at him like I look at group a Lou Palmer as my grandpapa brother Jake Caravaz.

One of the major problems with the base of knowledge from which most of us have to operate here in the Western Hemisphere is the very inadequate mythological history of America that we find in the rules and that we find in the libraries and that we find on the shelves and that we sometimes unfortunately pass down ourselves in the oral tradition here in the Western Hemisphere.

We suggest a couple of things that we can bear in mind.

One of course is what Van Sertima was driving at in his book and that is that African people were exploring and sailing over to the Western Hemisphere many centuries before even Eric the Red or Leif Erickson whichever one was the one that was supposed to have predated Columbus according to the European ethnic warfare that Africans had been doing business in the Western Hemisphere a long time before that.

But if you want to understand...

and you know Montgomery war they're still changing things they ain't changed enough.

Let JCPenney have their penny any stuff.

Keep your books in your pocket bring it to church and man be a blessing the kingdom of God.

You know all that stuff you give folks at Christmas time I mean three days later brother.

No more war! No more war! No more war! No more war! No more war! No more war! No more war! Thank you very much.

Have a great night.

Enjoy yourself.

Have a good party.

And you know with some segments they're way too long and I also apologize for the sink problem.

The projector wasn't quite up to snuff but we still have a lot more shooting that we want to do and we need to raise a lot more money so we really appreciate your support tonight.

One more time, we're reminding you not to avoid any casualties.

Be sure you drink plenty of water, more data read.

There are water stations at the start of the race, water stations at the end of the race.

For $21 ,000 do the Lake and Park Zoo.

I think what's important here is that everyone realized the check is really not a mistake.

Let me hold it up here.

The $121 ,000 is all the money that you and WLS have raised for us to date.

So today's $21 ,000 and $100 ,000 from the previous races.

Someday we'll get a $121 ,000 check and that's going to be awfully exciting.

Hey, you're learning with the check.

Oh jeez, I didn't know.

Right here at the start and at the finish area, another two and a half miles.

We will have Ray Parsley -Bell on the court at the end of the race.

We'll have people take them from you but we're going to have the fair off at the end of the race.

I think she'll be filled out.

I think we have about five or six.

How are you? We hope to have that in the sports.

20 seconds before race time.
