I like to think he's on the phone right now with somebody. He just cold called somebody. And it was a good reminder, thinking about that story, it was a good reminder about picking up the phone. I still talk to a lot of alcoholics and addicts every week, get to a lot of meetings, but I don't call as many people as I used to. I get sucked into a couple calls and I'll text back and forth with guys some days. It isn't the same. It isn't quite the same.
