International Cat Day with a two-day Fate de Feline Celebration in New York City's Madison Square Park on Monday, August 7th. So if you're listening live, today is the 27th

of July, 2023. It will host the Fait-Dufeline grand tasting, an intimate event, featuring a variety of sips and bites

created for humans, but showcasing the flavors of Fancy Feast. The exclusive menu was designed by Fancy Feast In-house chef

Amanda Hasner and Andrew Ray, the iconic, and I mean iconic, YouTube foodie behind binging with Babish and basics.

with Babish and the rest of the Babbage Culinary Universe. Sure, we've all seen that on YouTube. So they did this last year, and it was such a hit, that they're doing it again. The menu for Fat Dufeline, he wanted to play with all things that make fancy feasts so appealing to cats, and bring those to life for cat lovers. Look, serving food,

whether to other people or our pets is such an act of love. And I want humans to get a taste of delight cats' experience when eating. The meal will include savory, basil, lemonade served with fancy feast style. And I don't know if that means you get it into one of those little metal cans or not. And braised beef panzanella, Ray also put his own spin on the old fancy feast, Gems standard paté with gravy.

Yum! Pate is such a classic presentation in both fine dining and cat food. I recreate famous dishes every day, but taking on my cat Bucky's favorite food was fun and a new challenge for me. Was it? Was it chef? Okay. All right. So Fancy Feast is giving away a limited number of free tickets

for its Fate du Feline Grand Tasting, which will be held between 5 and 6.30 p.m. on Monday, August 7th. You can register for the event beginning 12 p.m. Eastern this coming Monday, July 31st. Perspective attendees will be allowed to register for themselves and one guest. The other international Cat Day-themed experiences, including hand-drawn pet portraits and meet and greet with the first. fancy feast cat will be open to the public on August 8th the following day. Oh, and cats on leashes or in carriers are also allowed to accompany their humans to the event. Man does that sound good,

especially if they serve it to you in one of those little tin cans or a bigger size, you know, human size can. Now that would be a collector's item. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. So the Jason Aldeen controversy is still ongoing because some, you know who you are, won't let it go. I mean, I know it was canceled from CMT. Oh, the horror. I mean, CMT, oh, no one watches CMT, right? I mean, they cannot have more. I wonder what their viewing audience is.

Let's take a look, shall we? Okay. outside of the awards shows, which actually air on CMT and other networks like Paramount, they get pretty good numbers for that because the stars are there for those award shows. The regular rankings,

according to one story, they're down 64% since they pulled the plug on the Jason Aldeen song. And I was looking at the CMT ratings. They look like they get I don't know,

173,000 138,000 25 to 54 they get 37,000 people watching in the demo, holy, that's not good. That's not good. So nobody's watching CMT. I mean, yes, people actually do watch CMT.

Just not a huge amount of people. So why not just alienate the people you have watching by pulling, you know, the top artist videos at the same time. Yeah, that's a good, that's a smart move. That's a really smart move. Now, and Jason has not backed down. He continues to sing the song, said it wasn't, the song was not about racism or anything.

It was just about, you know, try that in a small town. Life was better in a small town. So, now it's being said that I can't believe he bent the knee. I can't believe footage was removed from the video. The video has now been edited. They removed clips from Black Lives Matter protests in Atlanta. He bent the knee. He didn't really bend the knee.

He had to take six seconds of the BLM protests in Atlanta out of the video because they claim that it was. third-party copyright clearance issues. Okay. So that was the record label, BBR Music Group, said that, yeah, we took the six seconds out because due to a third-party copyright clearance issue.

Okay. So that means that they looked at this video and could only find the six seconds to come after him about. That they said, no, you got to remove that because that's somebody else's, video, this person's video, and you don't have the copyright clearance to air that. Six seconds.

He did not bend the knee. They forced that on him. And if that's all they could find, try that in a small town. All right. So speaking of try that in a small town, I see, well, a small village. It could be coming to a small town near you or a very large town near you. This small village in Western France. I kind of like it. I think it works. has a series of criss-crossing white lines at an intersection of several main roads

and the mayor says it's a way of encouraging drivers to slow down in an area where the speed limit is supposed to be well it says here 20 KPH okay nobody knows how fast that is no wonder they have the lines I mean we need to do miles per hour

okay then maybe we'll do but he was saying that sometimes drivers top 50 so the 1,700 inhabitants, which is crossed by three main county roads, people drive too fast. So this is a way to slow people down. He said we could have put in speed bumps, but that gets loud in the village. Really? Maybe it gets loud when people drive too fast over them.

But there are signs there and everything, but this is one way to slow traffic down. And when you see, you know, all the lines. on the road and everything, you would slow down coming into that area for sure because you're like, hey, what's going on here? And, you know, people are all mad. Oh, you're forcing a confusing drivers instead of forcing them to drive slower. No. If even if they're confused, they'll drive slower and then they'll figure it out. And they're talking about what if happens to pedestrians want to cross the road against all those lines? How does that happen? I don't. I don't I don't know, you go to the corner and cross the street.

And you can put in these lines if you see the configuration. And I'll post it on my show social media post when the show goes up today, as I always do. I give you a picture that relates to the show and a chewing-the-fat picture on my posts. When you follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR or X at Jeffey JFR, Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. Every day. It's what I do. I post a new show. You get a photo that relates to the show, and you get a chewing the fat photo as well.

I know. I know. You're welcome if you haven't figured it out yet. And if you are just saying, well, that's right. I guess you do do that. I know. Okay. Welcome aboard.

Come on. Appreciate you. Okay. So anyway, you could put the way they have the line set up if you were to put two straight lines across at the crosswalk for people to cross. I would make sense. You could make that happen. You could make that happen in this configuration.

So I kind of think it works. It may be coming to a village, a town near you soon. It's really cool. This is not your private garden, Mr. Mayor. Oh, okay. It's stupid and dangerous. Good comeback, Potsie. Okay.

That's the whole point of it. We want people to slow, down. Okay. Another, you know, the EU, obviously, in France wants people to slow down and they want to, you know, calm down a little bit. And they want, they're, I guess they have a goal of having,

like, halving, have, have, H-A-L-V-E, all right, I got you. All right. It's H-A-L-F. Okay, it's half. Anyway, they want to cut their accident deaths in half by 2030. And this is one way that they're kind of looking at. at it. I like it. I think it works. I think it does. I like this better than speed bumps.

And, you know, after the, I don't know, met the second or third time you drive through this area, you'll realize, oh, it's just the squiggly lines and you'll be back to speeding through the speeding through the small town anyway. So get over it. I also see, speaking of cars, I see where BMW, General Motors, Honda, Honda, Honda, Kia and Stalantis, along with Mercedes-Benz, are now banding together to shell out at least a billion dollars, which isn't much for all of those corporations, to build more vehicle charging stations.

Huh! So the group wants to build 30,000 high-speed EV charges in the U.S. in the U.S. and Canada by 2030 that will service cars with Tesla's charging. standard, which most others are now adopting as well as the North American standard. They're talking about, oh, you know, this unity, this unusual, unity makes sense. Since one major hurdle to EV adoption by drivers has been a lack of available chargers, you know, I kind of feel like that's not true anymore.

I kind of feel like the reason nobody's buying the cars is they're too expensive, and they're too expensive to charge for your, I mean, for your drives, I definitely think the lack of available chargers is one thing that would go against your purchases. But there's, I mean, I see charging stations everywhere. And I don't want to be locked down to a charger for an automobile. Sorry, I just don't. You have to, they've got to do better on the charging. Plus, I don't know if you know this, but gasoline works great. And I know we hate gasoline anymore, but we need to stop that because Americans don't hate gasoline. Some of the people in power hate gasoline, but Americans don't. So you want an electric car, have an electric car. But all these companies, BMW GM,

Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Stalantis, Mercedes, Benz, they're all figuring out, nobody really wants our electric cars. I know we're mandating that everything has to be electric, but nobody wants them. We're collecting dust. They're going to be trying to give them away soon. I mean, they're going to have way too many vehicles on the lot. GM's already talking about laying off more people and stopping the automakers manufacturing plan. Yeah, you're going to have to revisit that quickly because nobody wants your electric vehicles. Okay. All right, let's go to the break. room. I need something cold to drink desperately. You can always contact the show. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. That's the email address.

Happy to receive your emails. I see them all. I may not respond to everyone, but I do see them all. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. A quick lotto watch. Nobody won Powerball. So Saturday night's drawing the 29th of July. As I told you already today, if you're listening live, is the 27th of July, 2023. The 29th Saturday Night drawing has now 60 million. 31.1 million cash payout. It's getting close to, you know, worth looking at. And then tomorrow night we have the mega millions, which is 910 million dollars,

$464.2 million cash payouts. So good luck. I'm just letting, you know, just reminding you. you that it's out there, okay? Just reminding you that it's out there. Do you think that you would pay someone to help you get into a sorority or your daughter? I guess it doesn't have to be a daughter. It could be anyone. If you're, if your child identifies as someone who wants to get into a sorority, would you pay someone to help them get in? I guess you have to now. So, Stacia Damron, owner of sorority consultancy, hiking in high heels, charges for on-call.

I mean, that would be her job because she's a sorority recruitment coach. That's America right there. Find a niche and do it. Good for Stacey, man. That's awesome. So she charges for on-call advising service during sorority. rush and she's not alone in finding a business opportunity. This is a growing industry.

Okay. So the sorority consultancy groups are a growing industry. Now Stacey is called hiking at high heels. Okay, so aspiring sisters, oh my gosh, shell out anywhere between $150 for a video chat to $3,500 for on-the-clock mental. leading up to and throughout the highly competitive recruitment process. So I am now thinking of becoming a sorority consultant. Yes, I'm trying to think of a good name for my sorority consultancy group.

Hers is hiking in high heels. Mine would be, you know, legs up. No, stop. It's just a joke. Legs up in high heels. That's my group. What are I going to do a sorority? Yeah.

Legs up at highheels.com. Don't go to that site. I don't know if that's actually a site. It might be. So anyway, if you have a sorority-aged human in your home and they say, I really want to join the sorority, you can get that. I'm in touch with hiking and high heels. And soon, my own consultant office legs up with in heels group.

And I'll help you out. $150 for a video chat. That's a lot cheaper. You know, you can just get a cameo for me. I'll tell you how to do it. Cameo is a lot cheaper. At Jeffrey JFR. Tell me, you know, you can, I have obviously, you know, birthdays and anniversaries and all that stuff.

That's what cameo is. But if you need me to be a sorority consultant, I'll order a cameo from me. That's cheaper than the $150 for a video chat and $3,500 for an on-the-clock mentorship. Holy cow. I'll do it for a lot cheaper. My legs up in heels group will do that for a lot cheaper. Oh man, I know. Just stop it.

So I see in Iowa, they have this thing called Ragbri. R-A-G-B-R-A-I. And it's turned 50. It started back in 1973. So it's the annual great, what it stands for, is Register's Annual Great Bicycle ride across Iowa. Ragbri. Now, I'm torn on this because no one supports bicyclists like me and this show. I love

bicyclists. Oh my gosh. I love them. I love them all. I want them to just be on the road and you know, have every advantage of an automobile, but be treated better. That's what I want. It's just unbelievable. Now, it is the largest bike touring event in the world in the world incredible so you start it's a you start at the missouri river and i guess you're you know you put your your back tire or whatever tire you want in the missouri river and then you finish all the legs of the ride and you end up at the mississippi river in davenport iola and boy does that sound fun a week long ride it's started because of two writers from the Des Moines Register,

and they celebrated the golden anniversary. People are doing it with their children and their grandchildren now. It's such a great event. I mean, if you look at the pictures, I would be so pissed. If I had to wait for all these bicyclists to go blocking the roads. Now, I guess it happens every year, so you know what's going to happen. And they, you know, they tell you the route that they're, taking or the routes plural that they're taking and each day you know now the governor is involved

and all these other dinkleberries are involved in the whole thing and you know it's a it's a certain amount every day right i mean the whole the whole trip is a certain amount every day i get it and now it's uh you know it's the advertisers came in and people have other people show up with bike parts and they have people setting up their tents on the other end on each side that aren't taking the bikes. Okay, well, that's what the deal is, right? And I don't really know that you win anything. I mean, it doesn't say, hey, you get a T-shirt.

Maybe you have to buy a T-shirt. Let's go to ragbri.com, shall we? It's been going on all week, and you can be a part of the world's largest cycling experience. Now, they show people, you know, underneath little tents there at the Ragabri celebration. I don't think all that merchandise that they show is free. Okay?

I think they're looking to make some money from that, from the old Ragbri event. So, just saying, I don't think it doesn't say... All right, I should say, I can't find what you get in the packet when you sign up. But I was just looking around trying to see, you know, what happens. I mean, it's a week-long event. You're biking across Iowa.

It's thousands of bicyclists going across the state. Oh, my gosh, it must be so nerve-wracking. And then I see this on Reddit about a person who went to Ragbri or is going to Ragby. There now, as a matter of fact, according to this post. And they posted their packing list and itinerary. Uh, entry to Ragbri. 250 bucks. They charge you to enter to take the bike ride?

Okay. And so for this person who lives in North Carolina, flights were $400 a person. Rental cars to and from the airport, $350. Hotels, $600 for a couple of nights. Buying cardboard bike boxes because they had to ship their bikes. FedEx. Plus you got food every day. And then they have the packing list of the stuff that you need to take.

And you don't forget about your cycling shoes and tennis shoes and your backpack with all your stuff in it because you're going to need cycling outfits and you're going to need toilet trees and all kinds of other stuff in your overnight gear backpack on top of camping gear. You're going to have to pull a trailer behind you. No, thank you. And don't forget sunscreen. And please, please don't forget deodorant. Okay. So Ragbri is going on and man, does that sound like fun. Nothing like biking across the great state of Iowa. Am I right? You know I am. With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply.

Who died today? Who died today? Well, sadly, Sanate O'Connor. has died at the age of 56 months after her son's death, her 17-year-old son. She could not get over the death of her 17-year-old son. Now, she has three other children. So, I mean, I know that one kid is horrific, and I don't wish that on anyone, ever. But holy cow, now, her 17-year-old son committed suicide. and before she was hospitalized last year, she said that I've decided to follow my son.

There is no point living without him. Everything I touch, I ruin. I only stayed for him and now he's gone. Now, that's reported that she tweeted that. I went back and looked at some of her tweets, and I could not find that one, so I guess maybe it was deleted and went away. And it was a tweet then.

It's not an ex. I'm not dead Well, I guess I am dead naming Twitter, but it was Twitter at the time that she posted. Anyway, they have not given the cause of her death yet. Oh, I mean, it's probably

pretty clear for most people that she committed suicide. Very sad and tragic. I mean, so many tributes poured in. I read a great tribute to her from Russell Crow. I read an interesting tribute, to her from Rob Schneider about the SNL days

and the show where she ripped up Pope John Paul's picture that made, you know, national news and was you know, uh, huge news. And, uh, it's just, uh, you know, she's had a, she's an amazing person, for sure. Now, whether you like her music or not. But, uh, very sad that she passed away.

And it's incredible to me that she just could not get over the death of her one child. She had, you know, she's got three other children, but that one was the special one. So very sad, very sad. Gena-O-Conne. Dead at the age of 56. At least six people have died. That's pretty amazing that only six people have died from Typhoon Doxuri, which smashed into the northern Philippine provinces with ferocious wind and rain, leaving at least.

at least six people dead and displacing thousands of others as it blew off with roofs and houses. Yeah, I mean, that's what it does. Floods, low-lying villages and triggered, you know, dozens of landslides. Yeah, that's what it does. Or I should say they do.

That's what they do. You know, typhoons, hurricanes. So we may end up having a lot more deaths than that. And I hope that that... I hope that number six holds true, but I doubt that very much. It was 435 mile wide band of wind and rain. It's a pretty big storm.

109 mile an hour and gusts up to 133 miles an hour. So that's my... And so nobody, I don't wish that on anyone, typhoons and hurricanes are not fun, and you can quote me on that. So be prepared for the horrific photos coming out of the northern Philippine provinces once we get the footage after Typhoon Daksora. Then in Australia, we have huge,

I mean, just an amazing amount of whales that are stranded. I mean, it's just incredible, this pod of almost a hundred, long-finned pilot whales were spited along this Shane's Beach C-H-E-Y-N-E-S-Beech and the southern tip of the Australian state

of Western Australia Incredible, 51 of them had died and probably all are going to end up dying. They were somewhere laying sideways, other on their backs, flapping tails. I mean, that's, guess what? When they beached themselves, that's what happens. I love all their legs sideways and on their backs.

Yeah, because they realized, hey, maybe I didn't want to do this. So now they're trying to rescue them and coax the other 45 whales to the ocean. Really? Come on now. Who's a good little whale that doesn't want to kill themselves? Come this way. Let me drag you. Let me grab your tail and see if I can pull your whaleness out into the ocean.

Okay. I can't? Okay. Well, you're going to have to do it yourself then. I mean, what's happening? I mean, I know it happens all the time. But these long-finned pilot whales grow up to 25 feet and are identified by their black color and bulbous foreheads

and can be found in the southern hemisphere and in the North Atlantic. So, anyway, we don't know what, apparently, what could be they were trying to avoid a predator like a killer whale. Uh-huh. Yeah. A hundred whales. ran away from a killer whale and then just ended up on the shore and decided, hey, let's just go to the beach and kill ourselves, okay? Well, they don't realize they're going to kill themselves until it's too late.

Okay, you know, I don't know what makes them disoriented, what makes them lost. I mean, I thought they had sonar that they realized, hey, we probably shouldn't go there. I mean, last year we had a couple hundred of them, right, along the coast in Australia. Only 35 survived or were refloated. So I guess they do have a way of coaxing them back into the ocean. Come here, baby, get back out here. And then a couple years ago, they had like 450 of them up on the beach, just hanging out. That's what they were doing.

They beat themselves and they just hung out, smoke cigarettes. you know, built a bonfire. So sad. It's just really sad. I don't know why they do it, but they do do it. And it's kind of a natural phenomenon. So maybe we ought to just calm down as humans.

Okay. So yesterday I go to the WBAP 820 AM at 99.5 FMHG2 website. It's a news talk station here in DFW. And it's the, It's the big talk station in Dallas, Fort Worth. And I was searching their website because I heard a rumor that the afternoon show host got the boot. And so, you know, I'm looking at shows, and his name has been scrubbed from the website now.

It's just the WBAP afternoon show listed on the website now. Nobody's specific being broadcast. As soon as they walk into the doormat, website updated. Nothing naming you is on the website anymore. Have a nice day. Yeah, we liked you for 10 years or so, but not anymore. You're having a nice day. So anyway, I'm on their website, you know, just seeing if the rumor I heard was true.

It was. And I see this headline about the Attorney General's office reaches a settlement with Walmart in an opioid lawsuit. And I thought, did we talk about that? $168 million settlement with Walmart over the opioid lawsuit in Texas. Walmart has agreed to pay $168 million. in a settlement with the Texas Attorney General's office in connection to a lawsuit filed over the company's role in the nationwide opioid crisis. The office accused the retail giant of being negligent in its practices pertaining to opioid marketing, selling, and dispensing.

And nobody wants anything to do with that. So here's 168 million. We're good, right? Okay. But I haven't seen any of this money. In this article, it talks about the Texas Attorney General. General's office has secured $2.91 billion from allergen, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Malancrock, Tiva, Ando, Johnson & Johnson, Amerisors, Bergen, Cardinal Health, McKesson, and McKenzie

for Texas and its citizens. And I'm like, uh, 2.9,1 billion, I'd like my cut. Uh, sure. Okay. I mean, if everybody's getting cash from this. opioid lawsuit, I'm in. Now, apparently, according to this article, I have until the end of this month, July, 2023, to sign on and be a part of this whole settlement and benefits and opioid remediation funds that are owed. So county governments, local governments,

I guess maybe that's what they're talking about, because they're talking about to ensure that citizens and entities receive all the benefits. So I'm looking to sign out. If I'm getting a cut of $2.91 billion over an opioid settlement that I think is ridiculous to begin with, I am absolutely signed. In fact, we're going to go to the website right now and see if I can sign up to get my cut of the 2.5. $1.91 billion.

How to join the new and Walmart settlements sign on. I could be in. I could be in for all of this. Okay. So, all right. I'm just happy, just write me a check

and we'll be good. Okay? That's all you have to do. Just write me a check. And you know, if they do have money for individual citizens, it's not going to be very much. Oh yeah, we gave all that money to the cities and the municipalities and other businesses that are going to help in opioid addiction. All of the citizens that signed up for their opioid abatement funding.

Yeah, here's a quarter. All right. And have a nice day. Get out of here. And I know what you're thinking. How can you say here's a quarter without saying call someone who cares? Because it's an old Travis Tritt song

and now it's in my head. Every time you say, yeah, here's a quarter. Call someone who cares. This episode is brought to you. to you by Peloton. A new era of fitness is here.

Come on now. So the U.S. is going to play Portugal next. And the Netherlands will take on Vietnam. And they'll try to emerge with, you know, whoever ends up with the most goals, I guess. and it was prime time game last night aired on Fox. So the next game that the Americans will play, the match of Group E play, which will be against, as I said, Portugal,

at 3 a.m. Eastern, Tuesday morning from Auckland, New Zealand. So either stay up real late on the West Coast, maybe get up early in the mountain in Central Time. I don't know. I don't know. 3 a.m. Eastern, you're up early or you're up. You stay up late on the West Coast, but good luck. Good luck to the Americans and the women's national soccer team there in the World Cup.

Oh, and I told you yesterday that the Hunter Biden deal would go through. I was wrong. Really incredible that the judge said, no, you know, how about no? How about no? so now he's pled not guilty instead of pleading guilty to the plea deal all right so i guess he you know he had to change his plea deal because the way it all worked out because he was trying to i know there was you know they were pissed at the attorneys for misrepresenting who they were and the judge was like whoa whoa what's going on here but really uh they tried to slip in the you know

the idea that he was going to make this plea deal, so he didn't have to be charged. He couldn't be charged with anything else down the road. And the judge was like, no, we're not going to do that. No, we're not going to do that. So how about we come back with another deal and just remember that he still could be charged with other crimes down the road,

okay? This isn't going to be covering all. of the possible crimes that the son of our president may have or may not have done because he's still being investigated. So, man, I was wrong. 100% wrong. Really surprising. Glad to see it.

You know, a lot of other people in the United States have been thrown in jail for the same crimes and lesser crimes, actually. So maybe, you know, maybe the walls are starting to close in on the Bidens. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Oh, I kill me. I know. I know. I know.

I was just a... I was just kidding myself on that. Today's the day, too. That the Barbie-sized... I'm sorry, the 100-barby-sized asteroid was supposed to pass Earth. I don't know. By the time you're hearing this show, it's probably already missed us. if you're not listening to the show, maybe it hit us.

I don't know. But I know that the Jerusalem Post likes talking about the sizes of asteroids in weird ways. And since it's a Barbie world, it's got to be the size of Barbies. So an asteroid, the size of 100 Barbies, is going to pass us today. And so hopefully we're okay. I hope you're listening to the podcast and not, you know, under the, under the asteroid that hit the earth. I don't want that to happen to you.

You're welcome about that. I care about you. So remember back in February, I'd forgotten about this, actually, asteroid 2023 CX1 hit the Earth near Normandy, France. And that was the size of like two Super Bowl trophies by the time it hit the Earth.

So no big deal, right? So hopefully if the 100-sized Barbie asteroid doesn't burn up in the atmosphere if it were to come, you know, close to Earth, then it really wouldn't do any damage. But we've got the big asteroid redirection test planetary defense group going at NASA, right? And that's supposed to be awesome. I mean, they said they succeeded in punching demorphists out of Alter, are out of orbit, right?

I mean, they altered the orbit of that. Well, guess what? They now are saying, you know what? We've taken some other images about the, around the asteroid that we smashed into and diverted. Yeah, you know, what happened was the rocks that, you know, were caused by the crash, they drifted away from the asteroid. So now there's more space debris flying around that, you know, we have to kind of worry about. So that's it, though.

I'll worry about it. Everything's fine. Everything is fine. Okay? So why don't you just shut up? All right? And I did get an email yesterday, and I'm kind of putting this in two categories as an email to chewing the fat at the blaze.com. And a kind of a joke of the day.

because the email comes from Wahid Marjoru. W-A-H-I-D-M-A-J-R-O-O-H. It's not the email address that it comes from. The name on the email address is Wahid Majuru. It comes from S-Cochash. I guess it's I-S-C-C-C-E-S-C-C-E-S-C-C-E-S-C-E-C-H. Hello. I am Mr. Wahid Amajaru from Afghanistan.
