Clark Beaters, this is our show and tell. This is our extra nugget of joy on reasons to be joyful. Share, what brings you joy, please? It's funny, you should say that. I was, because it just came back into my life again recently. Years ago, not years, yeah, it was years. It was 1986. I went to India.

And I was sitting with these people who study yoga. and they were meditating and they were all wrapped up in something like this. A white shawl. Oh. And I was asked to bring it in, so I bought in my... I love that you brought it in, your white shawl. May I have a look at your white shawl? Thank you.

And when I wrap myself around in that and I just sit there and it's like a tent and only my head is sticking out, it just feels so comforting. It feels like my binky. Something that just comforts you. Yeah. That brings you joy and makes you feel calm. Absolutely. Absolutely.

And so it's been a while since I had that. But when I was asked to bring something like that in, I thought, you know. It's very clean. You've had that a long time? Yeah, I have that a long time. I'm very impressed. I was about to, my son had gone off to Miami.

this morning and I wasn't even thinking and my wife came up and she threw that and said oh oh yes yes yes I've got to take that with me so she was about to give it to him no she wasn't about to give it but we were all

occupied with all sorts of things and she put this on the on the bed this is what I mean this is why this is special wow so it just happened that she put it on the bed It's just like it's saying, take me with you.

I'm your favorite blanket. Oh, take it everywhere. You can use that in the one-man show as well. I know I said that the other day, and I'm saying it again today. When you do a one-man show, maybe you can walk on with the white blanket over you. Oh, that would be, you know, you're giving me the... We're getting, yeah, we got it. We got it.

Thank you so much, Clark Buntus.
