Hi, I'm Fred. Hi, my name's Mike and if you're sitting there watching this tape smoking your cigarette,
N.C.
well, hit the fast forward button because I don't smoke and I don't like people who do smoke
N.C.
I'm not afraid to get sand on my tuxedo if you're not afraid to let the wind mess your
N.C.
hair up a little bit when I take the top down. Perhaps even a, a nice bath with some champagne
