but you're going to recognize the valuable asset that Mr. Allan Wade is to this particular body. So, you have done a great job and congratulations on this because it is long overdue. But anybody who sat on this dais here, we've already known that you one of the most 100 powerful people in this city. Congratulations, my friend. I can't believe you. Um I asked Brooke a minute ago, I said, "Am I getting fired?" Well, I mean, I can't live up to everything that everyone said. [snorts] But I do remember working with Louis Donaldson. He was one of the finest lawyers in the state. And he was honored here and they named a street after him. And he he said something that uh that was that I smiled about. He said, "You know, a lot of times people praise you for things you do. You don't We don't do it for that." He says, "But um when people start praising you the way you have praised me today, they think you're going to die." And his response was, "I ain't going to do it. I'll see y'all tomorrow at work. Thank you." We would like to take a picture with
