I was speaking somewhere in one of the smaller towns of this country

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

at a wedding.

00:00:11 --> 00:00:25

And I mentioned the point system, if you know it, when you're getting married, look at the person you want to marry. And you give them points for everything they have. But you start off with the dean. If they have Dean an o'clock, you give them a one.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
