I'll have to stay current on my Mastercard if I wear this. [Laughter] I like it. Thank you. Thank you very much. Let me, before we close and I walk over here and we take a formal picture with the team, again thank the First Lady of Washington, DC, and Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, and all the DC city council members. I see at least three that I overlooked the first time. Would all the members of the DC city council who are here stand up? I think they're all here. We have a quorum in case any of you have a particular problem you'd like solved. [Laughter] And I'd also like to ask the student athletes and the coaches that I just honored in the Oval Office who have come here from around the country, who have done outstanding things. Many of them have overcome considerable personal obstacles to be outstanding athletes, outstanding students, and servants in their communities. I'd like to ask them to all stand please. Thank you very much. We're going to take a quick picture, and then we'll be adjourned. You can all stand up. We'll visit a little, have a little fun. Come on.
