I want everybody to know there is breaking news, and you are going to see something exciting on the floor of the House tomorrow. First of all, Go Astros. The big orange is rolling into Atlanta. And I know the red, white, and blue is in Atlanta, called the Braves. But we are coming in because there is nothing more meteoric than the Astros. And breaking news, we will be on the floor tomorrow with some exciting challenges. Go Astros, all the way to the World Series. But I don't mind accepting a challenge, and tomorrow I think we will have some folks from Atlanta and Georgia and some folks from Texas and Houston on the floor tomorrow with some breaking news. Go Astros. ____________________
