Sherri Lynn:
Have you ever wished you could know what the future held before you got there? What if you were given the gift of knowledge before you even began your journey? Now, I’ve been thinking about that because I made a lot of stupid mistakes when I was younger, and I wish I had someone to say, “Don’t go down that road. Go down this one.”
I’m Sherri, and welcome to From the Eyes of Wisdom, where we are pairing an experienced elder from CRISTA Senior Living with a passionate King’s High School student ready to launch into the world. And while these conversations won’t tell the future exactly, they did reveal a lot we weren’t expecting about how to live life well. Are you ready? I can’t wait for you to hear this.
Welcome to From the Eyes of Wisdom. I am Sherri Lynn and I am so happy to have here with me Dwight and Ethan. We’re going to have a great discussion a little bit towards the performing arts side. Ethan, you are an actor. Is it okay to call you that?
Ethan:
Sure, you can [inaudible 00:01:17].
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, because you just got casted in… Tell us the big news here.
Ethan:
So my school, we’re doing Beauty and the Beast, and I just got casted as Gaston.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah, very nice. Congratulations. Which is a big thing, because I was watching your pre-interviews, and it seemed like from the age of nine till now you’ve played nothing but dads. He was typecast [inaudible 00:01:42]. He was dad here, and dad there, and dad here, and dad there, and dad there, right?
Ethan:
[inaudible 00:01:46].
Sherri Lynn:
So now this is good, right? You excited about it?
Ethan:
Definitely, yeah.
Sherri Lynn:
When did you know you wanted to be in the performing arts?
Ethan:
I was in a play in fifth grade, and then I was Sherlock Holmes in that one.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah, yeah.
Ethan:
But on the day of the play, I couldn’t make it because I got sick, so that was pretty sad.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. Okay.
Ethan:
But then in seventh grade, my friend, she told me, “Hey, you should do this thing. It’s called CYT. It’s called Christian Youth Theater.”
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Ethan:
And then from seventh grade to eighth grade, I’m pretty sure, I did CYT, and that was a lot of fun. And then through that, I think that’s when I found out that I do really like performing arts and I like the community in it.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. Okay. Dwight, let’s go a little bit into your story from the beginning because, I don’t know if everyone can see, I’m holding here, if you’re listening to the podcast, it’s a top.
Dwight:
A spinning top.
Sherri Lynn:
Spinning top. Tell me how the spinning top got into your life so prominently.
Dwight:
I grew up in Northern Minnesota, and right across from a log church, which played a big role in my life, and it was part of a small denomination from there.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And so the president of the denomination was very interested in young people.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And he had grown up in Chicago. And as a boy there, he had played with wooden tops, and he was very good.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And he thought, “What can I do to reach kids?” And so he got his tops out and he put some Bible lessons to them, and that’s where I first ran into it. I was going to Bible camp. He would do a demonstration for us, so everybody had to learn how to do it.
Sherri Lynn:
Everyone had to learn how to-
Dwight:
Yeah.
Sherri Lynn:
And he put Bible lessons to a spinning top.
Dwight:
Yep.
Sherri Lynn:
That’s worth pulling back out as a Bible tool, if anyone’s listening.
Dwight:
You see it’s got a point.
Sherri Lynn:
It’s got a point on the bottom.
Dwight:
Bottom. And that’s the most important part of that top. And when it’s lined up and going in the right direction, everything works fine. It’s the same with our lives. If we’ve got a point in them and we’re on target, our lives are going to be in order.
Sherri Lynn:
Hey, that’s nice, all right.
Dwight:
I borrowed a lot of his material. The little denomination also started a Bible college.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And when I was finishing up there… The Donald F Duncan Company, if you’ve ever had a yo-yo, they’re the makers of them.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
They decided to promote tops and then they looked around for anybody that could spin them.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And there were a couple of us up there, and so they hired me, and so I worked for them as a top spinner.
Sherri Lynn:
Is this in an effort to sell them?
Dwight:
Yes.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
Yeah. They decide they have a new marketing plan, they would do commercials. Up to that, they only used demonstrators.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And then they would send us out to a city, they’d put some commercials on television, and then we would go out and play with the kids. We’d run contests for them, and then many mornings we would end up in the TV station of that city. So that’s where I got to be.
Sherri Lynn:
How did someone see Dwight and say, “I bet you he not only can spin a top…” Because it’s one thing to be able to spin a top. It’s another thing to have a performance essence to yourself that someone says, “I bet you he can make other people want to spin tops,” that he’s entertaining enough to make people lean in while he’s doing it. What was it about you, your personality, that they saw that said, “Hey, I bet you he’d be good at this”? Because it is performance, right?
Dwight:
Yeah, oh, every time you went out, you were doing a performance. At the very beginning, I wasn’t very good, because I had learned on little old wooden tops and they were doing everything on plastic, so I had to learn it all over again. And the kids were better than I was, but as time went on, I learned it. And now and then a kid would say, “Oh, I saw you on Cowboy Bob’s program this morning.” And so there was some continuity to it.
Sherri Lynn:
So I’m still trying to get what made somebody look at you. What were you doing that someone said, “Dwight is the man that’s going to sell the tops”?
Dwight:
I did a demonstration here last fall at U Press for the kids there.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And when they got done, one of the people said to me, “We just expected you to come and do a couple of tricks.”
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
But I had put together a whole performance in a sense where I had projected out to them, I drew in the kids, I drew in the audience. And my top spinning was the point, but what I was doing was, well, at that point, I was preaching a little to them, and it worked.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
So I guess I wouldn’t say I had a lot of acting experience, but every time I went out to spin tops, I became Mr. Spin Top-
Sherri Lynn:
Mr. Spin Top, okay.
Dwight:
… And that was my personality.
Sherri Lynn:
Are you going to show us how to spin it?
Dwight:
Well, I’m sorry I didn’t bring a string today.
Sherri Lynn:
You didn’t… Oh, it needs a string.
Dwight:
So it needs…
Sherri Lynn:
No.
Dwight:
I can show you a picture of me in my-
Sherri Lynn:
I have a picture here, because I was going to ask you, would you consider yourself a performer?
Dwight:
Of the [inaudible 00:07:08]. Oh, the old days.
Sherri Lynn:
But anybody with the headshot that I’m going to show right now, and you guys listening, I’m so sorry you can’t, but I have a picture of Mr. Spin Top. Do you remember when this was taken?
Dwight:
Oh, yeah. I had just started working. So it’s been a couple of years ago.
Sherri Lynn:
Oh, man. What age are we talking here?
Dwight:
I was 22.
Sherri Lynn:
22.
Ethan:
Wow.
Sherri Lynn:
Look at that, Ethan. Because Ethan, if you want to be in the business, you’re going to have to have one of these.
Ethan:
I do.
Dwight:
That’s right, you do.
Sherri Lynn:
Do you have headshots already?
Ethan:
Not professionally.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. All right, all right. So you know, you have to have one.
Ethan:
Yeah.
Sherri Lynn:
And you’re looking pretty spry there, Dwight, yeah.
Dwight:
I was. I was on it.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. And then Mr. Spin Top, we have a nice flyer here that, I don’t know, and you guys can’t see it, sorry, on podcast.
Dwight:
I did most of my top spinning in churches, so I had to self-promote myself.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
And so my brother-in-law was a pretty good cartoonist and he did this for me, and I did a lot…
Sherri Lynn:
[inaudible 00:08:06] the shoulders.
Dwight:
I paced them in a lot of places.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah? Something you said in your pre-interview, Dwight, that I loved, you said, “God never wastes our talents and abilities,” meaning this is something that you can do, and maybe you didn’t make a career of it, but God used it, right? Because it soun- Tell a little bit about your story. Seems like you had a lot of twists and turns in a lot of different places you went. And it seems like you would go back to the spin top and use it to maybe if you needed to raise funds for something or, if you needed to speak or preach, as a tool. Tell us about how you incorporated this performance thing that you had, how it kept coming back in other parts of your life.
Dwight:
In another generation, there was a good baseball player by the name of Yogi Berra.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay, I know the name.
Dwight:
And he had a lot of his own maximums, if you’ve ever read about them, kind of ridiculous things. One of them was, when you come to a fork in the road, take it. And it sounds a little ridiculous at times, but as I look back on my life, there’s been a lot of forks. And one could think they’re all going to be wasted, but God doesn’t waste anything. I had never in my life, when I was younger, thought that I would ever do anything with spin tops, but they turned out, as you say, to be one of the major branches in my life.
Now, as a business, Duncan got in a court battle over the word yo-yo, lost it, and the company went out of business. So I-
Sherri Lynn:
So Duncan was the one that was employing you.
Dwight:
It was my employ. And at that point, I was done spinning tops. And the Lord put another fork in the road, and that’s how we came out here to Seattle from Minnesota to finish some schooling. Because at the back of all of this, I felt God was calling us to missions of one kind or another, and I needed more Bible training to make that work. And so He brought us out here. And I ended up doing some teaching in between and other things, but, as you say, He never wasted any of it.
Sherri Lynn:
The reason why I love that, Ethan, is because the profession you have chosen… Before I get into that, how do your parents feel about performing?
Dwight:
They don’t.
Sherri Lynn:
Dwight say yeah. How do your parents feel about performing arts is where you want to have a concentration?
Ethan:
They’re really supportive about it actually, so I’m very thankful for that.
Sherri Lynn:
Hold on.
Ethan:
And then my dad said something where it was like, “If you’re good at something, someone will always pay for it.” So if I get good at acting…
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah. Well, I love what Dwight’s saying here, and I think it’s wisdom that is good for you, which is, if I’m thinking of it the right way, Dwight, you never know what form that will take.
Dwight:
Exactly, exactly.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, yeah, because it’s taken many forms in your life, right?
Dwight:
Many, many forms [inaudible 00:11:03].
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, I mean, you had international travel too. Where? You were in…
Dwight:
Sweden.
Sherri Lynn:
Sweden. I was going to say Switzerland, okay.
Dwight:
Yeah, the tops took me to Sweden.
Sherri Lynn:
But how did that happen?
Dwight:
Well, to work with a mission, you had to raise your own support. I don’t sing. I don’t dance. So how do you get into churches to speak to people? I became Mr. Spin Top. And they would let me come in and do my performance, and then I could share about we’re getting ready to go to Sweden.
Sherri Lynn:
Right.
Dwight:
And so the Lord used tops at fork in the road to get us to Sweden.
Sherri Lynn:
See?
Dwight:
We were there for 14 years.
Sherri Lynn:
Wow. So you’re putting these up, right?
Dwight:
Yep.
Sherri Lynn:
And people come, and then you do this, because I would come. If I saw this and they said 7:00 on Sunday, I would be there at 6:45, if I saw this flyer. So I think that that’s something that is… And I am saying this, Ethan, from someone who is in performing arts and does it and has done it. What Dwight is saying is so important, is that you are open to all the avenues God has for you, right? Did you feel calling, God is calling me here, or here, or here, or did you feel like here are opportunities and, wherever I end up, God is going to be with me there?
Dwight:
Well, I felt the Lord from the time I was a young boy that missions was where He was sending me, but the form changed all the time.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah.
Dwight:
I wanted to be a missionary airplane pilot. Well, I found out my eyesight wasn’t good enough, so that went out, but He put me in a different way. My dad had always been a teacher. I was interested in teaching. That seemed like a possibility, and so I prepared to be a teacher. And God used that then as one route. And then, of course, the tops came along. So the Lord put them together, and so I ended up the 14 years in Sweden as a Bible teacher over there.
Sherri Lynn:
Wow.
Dwight:
So you never know how He’s going to use what He puts in your life. I just say you got to keep moving, be involved in things, and then the doors will open. A ship in harbor is not going anywhere. You’ve got to get someplace where He can use you.
Sherri Lynn:
Ooh, I like that.
Ethan:
[inaudible 00:13:21].
Sherri Lynn:
Ethan, any questions based on that for Dwight?
Ethan:
When you were in Sweden, did you have an idea as like, “Okay, this is what God called me for”?
Dwight:
I did. And I have to say we, because I had my family with us. And one of the surprising things I found there was I thought my major call was going to be a teacher, but I found out after a short while that there were other things that were just as important. We worked with camps. We did other things there. I did some teaching. I taught English so that we could use more books. There aren’t a lot of theology books in Swedish. And so God used all kinds of things that I had never even considered of. My wife ended up running the kitchen. She had never thought about that in her life. She did a fantastic job.
So God can use all kinds of things in your life if you’re willing to be used on there. And I think if you’re going to go into some kind of a media ministry or something, there are going to be different avenues that keep popping up. And you may have to make some choices in them, but I kept feeling that God was taking us in the direction of missions. And tops were a distraction, teaching was a distraction, other things, but in the end, God opened the door so that we could end up there in Sweden at the Scandinavian Bible Institute.
Sherri Lynn:
I love that. The fact that God doesn’t waste anything, the fact that He is everywhere you are and that He is willing to use you wherever you are is such a wonderful vision of wisdom that He’s giving you. Because it’s easy to get discouraged, right?
Dwight:
Absolutely.
Sherri Lynn:
Do you remember any specific times where you’re like, “Why…” You’re chuckling, so I guess you… Where you’re like, “Why am I here? Did I miss, God? What’s going on?” Do you remember any specific times of discouragement?
Dwight:
Well, we signed up to leave in 1970. That seems a century ago.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, that’s before I was born [inaudible 00:15:34], I mean, that’s really way back then, yeah.
Dwight:
And [inaudible 00:15:38] that’s right, that’s right. And I thought we would be ready to go in a year or two. So I started teaching school to support us while we were raising support, and nothing happened for… I taught five years. In fact, I taught right over here at Madrona School here for three years.
Sherri Lynn:
Wow.
Dwight:
Finally, one of my friends said to me, “Are you really going to Sweden?” And I said, “Oh yeah, we’re going to go.” He said, “Why then are you teaching?” So at the end of that school year, I quit teaching. But for those five years, there was a lot of discouragement there, because everything happened so slowly and we wanted it right now and get out of here, but God had other plans. And He-
Sherri Lynn:
What would you tell Ethan? Because you’re going to have slow times.
Ethan:
Yeah, I know.
Sherri Lynn:
There’s going to be times where you’re waiting for that phone to ring. I think I got the part. I don’t know if I got the part, I think I got the job. I don’t know if I got the job. I think… All of that comes with it. About the way you wait maybe or how you handle the discouragement, is there any encouragement or wisdom you would give there on how you handle it when you’re in it? Because you would say it’s inevitable, wouldn’t you?
Dwight:
Yeah, it is inevitable. I keep saying, you got to keep moving. You think in the direction that God’s given you. So if you have to paint flats, maybe that for a couple of months until something opens up, but you keep moving along in your field as much as you can and trust that God is going to open the next door for you, and so it gives you a fork in the road to move on. And that’s easy to say, but at the time it can be very discouraging.
Sherri Lynn:
Did you have children at that time or it was just you and your wife?
Dwight:
No, we had three children by the time [inaudible 00:17:33].
Sherri Lynn:
Really?
Dwight:
So then you start thinking about them too, and where should they go to school and things like that, but God worked that out. And once He had opened the door and we had our support so we could go to Sweden, God took care of the next steps for us.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah. I think it’s probably important, not just the waiting, but the way you wait.
Dwight:
Absolutely.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, you know what I mean? I know for me in times where it’s like I’m waiting, but I got a whole attitude. You know what I mean? With God, with everybody, because it’s discouragement. Discouragement means I have lost my courage, and it’s difficult, right? What about the people you surround yourself with? Because you had a friend who came to you and said, “Are you going? If so, then why are you…” So what about that?
Dwight:
I think friends are very important. And especially those that are in your field I think can be a real help to you, both as mentors and friends and encouragers. When you’re working, as we were, within the Christian area, there’s a large force that kind of surrounds you and helps you. There’s a couple of pastors here in Seattle who really made it possible. In the background, I didn’t know, they said, “Would you help the Paulsons?” And they were the ones who got the push on that I had nothing to do with. They took care of it. So God even does that for you.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah. Works things out and you’re not even paying attention.
Dwight:
Absolutely.
Sherri Lynn:
Yeah, that’s… What is it? I know my Bible. I promise I know my Bible. It’s Joseph. That’s it. That the Pharaoh is somewhere talking about him and he doesn’t even know it, right? Like he’s in jail. And talk about discouragement, like you’re in jail, you’re a young guy, you didn’t do anything wrong, you’re waiting in jail, and then out of nowhere the Pharaoh is somewhere else talking about, “They’re talking about you somewhere. It’s coming, if you could just be okay while that’s coming.”
Dwight:
It’s coming.
Sherri Lynn:
So I think that’s important. Ethan, for you, somebody asked a… We were just kind of spitballing about what we wanted to ask, and someone brought up a really wonderful question that I hadn’t thought about. This is fresh and new. I’m trying it out on you. You’re an actor; you can think on your feet. I’m going to let you answer, and then, Dwight, I’ll let you give whatever wisdom you want to get to it, all right?
Ethan:
Awesome.
Sherri Lynn:
What do you wish you knew about your future?
Ethan:
I wish I knew if this was the path actually.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah.
Ethan:
I wish I knew that it would be secure. Because I want to know that it’s secure, so I just keep on going with it. Because the future’s uncertain, right? So I have no idea what it’s going to be, I just want the confirmation.
Sherri Lynn:
Right. Ah. That this is the path and that… When you say secure, you mean financially secure?
Ethan:
Yeah, yeah.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. All right. Dwight?
Dwight:
Yeah. I think I have wished that most of my life. That’s part of the Christian life. I don’t think that God ever gives you that final bit of security that we’re always searching for. I think He gives it to us in the moment, and He gives it into different ways, but I don’t know if we ever totally, even in retirement, if that’s the f- I don’t think there’s a final solution to it. There’s always something that comes along that requires your faith and you need to take the next step.
Sherri Lynn:
Because, I don’t know, if we had it, would we seek Him?
Dwight:
Yes, would we seek Him? We wouldn’t need Him.
Sherri Lynn:
We wouldn’t, would we? I don’t think so. I mean, we wouldn’t, would we? If we didn’t have that little bit of uncertainty like, “I’m not sure this is going to work out,” we wouldn’t seek Him, because we’d have a certainty, and then what would we need faith for, right?
Dwight:
Right, exactly.
Sherri Lynn:
That is a really good point. So let’s say someone could come to you from the future and they’re like, “Hey, I’m from the future.”
Ethan:
Okay.
Sherri Lynn:
And you’d be like, “Whoa, y’all wearing that in the future?” Okay, we’ll get that all out of the way. And then they say, “So I want to let you know, the acting thing is cool and you do okay, but you’re not really making a living out of it,” right? What would you then hope the living would be?
Ethan:
I think I would want to teach music production, because I like making music.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah, okay.
Ethan:
And I took a class on that last year, on how to make beats and then all of that stuff, and then I really enjoyed it, and I think I would like to teach that.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. Great, all right. And the person would be like, “Great, it’s going to work out for you,” and they get back in the time machine and they leave. That’s good, all right. So I think that, along with that and just the overall things that you want to do, your industry that you’re looking for in particular, collaboration is so important. And so we’ve talked about this, I’ve talked about this in the other interviews with people, so I want to get your ideas on it, Dwight, about working with people, difficult people or-
Dwight:
Yes.
Sherri Lynn:
You’ve had some difficult people you had to work with, Dwight?
Dwight:
I think whatever field you’re in, you’re going to run into people that the two of you don’t see eye to eye on anything.
Sherri Lynn:
How have you handled it? First of all, can you remember a specific situation where you’re like, “This person, we’re never going to see eye to eye. It just feels this roughness, this tension is just going to be here”? Do you remember that?
Dwight:
We had a dear lady in Sweden with us who, she was friction with everybody. So I was not unique.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay.
Dwight:
But I think-
Sherri Lynn:
Sister Friction, we’ll call her Sister Friction.
Dwight:
Yeah, so friction there.
… That it helps at times to… Well, in this case we ended up having to work together a little bit, and that kind of broke it at that point. I won’t say it was over, but it made things a lot easier, and I think maybe we even ended up friends at that point.
Sherri Lynn:
How was your posture towards her? Was it like you talked to her a lot, you didn’t deal with her a lot. Did you have to go away and kind of still your mind away and come back? How did you handle dealing with her on a day-to-day basis? Because he’s going to have this. And I will tell you, specifically from theater, good God from heaven, it is something, right?
Dwight:
Oh no, you have much more.
Sherri Lynn:
Because now you’re adding ego and everyone thinks that they are the star. Even if they have two words, not even a line, they got two words, they are the reason why the whole audience has come to see. And just that feeling of, however many people are on the stage, that many egos in a room, and including your own, because we all have them, right? So I’m wondering how you managed Sister Friction every day, so that he has some sort of daily idea of how to handle that with wisdom.
Dwight:
I think you pray before you go. And truthfully, from other experiences, sometimes it is very difficult, but you have to deal with it. And I think your situation is much more critical than anything that I was involved in. When I taught, I was basically by myself. For work in Sweden, you’re working with a good group of people and the tension is a lot less than the daily sort of thing that you’re going to deal with, because you’re dealing, as you say, with a different set of egos than I ever had to deal with. I think God gives grace though.
Sherri Lynn:
Ah, yeah.
Dwight:
And sometimes you have to work around them. And to some extent, that’s what I did with this lady, I just had to… We worked together, but I made sure that it was going to come out on my side.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. And that your paths didn’t cross more than they needed to probably.
Dwight:
Yeah, exactly.
Sherri Lynn:
Yes, that you had to manage it that way. Last question before we wrap up. I always have the young person write down a word of advice. Now, this is something that Ethan is going to take with him to college. He’s going to be in a dressing room somewhere and have this piece of paper with him. He’s going to be in his first apartment with his actor friends. There’s going to be 90 of them in one bedroom apartment in New York, and he’s going to wait and, “Oh! That’s right, Dwight said this.” What word of wisdom would you give him that he needs for life as a young man launching out all the things that he wants to do, all the wonderful dreams in his heart and in his mind? What’s the one word of advice you would give him? This is yours to write it down.
Dwight:
I really believe that the Lord, when He plants that vision in you, it’s something that He’s going to see through with you as well, and He has a way of doing it. When I talk about the fork in the road, they may come up, and you may have to work on some of the other things that you didn’t intend, but in the end, they are part of the solution. And I think too, God gives us a sense of peace about things. I really do. That has been my experience, that when I’m doing right and in his will and we’re on track, that there’s a sense of peace with that.
Sherri Lynn:
That’s good.
Dwight:
You can trust him in that part.
Sherri Lynn:
You can trust him. You can trust him. God gives a sense of peace and that you’re doing this together. I wish, I wish, I almost want to cry on that. I wish I would’ve known that at your age. I wish I would’ve known that it wasn’t all up to me. That he wants, wants to partner to walk through this life with me, and whatever’s fork in the road I’m taking, he’s not on this side, Like, “Oh, you know, made the wrong choice.” You know what I mean with me? He wants to do this life with me, and then he gives us grace and he gives us peace. That is good, Dwight. That is something to remember. Any other questions you have, Ethan?
Ethan:
No, I think we’re good.
Sherri Lynn:
Okay. How about you, Dwight? Anything else you want to say? That was really good.
Dwight:
I think we’ve covered a lot of it. Yeah. I’ll be praying for you, Ethan, as you go off.
Sherri Lynn:
Thank you. That’s wonderful. Thank you guys so much. I appreciate it. And I wish we’d have had that string… I woulda brought it with me. Dog gone it. I didn’t think about it. Next time, we’re just going to have just spinning tops. That’s it. As soon as the camera opens up, it’ll just be… do you have more than one?
Dwight:
Oh, I only have about 300.
Sherri Lynn:
