00:34 We are starting our transplant.
00:37 Bone marrow transplant.
00:40 Wow. So when you show back up in the hospital, you're gonna have the hair gone,
00:45 and your son's gonna see that and say, "Wow, Mom, you did that for me."
00:49 He's gonna laugh.
00:51 And he'll need it, right? Everybody needs it. But you know what? You look beautiful.
00:55 So that's not a laughing matter. So congratulations. You look fantastic.

01:19 We've still got hats. You can come see me. You can come see Mark.
01:23 You can see any of the stylists. Stylist eyes.
01:27 Multiple hairdressers that may be up here.
01:29 Any of them. They'll be happy to take your money. We're gonna count it up.
01:33 Hopefully here in the next, I'd like to say another hour and a half, hopefully by that time,
01:39 we can get Kathy bald.
01:41 George Graham, if you're in the building, I'm calling you out.
01:45 I know you. I know who you are and what you do, and I know you have money, George.
01:51 So I at least want $1,000 from you.
01:55 I know you. You can afford $1,000, George.
02:02 Whoever you may be, the ATM is over in the restaurant by the buffet.
02:06 By the way, folks, if you haven't had the buffet, it's only $5.
02:09 And let me tell you, it's a tasty, tasty buffet of all of your favorite starches you could ever like.
02:17 There's hot dogs, mini corn dogs, mac and cheese, chicken fingers, and then at the very end of it, apples.
02:23 Why? Because apples are healthy for you.
02:25 But if you go over there, you can see Nat over on this side, or you can see Krista over on this side.
02:31 What we have to carry.
02:33 Upstairs in the 21 and over area, we got Patrick up there working the bar up there.
02:38 So some of you need a little bit of encouragement, a little bit of liquid courage.
02:42 You guys see Patrick upstairs.
02:44 Got the juice bar back over here.
02:48 The band is going to be coming up soon.
02:52 What else is going on?
02:54 We got some firemen coming in. They're going to get their head shaved.
02:57 A couple of fire trucks just pulled up out front.
03:00 Ladies. Wait, wait, let's try that.
03:03 Hey, ladies, there are firemen going to be in here, ladies.
03:08 See? That's the way it works.
03:11 Soon to be all on fire.
03:14 Down here is Red. Red works in Emanuel. Is that right?
03:17 That's correct.
03:18 Red, you have some long hair there. What do you do in Emanuel?
03:23 I'm donating it to the Locks of Love and the library is coming.
03:28 All right. Terrific. Thank you for spreading the word there.
03:31 The Locks of Love. It's quite a change from going from long hair.
03:35 No offense to any motorcycle owners. We got biker hair.
03:39 You own a bike?
03:41 I knew it. He had biker hair. So now you're going to be going out on the road.
03:45 Hey, you know what? Biker bald isn't bad either.
03:48 It makes you faster.
03:49 It makes you faster. Less wind resistance.
03:52 All right, Red. Congratulations and thank you very much.
03:55 Okay.
03:58 All right. Here come the firemen.
04:05 They're here to inspect the electrical outlets for the chamber.
04:10 As I heard, they are working overtime.
04:14 Here we go.
04:17 Wow, this is terrific.
04:20 I'll talk to you first because you've got the longest hair.
04:23 What, the chief said you get a cut or you're out of here?
04:26 The chief said I'll give you money.
04:28 Hey, all right. You guys, are you really raising money for St. Paul?
04:32 Yeah, actually we just started today and we raised a couple hundred.
04:36 All right. And shaving your head. What's your name?
04:38 My name is Gary.
04:39 Gary?
04:40 Gary Palmer.
04:42 All right, man. Matt, you don't have a lot to lose up here.
04:45 It looks like you're keeping high and tight anyway.
04:47 You look kind of marine-ish.
04:49 So you're probably getting back to what you're used to, huh?
04:51 And over here is?
04:53 Sam.
04:54 Sam. All right. Do they allow goatees in the fire department?
04:56 Slightly.
04:57 Soul patches?
04:58 Yeah. What is this here? Soul patch brothers.
05:01 All right. All right. Let's give it up for the Portland Fire Department.
05:06 [Applause]
05:09 Are all of you guys coming up here? Are all of you?
05:13 There's a little one that looks like he's already been in a couple of them already.
05:17 So you're the three representatives?
05:20 Yeah.
05:21 All right.
05:22 [Laughter]
05:25 Matt, on the end, he looks like he's going to win.
05:27 Yeah, I know.
05:28 I lost a bet last night.
05:31 I'm going to guess the three newest members of the fire department.
05:34 No.
05:36 No.
05:37 You know what? If this is hazing, they have it too easy.
05:40 [Laughter]
05:42 [Indistinct conversations]
05:57 We have an open chair out here if someone would like to step up.
06:02 Sam.

06:29 I think it's great what you guys did.
06:32 Not only do you raise money, you're going to be walking around, you'll be balled together.
06:37 Some of you, I don't know why that man's in line.
06:41 He's just taking up space.
06:43 He doesn't need it.
06:44 [Laughter]
