00:00Go, go, go!
00:20It's an old tradition.
00:22Unfortunately, it's getting less popular.
00:25Or it's losing its identity.
00:27But I hope that there will always be an excuse,
00:31like on the 4th of July,
00:32when everyone gathers around each other
00:34to laugh and have a good time.
00:50There are a lot of economic problems.
00:52But I hope that in this pandemic,
00:56we can all have a good time.
01:01I hope that this holiday, this year,
01:06will get rid of all the problems.
01:10I hope that good things will happen to everyone.
01:22Happy Holidays!
