I mean, we just started, it’s a new thing. We’re doing this for fun and we’re going to see where it goes.
Silicon Valley tends to fall in love with the new new thing.
If you want my answer about Donald Trump, you can Google it. It’s everywhere. They’ve got this new thing called Google.
I love singing and that’s kind of my new thing.
