Duane: Joanie, Sheila and I are really blown away by you folks doing dinner for us! Joanie: Not at all, Duane, we're happy you could come. Duane: Well, it's really a great context for sharing energy! Joanie: Huh? Sheila: That's "Mellow Speak," Joanie. We've been studying Dr. Dan Asher's new book! Duane: For sure! Sheila: We're trying to learn Californian before we make the big move! Duane: You're flashing on my chest hairs, aren't you, Joanie? Joanie: Um... Sheila: That's okay, Joanie. You can be upright about it.
