And then I get the idea, maybe that's the way it's supposed to taste. So I just put more sugar in it, right? And I just keep mixing it up, mixing it up, mixing it up. And so I go outside, I put this, had this little table, I set this little table up at the base of her porch, and I put this little sign up, lemonade, five cents, and the lemonade pitcher looked beautiful. I mean, it looked beautiful.

It had like a little sweat on it. I mean, it's just perfect. Well, this is back during the days, back during the late 50s, when the insurance guys, life insurance guys would walk debit routes, right?

So this guy, his name is Mr. Hill, H-I-L-L, and he's got this little pork pie hat on. He's got his sports coat slung over his shoulder, got his tie undone. He's walking, he's squatting like a hog, right? So he says to me, he goes, and kid, I says, he says, man, can I use... Can I use this today?

So I fixed him a lemonade, and he gives me a dime, told me to keep the change, and I couldn't believe my luck. So he takes and he knocks this lemonade back, and he seems to wave. And he's waving it around. His eyes bulge. He spits his lemonade out in the street. And he goes, that's good as the worst fucking lemonade I've And he goes storming away. I thought, maybe it just isn't that bad.

She buys a cup of lemonade, takes it over home, comes back and says, my mother says you have to give me my money back. So I gave her money back, and same thing, and then nobody would come near my lemonade stand. So a guy comes over. Later, my mother comes home, and she says, what are you doing?

I said, I'm selling lemonade. She said, you're selling lemonade. I said, yeah. She said, how did you make it? And I showed her. I said, I took the lemon bottle and I poured it in the thing. She goes, I keep vinegar in that bottle. Oh, shit. So I made lemonade with vinegar. And she helped me make a better lemonade that actually tasted good. Nope, weren't already done. Yeah.
