And essentially there was nothing you had to do.

And then the camera should pan the nursing home.

because that's the life people are living.

That's not what we want.

It's the challenge.

It's the possibility for mastering something, not having mastered it.

That's the essence of everything.

But you can.

I had this friend who lived in this very fancy building in New York.

Very, very.

And in this, because the building was so exclusive, you go in the elevator and there was actually an elevator operator.

And I thought, my goodness, you know, what a job that every day he's just going up and down the elevator.

It was wonderful because I watched how he actually did this.

I would go in and I'd say 33rd floor.

He would look at the numbers, turn around, and then turn his dial to see if he could get to the 33rd floor.

He made it a game.

And that's the way it stayed interesting.

And I think that I make virtually everything a game.

And that doesn't mean I don't take things seriously.

But when you think you know, there's no reason to tune in.
