And I'd like to use my many, many years of experience to help them because I believe they're on the right track, but I can really contribute to this entity. And then this is probably a fun factor too. Is this going to be fun?

Absolutely. I am always amazed at how people try to specialize so early in their career. We've got kids now trying to be an engineer when they're in the sixth grade. It's great that somebody thinks they know what they want to do. I have no idea. Maybe I'm the exception, but I don't think most of us are mature enough even throughout high school to truly know what things will excite us.

the rest of our life. So, I encourage more breadth of knowledge and understanding and I've become a bit of a junkie about the more I learn, the more I can do. So, I'm just passionate about learning more stuff because I find it's interesting.

I can go anywhere in the world now and mix in different cultures very comfortably because I've learned about those cultures and I've learned about the people from those cultures. It makes it far more interesting to travel when you know what you're dealing with. It's not just taking pictures of recognizable buildings and monuments and things.

It's really, really mixing with people and getting to know them. And when you're doing that, if you can talk about... Flying airplanes, that's one of their passions. Or music, it just makes it even a richer experience. And I think anyone can do that.

If you were to say where would you go if you had a preference, I'd say, well, tell me what you're going to let me do. If I'm going for food, I'd probably go to France. Because the restaurants are fabulous. If I'm going for relaxation and killer beaches, I'd probably go to Thailand. I love the Thai culture and I love the beaches there and the food and the people are so sweet.

If I wanted to just have fun, I'd probably go rent a car and blast around the streets of the southern coast of France, the Amalfi Coast in Italy. If I want to go to a show and see theater, I'd probably go to London. There's so much richness out there. Anyway, this is the lightning round. I got to stop.

I listen to everything. And this is the problem. She talked about time. There's not enough time in my life to listen to everything I want to listen to. Last evening, I was former chairman of the Dallas Symphony. Last evening, I listened to Mozart, cello and violin. Today, I'm going to speak at a school and I'll be introduced to Snoop Dogg's Drop It While It's Hot. That's a bit of a range there.

Yeah. Two things. I was working at McDonald's and I had two interesting career opportunities. One was a guy, I don't know who he was, but he was this kind of thuggy looking guy. And he used to call me Jimmy. Jimmy, got a deal for you. Come to work for the boss. Come work for the man. We'll take care of you, Jimmy. Be an interesting life. And this is up in the Northeast. And

I kind of knew what he wanted me to do. And he's like, hey, Jimmy, you're going to make a lot of money, Jimmy. I'm really glad I didn't get on that path. I was right out of The Sopranos. You know, I could have been in one of those bad movies. So that was one. Thank you. But no, I don't think I don't think I need to meet the boss at the same time.
