So good, how are you?
Yes.
I try and be on time.
I used to be the reverse and then change my act.
I was working with an actor who has to remain nameless, who was always late.
Always late.
Guy flew and he said he'd pick me up.
No, don't pick me up.
I'll get there.

And as a kid, I was looking across down the hill at that.
And then at one point you were looking back at home.
It was almost if you drew a straight line.
