I don't have homework anymore.

My parents aren't telling me what I can eat and what I can't eat.

Well, I can be free to do what I want.

I'm a big boy.

I'm an adult in the world.

That's fun.

And we live in a country still, knock wood, while we can.

For the moment.

We have...

The best line in the Declaration of Independence, we have the right to pursue happiness.

What other country gives you that?

That's like, you know, there's many countries where if your dad was a cobbler, you're a cobbler.

And that's it.

If your dad works in the mine, you work in the mine.

So how lucky am I that I got to at least pursue whatever I wanted?

And I never took that for granted.

And I thought, don't waste this opportunity.

True.

uh my dad loved very soft scrambled eggs more than anything more than his family every morning are my eggs fluffy he would say my mother and she would say max i've been making you eggs for 60 years you don't think i know how you like your eggs why are you bothering me when i'm listening to the opera don't you know that i know how to cook your eggs leave me alone max i'm listening to the opera he says i don't know how you can hear anything with all this yelling but
