Cast

Frosty: A whiz kid, his high-tech know-how keeps the group online.

Camwhore: "Emily's friend", her mission is to capture video of the event.

Emily: Queen of trolls, she risks both life and limb on a plunge into the heart of darkness.

Pickle Man: Brave and daring hero, he protects Emily from certain peril.

Chris: Misshapen manchild, his disgusting nature seeps into the very recording of his voice.

Bob: Robert Chandler, the proud Internet lumberjack, yet also slave to the manchild.

Frosty: Okay... lock it?

Frosty: Okay-

Camwhore: Are you wearing a thong? With a-

Emily: Yeah.

Camwhore: That better be fuckin' tight.

Emily: It's tight.

Camwhore: That may pop out while you're walking around, while you're like-

Emily: I should be like-

Camwhore: Or a robotic vagina.

Emily: [laughs]

Camwhore: Say "It's my vibrator."

Emily: [laughs]

Camwhore: It's one of those things that you see taped to those- those hentai-

Frosty: Well, the thing is, Chris- if you said that to Chris, he would squeal.

Emily: [laughs] Ungh, ungh, ungh, ungh! Okay, if he get's, like, way too close to me, I'm just gonna be like- get my chair farther away.

Camwhore: [inaudible]

Emily: [laughs]

Camwhore: I really like your [inaudible]

Pickle Man: [laughs] Maybe Barb- Barbara can come.

Emily: Apparently, she doesn't leave the house anymore.

Pickle Man: No, I'm just [inaudible]

Emily: [laughs]

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Frosty: There- there are Barb candidates everywhere.

Emily: Yeah.

Frosty: No, no, no, no, no, no. But- but in all actuality, there should be no Barb; if there is Barb, I will shit myself.

Emily: If there is Barb, we're- we're done.

Camwhore: We're not showing up.

Frosty: Yeah.

Emily: Yeah.

Frosty: "You brought your mommy?"

Emily: I should be like, "No– just put that shit in the bag, and we're not doing anything today."

Camwhore: Yeah.

Frosty: Yeah.

Emily: That's it.

Camwhore: And you can call him and be like "You owe me a dire apology, and you're the… jack-off-"

Emily: No– I'm sure I'm gonna yell at him, and make him cry.

Frosty: Yeah.

Emily: And I'm gonna be like "Oh– I live in Clyde's playboy mansion now." [laughs]

Frosty: No– even better!

Emily: [laughs]

Camwhore: [aside] I'm waiting. I'm part of Clyde's playboy mansion.

Emily: Yeah.

Camwhore: I'm the janitor.

[all laugh loudly] Emily: Okay– let's go see if he's there.

Camwhore: You go see if he's there.

Emily: No! 'Cause- 'cause it's-

Pickle Man: [inaudible (but about "a girl")]

Emily: 'Cause I'm gonna make it like an entrance, like… "Hiii!"

Pickle Man: Did he say where [inaudible, presumably where he'll park his car, judging by Camwhore's response]

Emily: No. Like, he wants to be- he wants to meet in front of Chick-Fil-A, so…

Camwhore: Figures! But the general idea would be you park near where you wanna… go.

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Emily: [chuckles]

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Camwhore: What if that [inaudible]

Emily: [laughs]

Camwhore: [aside] [inaudible] Do you see those pile of balloons right there? Swear to God: it looks like a penis.

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Camwhore: The balloons. Right here.

Emily: Oh… [laughs]

Camwhore: It's a fuckin' penis.

[pause]

Camwhore: Nope.

Emily: Oh, okay.

[pause]

Emily: [sighs]

Camwhore: [sighs]

[pause]

Camwhore: There's that ugly bitch that looks like Hamster Girl… at Starbucks.

Emily: [chuckles]

Camwhore: She looks like Hamster Girl.

Pickle Man: Which one looks like Hamster Girl?

Camwhore: Right there. The only one that you can see working?

Pickle Man: Oh– over at Starbucks? You should see her with that hair off.

Camwhore: No, no, no. She looks like Hamster Girl. [inaudible]

Pickle Man: I'm telling you: you should see her with that hair off!

Camwhore: Oh– she don't have no hair?

Pickle Man: Um...

Camwhore: Oh– she has a fake-

Pickle Man: She has fake hair, or… she has no hair… or the hair back like this.

Camwhore: Well, yeah– I knew that.

Emily: Yeah.

Camwhore: I was gonna say: I don't- I guess she dyed her hair blond. 'Cause I remember seeing her with some ugly, strange-colored hair.

Target Acquired (03:13 - 04:43)

Frosty: There he is!

Emily: [startled] What?

Frosty: [unintelligible (but about "a jacket")]

Emily: Oh my God! [jokingly] Eject! Oh my God!

Frosty: Is your [inaudible] on? [unintelligible (but clearly about "a jacket" again)] Are you ready?

Emily: Yeah– I'm ready. [laughs nervously] This is gonna be my best acting moment ever.

Pickle Man: He can't see my face before I suit up.

Emily: Yeah– go, like, look, 'cause he has to get down first.

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Frosty: He'll realize later: that's what it was.

Camwhore: I don't feel bad.

Emily: Okay. Hopefully, he, like, won't come, like, around and- [inaudibly interrupted] Huh? I don't have my phone.

[pause]

Emily: Oh my God…

[pause]

Emily: If this goes all smoothly, I should get, like…

Pickle Man: [inaudible] Where do I sit… to, like, watch [inaudible]

Emily: Um, there's some benches, like… by the tables. [abruptly] Oh! Oh! Oh, no.

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Emily: Okay– there's some benches, like, nearby…

Pickle Man: Yeah?

Emily: Um, just sit and watch him [unintelligible] you need to go change or whatever.

Pickle Man: Okay. Well, I- I started the- I [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah.

Pickle Man: Okay. I'll [inaudible]

Emily: [exhales loudly] Yeah. Or just, like… kinda walk around and see if you can… see us.

The Green Mile (04:44 - 05:19)

Nothing but Emily's footfalls can be heard as she marches off to meet the manchild.

Meet the Parent (05:20 - 07:17)

Emily: Hi!

Chris: Hello! Emily?

Emily: Yeah! I'm Emily. So nice to meet you!

Chris: Hi, Emily. This is my father, Robert.

Bob: Hello.

Emily: Hello.

[pause]

Emily: I've started shopping a little bit.

Chris: That's alright.

Bob: You're from West Virgina?

Emily: Yeah... I used to live here for a while, but then, I-

Chris: [abruptly] Hey!

Emily: But then, I moved to-

Chris: Cute hat!

Emily: Yeah– I thought you might like it.

Chris: [laughs contentedly]

Bob: You go to school over there?

Emily: Yeah– University of West Virginia. My friend, uh, wanted to go to school there, and she's my best friend, so I have to… go with her everywhere! [laughs nervously]

Bob: That sounds like the best way to do things!

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Yeah. Hey, Emily– you mind, uh, a photo of you and me together?

Emily: Sure!

[pause]

Bob: What are you taking?

Emily: I'm doing journalism.

Bob: What?

Emily: Journalism.

Bob: Journalism?

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Ah! You wanna be a writer!

Emily: Yeah! [giggles] I did a lot-

Bob: He has a… half-brother who's- who lives in New York City… and, uh, does freelance writing and show reviews and things… for newspapers and magazines.

Emily: Is it- does he love it?

Bob: I guess.

Emily: [giggles again]

Bob: I haven't talked to him in years…

Emily: Yeah…

Chris: I can't this dang camera to work!

[pause]

Bob: Yeah– that's- I worked at, uh- I'm an engineer… and engineers never learn how to spell.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: I think very logically, but I-

Chris: Shoot! I got bad batteries in the camera.

Emily: [disappointed] Oh...

Bob: If I would- if I would write anything, half the words would be phonetically rather than the way we're… supposed to do.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: I got along fine… writing stuff… on my word processor… when I had a spell checker.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Without that, I'm [unintelligible, but clearly self-deprecating] [laughs heartily]

Emily: Did you like doing engineering?

Bob: Well... I- I had a real u-nique situation…

[pause]

Bob's Work History (07:18 - 16:58)

Bob: Look, uh… I'm- I'm really old.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Okay– to start with: I'm 81. And, uh, I came along before transistors.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Not- not [unintelligible] all the safe stuff we have now, but even before transistors… when we had vacuum tubes.

Bob: I, uh... got drafted after World War II. That's how old. But, uh... then, they put me in the Signal Corps, and they knew things I didn't know. They taught me how to install valve systems and switchboards and telephone poles. So, I found out: yeah– I'm pretty good at that. So, when I got out– 'course that was in 1947– I found out- now, I know that we had a deflation on our hands; I didn't know it then.

Bob: You couldn't get a job, so, I thought "Well, I got the G.I. Bill. I'll go to school."

Emily: Yeah– now, it's really hard to become an engineer.

Bob: Yeah– now, ya- I, uh-

Bob: I went to… a state [unintelligible] college to start with, 'cause I had the philosophy that if I went to a big school I'd be just… swallowed up.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: So, I went to a small school and took Pre-Engineering for two years, and that was the best thing I ever did, 'cause I wound up, uh- well, I got- I got through my two years of Pre-Engineering in small classes.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And also, I loved music, and I was in the band and everything. And I got in the symphony orchestra… and learned a lot about music while I was up there too.

Bob: And then, I went to Auburn, and then [unintelligible] talk about getting swallowed up!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Then, at that time, Auburn- which now has what: 30,000 students, or something? Auburn had about 5,000 students.

Bob: I got my Engineering degree. And then, when I got out, I said "Well, I'll, uh... I can do anything with relays and telephones and valve systems, and [inaudible]. I'm gonna work for Western Electric."

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: That seems logical, right?

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: [suddenly offended somehow] Hey!

Bob: Because they make, uh-

Chris: You- no– you listen to my father… because he's somethin'! Because I get some of my intelligence from him.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Especially my technological intelligence.

Bob: But anyway, I, uh- I went to work for them for 40 years, and, uh... at that point in time…

Bob: Uh, this is even before the Atlas missile… the ICBM.

Emily: Yeah. [laughs nervously]

Bob: Before the Korean War… and, uh- but, I- I found out they were building radar systems. Well, that was fine, but also, they had lots of government money, so they wanted some automatic test equipment. At that time, nothing was automatic. They had none!

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: So, that's what I went and built. [unintelligible] what I learned in the army, right?

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: So, I started working with the first automatic test equipment that we ever made. And then, GE heard about it… and they came down to [unintelligible] in North Carolina.

Bob: And- so, GE came down; they offered me a job… up in upstate New York. Cold country in Utica.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: And then, uh... I went down to build some automatic test equipment for the ICBM [unintelligible] Intercontinental Ballistic Missile.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Nobody knows how, 'cause we haven't done it before.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: We'd done some of this automatic test equipment down here. "Why don't you come up there?" "Well, okay!"

Bob: So, I went up there for three years and helped develop the, uh, automatic…equipment… for testing the missiles, and… all the guidance systems, and things… in the [unintelligible]

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: But- but I got- I was a soldier, true and tried, 'cause I was born in Texas and raised in Alabama.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And then, I was in North Carolina first. And then, I hit upstate New York, and I froze to death. [chuckles]

Emily: [laughs] Yeah, that must be really different! [laughs again]

Bob: Well, after three years, I said "I'm going back to somethin' [unintelligible]" Well, GE- I didn't know it then, but I had a real, natural draw… to the mountains.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And I knew about Roanoke, since I'd been in, uh, [unintelligible] So, I wanted to come back to Roanoke, and GE had plants there.

Bob: And… they were there developing- specializing in industrial automation. Except they didn't done any automation yet. They were just industrial-controlled.

Bob: So, I finagled a transfer back to Roanoke, and… I got there just at the time when they were startin'… to make… any kind of automation controls for engines.

Bob: So, I got into what they call "a new business area". And I got to do all the great things. All my- I- I really had it right. I was in the right places at the right time.

Emily: Yeah. [laughs politely]

Bob: Because I am very logically-inclined.

Emily: That doesn't really happen nowadays, with the economy…

Bob: Yeah– and I- I'm a logician.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Oddly enough, I never learned how a transistor even works… on records. But I use 'em all the time.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: I use 'em. I'm retired now, a long time. But… when I started out with this group, and the first thing we got into was trying to automate a steel mill… for rolling [unintelligible] steel for your cars.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Well, we did that. And then, I got into… how to roll papers so you could get Kleenex.

Emily: [giggles]

Chris: And, of course, y'know, he's the guy that designed the controls for all the plastic water machines, so without him at this time, you couldn't have the plastic for your glasses.

Bob: And- and then- then, I got into- I was in the new business area where we could do the first one… and then, somebody else would take over and do the others.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And-- and then, I got into managing a paper mill. But then, I got into the… industry of- of, uh, like [unintelligible] warehousing, automatic transition, like BART: Bay Area Rapid Transit.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Automatic railroads and all that kind of stuff. Automated a bunch of that. Then, I got into automating a bunch of mine [unintelligible] around the world.

Emily: You've been through a lot!

Bob: And then, I went to automating tanker ships, so you could run 'em from the bridge and have nobody downstairs.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Just someone else involved-

Chris: Want some water?

Emily: No, thank you.

Bob: And, uh... then, uh- then, um, I got into… I developed [unintelligible] I found out that there was very few people like me in the world that had this natural… inclination… for logic.

Bob: Anyway, like the ands, and ors, and the what-ifs, and the what-if-nots.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And then, I developed a system… called a [inaudible] that stands [unintelligible]that's an acronym.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Hardware-oriented Y2K pile of junk!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Similar fortune… was in… hardware.

Emily: Oh, okay.

Chris: Hey, everybody– I got [unintelligible]

Emily: Oh, thank you.

Bob: What this enables-

Chris: [unintelligible, but clearly addressing Emily]

Emily: [giggles] Thank you.

Bob: What this enables everybody to do- and me, too, but I was lazy…

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Was to write down on- on paper– and design on paper from the start– a sequence of parallel lines.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And up to that point, nobody had a way of writin' it down on paper.

Emily: [half-stifles a genuine laugh]

Bob: And they still don't, really! [unintelligible]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: But that [unintelligible] to mind, horse and buggy.

Bob: Elevator-type system that's over a 5,000 ft hole!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Then, I got into, uh, designing… scooter machines, which fused all the plastic around wires, and things like that…

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Scooters. And then, I got into... die-cast machines… and the machines automating them. They make things like carburetors, and cans, and whatever.

Bob: And then, I got into plastics… and even the plastics were [unintelligible] automating their machines. In the process, I ended up with about… two patents [unintelligible] in my name that they own. And all this… dumb stuff. And I saw the first 2-liter Coke bottle…

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Come off the line in New England.

Bob: [unintelligible] on it, and all these [unintelligible] microvalves, and doors, and- and, um... shutters, and stuff like that made out of plastic. All this stuff we got plastic.

Chris: [unintelligible] in your frames!

Emily: Yep! [giggles]

Bob: Including, uh, Tupperware.

Emily: Can't… go without Tupperware…

Bob: So, then [unintelligible] finalized and- and perfected, basically, this [unintelligible] process…

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Of design and documentation. [unintelligible] It came time for me to retire. And so, I did! [chuckles]

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: So, now, I'm un-indated with all this stuff I did, and I don't know whether I did the world a good thing or not.

Emily: I think you did!

Bob: But I can't-

Emily: You did a lot of things.

Bob: I can't spell the word "cat" without a K in it.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Uh, yeah, well, y'know, I'm proud of him anyway, for his accompliment- accom-plish-ments.

Emily: Uh-huh.

[pause]

Bob: He's got a half-brother who's a doctor.

Chris: His son.

Emily: Oh... okay.

Bob: And he's got a- and I have a daughter, who is his- his half-sister… that's a… Phi Beta Kappa outta UVA Atlantic.

Emily: Oh... [laughs politely]

Bob: She's workin' for the federal government, and she's got a PHD now. She's working somewhere for the federal government. All these math people… I dunno.

Retired Life (16:59 - 24:22)

Emily: I'm not very good at math. [giggles]

Bob: I'm not that-

Emily: That's why-

Bob: I'm good at logic, but not at math.

Chris: But I'm good at math!

Emily: Oh...

Bob: He's not good at math when it comes to managing money.

[pause]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Hey– look! Hey– look it! I have… your plastic lid on it!

[Chris chuckles and Emily laughs]

Bob: We've been working with him, now, for 27 years.

Bob: It was a challenge. Most of the time, I've been retired, so I could [unintelligible]

Emily: Yeah... usually, if you're not very good at math, you're really good at writing, which is why I'm going for journalism.

Bob: Yeah– well, I, um... I did- I do alright with writing as long as I got a spell checker.

Emily: [laughs]

[pause]

Bob: I just, uh- I- but I enjoyed my life. It- it, uh- it- I had… things; I had- I had opportunities that most people don’t get.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: I got to see all this stuff now.

Emily: That’s good. I hope that, like, y'know, I can travel around the world and, y'know... write up-- do some journalism, like, overseas.

Bob: Yeah– I’ve been to Australia, and I’ve been to Korea, and I've been to England. Most people [unintelligible] to see 'em, but [unintelligible] I've never seen, 'cause they work too good.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Well, it- it was interesting.

[pause]

Bob: I wish I could get- find out what Christian's really good- well, he’s pretty good in drawing…

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And writing.

Chris: Yeah– he- she should know; she- you’ve- you should know; you've seen a bunch of my artwork.

Emily: Yeah! It’s really good! All my- all my friends like it, as well.

Bob: He’s creative… but he’s, um... I- I guess you know he’s- he's high-functioning autistic… and, um...

Chris Yeah.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: At 6, he couldn’t even talk… but he was… programming [unintelligible]on hid computer: his Commodore computer…

Chris: Commodore 64.

Bob: [laughs] Which was his first little-

Emily: Oh! I don’t know very many- much about computers! [giggles] Sorry! [giggles some more]

Bob: You’ve probably got a laptop, with a word processor, don't ya?

Emily: [reluctantly] Yeah...

Chris: Yeah. Yeah– but you-

Bob: Now, we've- we- we’ve brought him a long way.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: It’s been interesting.

Chris: Yeah... well, that’s a little piece for you- that you can, uh, write about, if you want to.

Emily: Yeah! That- that would be interesting.

Chris: Anyway, you- anyway, you came all the way here from, uh, VCU? Or did you make a few stops along the way?

Emily: No– I came all the way from VCU. Um... like, a lot of my fr- uh, friends over at VCU? They're into the whole Sonichu thing, but there’s a lot more… uh, like, I guess "Sonichu Girls"…

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: Up in, uh, the University of West Virginia. And we… k- we kinda do, like, a newsletter-type thing every week.

Chris: Wow.

Emily: Yeah.

[pause]

Bob: But this is in one of my favorite spots in the country.

Chris: [responding belatedly to Emily] I commend you for that.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: [unintelligible] little trees on West Avenue.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Have you heard of West Avenue?

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: You know where West Avenue is?

Emily: Yeah– a little bit; I don’t… really go in that area.

Bob: They're at the end of VCU, then?

Emily: Yeah. [laughs politely] I don’t know that area very well.

Bob: It’s- it's a street of, uh, townhouses. And it's about three blocks long. And it’s got a second name called "Stork Alley".

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: And every spring, they have a "Stork Alley Rally".

Emily: Uh-huh? Oh…

Bob: At the same time, they have the Easter parade over on Monument Avenue.

Emily: Yeah– I’ve never seen it before, but my friends tell me about it. But I’m usually stuck in, y'know… college.

Bob: Yeah– but- but I was only in Richmond… um… 1975 through 1980. And then, I got married to his mother. And, um... he was born, and then, we got transferred over here; I worked for GE. And we lived in Chesterfield County… but I love West Avenue; that’s my favorite spot.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: I call it "Sesame Street".

Emily: Oh, that’s… [laughs politely]

Bob: Because they call it "Stork Alley", 'cause there’s so many kids.

Emily: Oh, yeah?

[pause]

Bob: I- I- I love the Virginian area.

Bob: His mother… was raised– but you wouldn’t believe it– she- she was raised in a [unintelligible] home. And one that's [unintelligible]

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Right there on, um… I can’t think of the name of that street: the one that goes right in front of the Burger King… down at… VCU.

Emily: I don’t know what… streets really are-

Bob: Well, again- but that is a street that goes right in front of Burger King…

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And right down the street from there is where… his mother lived for about 20 years and raised her first son. And he’s got a lot of ties to the family, too; he just doesn’t like me.

Emily: Oh... do you guys have a big family?

[pause]

Bob: Well, uh, we’ve got- we've got my son, and my daughter. You- my son’s in Richmond, and my daughter’s in Washington.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: And then, we’ve got her son, who's in New York. And then, there’s the three of us.

[pause]

Emily: Yeah– Schiflett's a really big family.

Bob: Yeah– we got… two- really, two separate families.

Emily: Mmm.

Chris: Yeah... but it’s not as big as The Brady Bunch!

Emily: Yeah. [laughs politely]

Bob: No… it isn't.

Emily: No.

Bob: But we- we- we enjoy it, and I- I have- uh, I grow flowers. And... I don’t have to worry about… makin' a livin' anymore…

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: With Social Security, and... the GE pension. And GE's good and sound… fortunately!

Emily: Yeah. [laughs politely]

[pause]

Bob: So, uh... I- I grow day lilies. I’ve gotten my yard full of [unintelligible] And in the middle, I’ve got a, um... well, about 15 foot plastic greenhouse.

Emily: Oh?

Bob: Except… inside this greenhouse, it’s different.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Inside this greenhouse, there’s plastic flowers.

Emily: Oh– plastic flowers?

Bob: A swing… and, uh, all my stereo stuff, and, uh...

Chris: Yeah– but he’s got real flowers in his garden.

Emily: Oh. Oh, okay.

Bob: Yeah– the day lilies are real, in the garden; but inside here, it’s all flat.

Chris: Yeah– day lilies bloom about once a year, during- dur- about once-

Bob: In the summer.

Chris: This- this summer.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: There- there's also that-

Chris: And then, they stay that way for about a month or so. It’s a beautiful garden.

Emily: Oh, I can imagine!

Bob: Yeah– I’ve got about 15,000 healthy-

Chris: [dreamily/creepily] Imagine!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: And I- I love all the music from- from [unintelligible (but seemingly naming a pair of musical artists)]

Chris: Raise me on music, he did!

Emily: [giggles]

Bob: And- and musicals. And soundtracks.

Emily: Well, what’s your favorite artist?

Chris: Uh, my favorite artist? Well, he didn’t raise me on it, but, y'know, my favorite ss- uh... singer is Britney Spears.

Emily: Britney Spears?

Bob: And, uh, he's got all- uh, mine are all back from the '40s, and '30s, and '20s, and-

Emily: And he’s into… more modern pop music?

Chris: Although… I guess if I had to pick a classic favorite, it would have to be Satchmo.

Emily: "Satchmo"?

Emily: I might've missed that; I'm not sure.

Chris: Yeah– um... I'd rather not say in front of- I'd rather not say in front of Father… but, uh...

Chris: [whispering] If I told him why, he'd have another heart attack…

Emily: Oh, no! [laughs politely]

[pause]

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah! [laughs politely again]

Chris: Yeah... But I mean, y'know… think of it this way: at least you don't have another face that you have- you don't- it saves you one face to have to look at!

Emily: Yeah... [laughs nervously]

Chris: Yeah– and look at 'em, y'know: they're ashually green-blue.

[pause]

Emily: Yeah– I see it!

[pause]

Chris: Yeah– pink eye in that eye, and then, uh, the prescribed eye drops changed the pigment!

Chris: Mmm. Yeah... looks like you kinda, like, uh, have green-brown eyes yourself?

Emily: Yeah...

[pause]

Chris: Uh...

Emily: I thought they were just plain brown! [laughs politely]

Chris: Yeah– it's just that- y'know, it's- the angle of the light kinda gave it a little bit of a greenish tint…

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Yeah...

Bob: [unintelligible]

[pause]

Chris: Yeah... it's a really big bowl for him…

Bob: Yeah– I got one other thing I was gonna tell you about…

Emily: Uh-huh?

Bob: Since we've talked about it: on that, uh... I've died about five times now. The last time, I was at Golden Corral. The restaurant?

Bob: [chuckles] I just… hit the floor!

Emily: Oh, no!

Chris: No– not really; uh... he was- uh, he was pullin' out his credit c- not really "hit the floor", but… he was pullin' out his, uh, credit card?

Emily: Mm-hmm?

Chris: And he would've… hit a- he was standing in front of, like, the cash register, and there was a bar railing there; the bar rail was there. If he- if my mom wasn't there to catch him…

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Chris: His- like his guardian angel, he would'a hit the bar and would've been… worse…

Emily: Oh...

Chris: Would've been worse off!

Emily: Oh, wow...

Bob: But anyway, uh, now, I've got a pacemaker.

Emily: Wow. [laughs nervously]

Chris: Yeah– and that's when he got his pacemaker.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: I guess that won't happen in, uh...

Emily: [laughs politely]

[pause]

Bob: But I- I think the real reason why I survived all those attacks… which I think I'm proud of…

Emily: Mm-hmm?

Bob: I don't know about you.

Chris: He's proud of it.

Bob: I'm proud of it. I don't know whether he is or not.

Chris: I'm proud of him, for it!

Bob: But I'm, um- I found out a few years ago- about… 10 or 15 years ago…

Emily: Mm-hmm?

Bob: That I was… at least one-fourth Cherokee!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Chris: Yeah– so, that makes me an eighth… Cherokee.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: So, I figured that- and then, I checked back all my father's… relatives [unintelligible] all the way up to be up in their 80s, and 90s, and even over 100 sometimes.

Emily: Dang! [laughs politely]

Bob: Well, I figured: well, that's why I keep bouncin' back from this.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: This ain't my time yet.

Chris: Yeah– either that or, uh, God's lettin' him stick around for my… c- for my case.

Bob: Somebody's gotta look out for him!

Emily: Oh... [laughs nervously]

Bob: [cackles]

Chris: [cackles almost identically]

Bob: Somebody's gotta pay the bills!

Emily: [laughs nervously again]

Chris: Yeah… okay, Dad, uh... you s- alright, Dad-

Bob: Now- now, I'm dismissed, so I can go eat.

Emily: Oh... [laughs nervously yet again]

Chris: Well… not really "dismissed", because… y'know, I'm a little hungry myself… So… [laughs nervously] y'know, Dad, please go get the spaghetti and the bread.

Bob: You sure you don't want something?

Emily: Yeah– I'm sure. Thank you for asking, though.

Chris: Yeah– y'know, I was concerned, myself.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Bob: Well, I'll let you two talk… mainly to save the table…

Emily: [laughs] Yeah…

Bob: [laughs heartily] Then, I'll come back, and… If you don't mind us eatin' in front of you!

Emily: Oh– thank you!

Chris: And, y'know, you are the first, uh, female Sonichu fan to have actually come a long distance to see me.

Emily: Oh– well, it's not that far! I’m sure, like, maybe some of the girls from VCU would come down sometime: like, maybe during s- uh... summer break.

Chris: Yeah– but I mean, at least all the way from, uh, West Virginia.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: I mean, that’s farther than VCU, I'm sure.

Emily: [laughs politely]

Chris: Mmm. [does terrifying Donald Duck impression] "And this is my duck talk! This is, uh, Donald Duck!"

Emily: Yeah– I’m nearsighted, as well.

Chris: Oh.

Emily: I don’t have very good eyes.

Chris: [chuckles] It's like, y'know, we’re close, so it's like, y'know, we don’t need glasses to see each other…

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Do we?

Emily: Hmm... no– it's still blurry…

Chris: Yeah... Mmm. How do you look without that hat? I mean, I want- I'd like to see the, uh…

Emily: It looks good!

Chris: Mmm. Looks good. [chuckles] Boy– I've had it sleepin' against pillows… and I took a shower before I went- before I went to- um, crashing on the… couch.

Emily: [slightly disgusted] Oh...

[pause]

Chris: Yeah– but I put on some, uh, bod- body s- some Axe body spray before I left. Do you like that smell?

Emily: Yeah– it depends on which one it is.

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: Uh, which one is it?

Chris: I believe it's, uh... it's called "Proximity".

Emily: Oh– I really like the choc- the new chocolate one.

Chris: Oh– the, uh, "Dark Temptation"…

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Oh– I was running low on that can anyway.

Emily: Oh... okay.

Chris: It's like I- if I- if I- if we- if we was hookin' up, I would've gotten more of that!

Emily: [laughs]

[Note: Chris both stutters and laughs through "if we was hookin' up", so it's not at all clear that Emily realizes what she's laughing at.]

Chris: [sighs] But seriously, though: you are cute.

Emily: Oh– thank you.

Chris: Mmm. Mmm... Yeah– I like- I like this- I like this- I like the get-up you’re wearing. It's like you're- you c- you straight- came straight from, uh... the, uh, PGSM… show.

Chris: Yeah– Samoru. That’s it; you got it.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: You got it!

Emily: [laughs politely]

Chris: You got it.

Emily: Yeah– I used to be a really big fan of Sailor Moon. Well, I still am; I’m just not as big of a fan as… nowadays.

Chris: [unintelligible] saw entire anime series?

Emily: Um, I haven’t seen the last season.

Chris: Yeah– Sailor Stars.

Emily: Yeah... 'cause it didn’t come out in America, 'cause they’re, like, afraid of the transsexuals?

Chris: [chuckles] Yeah.

Emily: [laughs nervously]

[pause]

Chris: Yeah... Yeah– I kn- I know that. But I have that on, uh- I have that on DVD-

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Uh, y'know, with J- Japanese audio and English subtitles.

Emily: How do you feel about that? Like, the transsexuals and… the Sailor Starlights?

Chris: Yeah. Um...

[pause]

Emily: Does it, like, make you uncomfortable, or… would you-

Chris: No.

Emily: Would you have minded if, like, it came out, and the TV showed just, like, little kids?

[pause]

Chris: Um... Yeah... [pitiful] I don’t have much of an opinion…

[Emily and Chris both laugh]

Emily: It's kind of a… sketchy subject, there.

Chris: Yeah– it's, uh- it's… [in a British accent] itchy…

Emily: Yeah.

[pause]

Emily: [laughs nervously]

Chris: Yeah– but you can sketch a lot in your, uh... journalism, don't ya?

Emily: Yeah. Well, I m- I mean, we don’t draw a lot; we just… We do, like, the little outlines, and then, we start writing.

Chris: Okay– well, I mean, you- I mean, you sketch your letters.

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: I bet you sketch your signature pretty… don’t you?

Emily: No– I thinks it's, uh- it's just basically a bunch'a scribbles.

[Chris and Emily both laugh]

Chris: Eh... a lot of people would say that about their signatures, I’m sure.

Emily: Well, I mean, some people just, like, put an X for their signature, and that’s it.

Chris: Ah... but not you. You put…

[pause]

Emily: An E and… an S, basically. [laughs politely]

Chris: Uh- uh, an S?

Chris: Yeah, it's a King England- It's a King England bible.

Bob: And what they do in the Church is-[trails off quietly]

Chris: King's English, whatever it is.

Bob: [still quiet, hard to hear]

Emily: Oh.

Bob: It's all Korean, like, except for a few words. And then they had like, a wireless [unintelligible], those little earphones, where you could hear the translation.

Emily: [chuckles]

Bob: It was kind of neat, I-I enjoyed it.

Chris: Yeah, everybody was able to bring their own food and we'd get to sample it for uh-, and we'd get to have a nice lunch meal every Sunday there.

Bob: [unintelligible]

Emily: [laughs] You like spicy food?

Chris: Yeah, I like- I like spicy.

Bob: What I was gonna say, uh, Kimchi.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Yeah. Go away, you know?

Emily: [laughs] Too spicy for you?

Bob: Yeah, it's too spicy for me.

Chris: [sounding it out] Kim-Chi, hm.

Bob: But, uh, like they told me if anything that's red, forget it.

Emily: Yeah. [chuckles]

Chris: Except your spaghetti sauce, right Dad?

Bob: They didn't have spaghetti sauce, no they watched that to me, they gave me that more bland stuff.

Emily: Oh. [chuckles]

Bob: [unintelligible]- I even had my own special fork.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: If it was me I can handle spicy, seriously, I can even probably even handle the kid-the kid- the kimchi, what he said.

Bob: That's- that's-

Emily: I can't handle spicy food that well, it upsets my stomach.

Chris: Mmm.

Bob: I like jalapeno a little bit

Emily: [chuckles]

Bob: -a little jalapeno, [unintelligible]

Emily: Hah, yeah.

Bob: [something more about jalapenos, followed by silence] Yeah, they told me anything that was red, don't pick it up.

Emily: Yeah. [laughs politely]

[silence]

Bob on World News (44:47 - 51:00)

Bob: Yeah, I miss Reverend Chen, he was really interested in learning about the world.

Emily: Mhm.

Bob: And he didn't have a chance-[trails off quietly, very hard to hear]

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: [still talking, still hard to hear]

Emily: Good. [after Bob's latest very hard to hear statement] I wish I could, like, pick up the newspaper and read more. I mean I pick up, like, our school newspaper and that's about it, but I mean when it comes to world events I read some of the articles, but I mean some of them I just can't get into.

Bob: Yeah, it's a new thing on TV.

Emily: Mhm?

Bob: I know we have it here on Comcast, I don't know what you have though.

Emily: I'm not sure what-

Bob: Over there.

Emily: I'm not sure what-

Bob: It's a program on public television, it's really a station here, we have three different stations, [unintelligible] and one of them's called World News. [unintelligible]

Emily: I don't think we have that.

Bob: And, they uh-they have uh English translations of everything on it, but they have programs that originate all over the world. [unintelligible] So you see how the rest of the world looks at the U.S.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: So you see what they're saying about us and what's going on over there. Half the time I find out things that are happening in the United States, that somebody in Germany or Russia or China or in Japan-

Emily: [laughs] That's always nice.

Bob: Yeah, that's one of my my favorite stations, and they have it here. I-it's a public radio sponsored thing, but it's called World View.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Dubya-vee(WV).

Emily: I think my school has that, I'm not sure, I might have not never noticed or anything like that.

Bob: Well they might have it, because it's very educational.

Emily: I was watching Discovery Channel.

Bob: Yeah, I watch Discovery, and World Discovery Science, and World History, and-

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Yeah there's lots to see on TV. [unintelligible] He came up with it, believe it or not. He taught himself to read.

Emily: Really?

Bob: Oh he could really read, by turning on those stations [trails off]

Emily: Wow, that's-

Bob: [unintelligible]

Emily: That's go-that's clever!

Bob: [still hard to understand, something about PHDs and psychologists]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: [background noise starting to pick-up, Bob is becoming much harder to hear, hopefully someone can decipher this completely]

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: [something about learning how to read]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: [more about learning to read]

Emily: Yeah!

Bob: But they won't listen to me, I'm an 81 year old [unintelligible, sounds like player]

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: But he came up with-

Emily: But you know they'll come up with it and someone else will take the credit for it later on.

Bob: [at this point the people in the background are becoming easier to hear than Bob, lasts around 20 seconds.] I thought it was such a phenomenal good idea. [more hard to hear sound]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Well he-he's a photographic memory.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: But I think those were the autism a little bit.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: And I got an audio memory too. [apparently they were talking about him.]

Bob: Cause he can, you ever heard of, um Mario World?

Emily: Yeah. [chuckles]

Chris: [chimes in to correct, sounds a bit upset] He's talking about Super Mario World.

Bob: [unintelligible]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Well in three days, he-he [unintelligible stuttering] killed King Koopa. I can't get off of Yoshi's Island.

Emily: [laughs] I'm not very good at those games either. [more laughing]

Bob: The reason he is, is cause he can remember all those different moves.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: It's like taking a picture, [unintelligible]

Emily: [laughs] I reckon I wanna know about that.

Chris: I'll tell you one thing, you've got pretty face. [not a mistake]

Emily: Aww, thank you.

Bob: She looks like Margie, doesn't she?

Chris: What?

Bob: She looks like Margie.

Chris: What you mean the Peanuts character Margie?

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: You know Margie?

Emily: [laughs again]

Chris: Uh...no. [cuts off Bob with more laughter from Emily] No, I'd say if anything she uh, wait a minute I'm trying to...I'm trying to figure it out. Um...

Bob: She doesn't look like Peppermint Patty.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Yeah I'd say, uh, you compare [unintelligible] you look more like Rei from PGSM.

Emily: Yeah, [pause] she's one of my favorite characters.

Chris: You like Sailor Mars, [something nerdy and unintelligible]

[pause]

Emily: Who's your favorite character?

Chris: Um, with the exception of uh Usagi and Chibi-Usa. I like, uh, Ami.

Emily: Any particular reason, like?

Chris: [chuckle] Well, I don't know it's just like [short ramble]...

Emily: Cause she's smart?

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: And uh also, I think it's, I think also it's the blue hair, I'm not sure.

Emily: Do you like blue?

Chris: Yeah, blue is my favorite color, what's your favorite color?

Emily: I like green.

Chris: You like green. So I guess you like Jupiter.

Emily: Yeah, Jupiter. [laughs]

Chris: [apparently doing a horrendous impression of Sailor Jupiter] Jupi-tahhh!

Emily: [inaudible]

Chris: You know, if you uhh, you uhh, [unintelligible] car, you'd- you'd be all right by yourself at this point, right?

Bob: [something about taking care of himself]

Emily: [laughs] No.

Chris: I mean, it's like, uhh you know, if you, uhh, don't feel like moving around any more, we can go, uhh, walk and talk.

Emily: I don't want to leave him by himself. I mean...

Chris: He's all right.

Emily: Will you be here at the mall very much longer, or...

Bob: I dunno.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Well, if he's here by the time we get back, he'll be here for that much longer.

Emily: OK...

Bob: I can stick around, but I'm slow.

Chris: Yeah, he's slow.

Bob: I like to eat slow, I don't gobble my food [unintelligible]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: -enjoy it, savour it-

Chris: You know I taste my food and savour it as well. At least my first bite.

Emily: Yeah. [laughs] [unintelligible]

Bob: After that it's [inaudible]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Yeah but by the way, you know it's on one of my shirts. It's on my favorite shirt, you know, the one I draw myself in often.

Emily: [interrupts with a laugh] Thank you.

Chris: ...have come a long distance.

Emily: Thank you. Anyway, where do you want to walk off to?

Chris: Uh, you know, uh, anywhere in the mall.

Emily: Yeah, doesn't look... it's not very big. [laughs]

Bob: You're right.

Chris: Yeah I have. I wish it was two story, like Regency Square.

Emily: Where's that?

Chris: It's in Chestfield County.

Bob: No, it's not in [???]...

Emily: [laughs over Bob]

Bob: ...County. It's close [inaudible] It's across the river.

Emily: Oh.

Emily: Uh-huh. I've never heard of it.

Chris: Yeah, and it has a Bear Band there... that's uh, where I got...that's where I learned about Christian and got my name changed from Christopher to Christian.

Bob: How come none of your fans know about it?

Chris: For one I didn't share it arou- didn't talk about it very much.

Bob: When he was born... I was too chicken to name him Christian.

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: Wow.

Bob: I was too... so I named him Christopher.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: But I really wanted to name him Christian.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And so, when he was... what? Seven or eight years old...

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: ...we were over at Regency Square...

Chris: Yeah I think his photo...

Bob: ...at Christmas time. And they had this automated Bear Band.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Like... they had bear characters that were playing instruments, and one of them conducting and singing.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And...but underneath there was this old man fella talking, and he had a camera, so he could see who he was talking to. And he [inaudible] talking to the bear.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: [inaudible] was British...had a British accent anyway. But he was talking to Christopher. And he asked Chris-he asked uh, Chris his name. He said Christopher, but he misunderstood.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: And he thought he said Christian.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: So he started calling him Christian.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Over there... at the mall.

Emily: Mm.

Bob: Guess he liked that, and uh, so later we got- later we got... later we did all the paperwork,

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Made it official, changed it from-from Christopher to Christian.

Emily: Well at least he got the name that you wanted to give him.

Bob: Yeah, yeah I know. But...and then Christian came along with later and confided in me like he does sometimes...

Emily: [awkward laugh]

Bob: ...sometimes, that he had so much- too many problems here in Greene County, north of here where we live.

[loud cough, probably Chris]

Bob: It's a little small county 'n rural. Got... maybe 10,000 people in there.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: It's about ten... yeah, about ten miles up the road.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: And, uh... he had so much trouble over the school system there. They tried to put him in an institution for years. For years I fought 'em in court.

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: And I kept winning and winning and winning, but finally I took him to Richmond to go to school...

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: ...to get him away from...them.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And I spent seven years over there with him in a townhouse while his mother was working over here.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: But, um...anyway, he confided in me one day after we changed his name.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: He was all, "I really wanted to change my name to uh, to be a Christian as a new life in Chesterfield County...

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: We left Christopher over there with those people in Greene County.

Emily: Yeah. [laughs]

Chris: Yeah, but then here's the [unintelligible] I thought..I real-I realized, uh, later after we came back to our Ruckersville home here.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Chris: Uh..yeah, um...after we came back I started hearing Christopher, like you know, Christopher Thorndyke from Sonic X, at least.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Chris: It's like... it's like- like you know...at the same time it's like th-those...it's like the past spirit of Christopher saying [high-pitched voice] "You should change your name!"

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Anyway, we're still... we're still back in the same house, you know?

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: [inaudible] programmed... I had an interesting life...

Emily: I don't know.

Chris's card game history (55:24 - 59:24)

Bob: [inaudible] Now I can play around...[Chris talks over him]

Chris: Yeah. Well actually, uh, also you know, [inaudible; possibly 'brace yourself for the history of how it all got started'.] [coughs] In Chesterfield County in 1998.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Chris: In the February '98 issue of Nintendo Power, uh... they had the p- the had the uh, they had the Char- they had the Charmeleon Pokemon card from the first base set.

Chris: Yeah. Two months...yeah, like a month or two after that, over by the Books-A-Million I signed up for the Pok...I uh, with...uh...within that time I uh learned to play the game after I picked up some cards from the deck. Then I went to the Poke- I started going to the Poke'mon league over there, at the Books-a-Million.

Bob or possibly a bystander: Oh my god.

Chris: Then we moved back to Ruckersville, uh, been around, uh, went to Pokemon League over at, uh, Toys-R-Us, then uh [inaudible, sounds like 'The End.'], and uh, finally over at The uh, Game Place.

Bob: Uh-huh.

Chris: But then they kicked me out, uh, last...June of last year.

Emily: Was that at the Toys-R-Us or, uh, the End...?

Chris: Yeah, they don't...they don't do that anymore [unintelligible]

Emily: You could always, like, go back to those places, I mean, maybe they've...

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: ...got other card games that you can play.

Chris: Yeah, well [clears throat] I think why- also why one of the reasons why I decided to go back to playing Eye of Judgment.

Emily: Mm.

Emily: Are you gonna...are you joining? Or...

Chris: Yeah, it's basically all I have to do is go online and play against...

Bob: [inaudible; encouraging, possibly 'and he's gunna win'.]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Yeah, if I get...if I get within the top 100 I win the free promo cards they're off- offering.

Emily: Uh, what do you...what do you get if you win like first place, do you know?

Chris: A title.

Emily: A title? [laughs]

Chris: Yep. A title. If I don't go-

Emily: Why don't-no money or anything like that?

Chris: No, but...

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: ...you know, at least I get the free promo cards.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: And I'd-I'd just as soon get the cards than the title, but if I get the title, then that's just plain dumb luck right?

Emily: Yeah. [laughs]

Bob: Like that one time you won what, $500 worth of stuff?

Chris: Oh yeah, I-

Bob: [inaudible]

Chris: Oh yeah, uh, [unintelligible] GameStop gift card from that Guitar Hero gift card.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: Yeah, you were popular at the church.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: You gave...you gave about 10 or 15 games away, right?

Chris: Uh, no, it wasn't-it wasn't like 10 or 15, I'd say it's more like, uh, five or eight.

Emily: Five or eight.

Chris: Yeah, but you know the top three, you know, the uh...three of the children over there, they uh, they requested from me, they appre-they appreciated it so much they gave me...made this little tree for me and little ah-ah-ah branches...

Chris: For, you know, appreciation and the fact that I was shar-

Emily: Yeah, that was very nice for you to do that and for them to thank you like that.

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: How about sending me a copy of your publication...of your Sonichu Girls?

Emily: You don't know what's going on.

Chris: [laughs]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: It's basically girl chatter amongst the four of us, right?

Emily: Yeah.

Girls (59:26 - 01:05:21)

Chris: I-I like to see the girls talk. I listened to girls talk a lot back in high school because I have my wide circle of gal-pals...

Emily: Uh-huh.

Chris: ...between my high-school years and [unintelligible] my elementary-school years. And also I didn't live my young life. In my neighborhood I was pretty much the only guy in the neighborhood.

Emily: [laughs] Well then, lucky for you.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: I don't know about [inaudible]. Like your blondes.

Emily: Do you like blondes?

Chris: I like blondes. But, you know, it's so...that's so stereotypical...

Bob: Yes.

Chris: ...to call 'em flaky cause they're not all flaky.

Bob: No, they're not. No way.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Like you know Pamela Anderson is very smart. Uh...

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: ...just to name one at least. She wrote the book, Star.

Emily: Yeah. [unintelligible]

Chris: Oh.

Emily: You didn't realize that?

Chris: No I no-I haven't even heard of it.

Emily: Oh, yeah. She wrote her own [unintelligible]

Chris: That's cool. [pause] I think Britney Spears wrote a book too, didn't she?

Emily: Yeah. Britney Spears is really smart. Even though people like, diss her blah blah blah saying, but she's pretty intelligent.

Chris: Yeah. So anyway, there you go. Three blondes, right there, that are sexified [unintelligible]

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Hmm...I guess that's why people say uh... [unintelligible] attracted to my mom, is she reminds him of Marcie, you know?

Bob: Yeah.

Chris: I guess she kind of turned him off being Marcie [unintelligible]...

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: ...Marcie type yourself. I mean...

Bob: She looked like Liz Taylor then.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Everybody thought she was Liz Taylor.

Chris: Yeah. By the way uh Emily, how old did you say you were again?

Bob: [inaudible] No, you keep writing...

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: Then you look at it, and put it down [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: There's a...in my creative writing class what we do sometimes is that we write one line each day for a story, and just, every day we just write a different line, and eventually like after maybe a month or two, you know, it's supposed to be a story.

Bob: [inaudible] But then, you pick it up and lay it down, you pick it up and look at it again...

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: ...and each time you little minute corrections.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: [inaudible] corrections. But that's the way [inaudible]. And if you don't try, you don't-you don't gain nothing [unintelligible]

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: You gotta keep trying. You know, you don't give up...who knows, some crazy bear might come along and call you Christian.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: [laughs] What?

Bob: [inaudible] silly bear might come along and call you Christian, right?

Chris: Yeah. [pause] No, I don't think so. I don't think a-I don't think a British bear could confuse "Emily"...

Chris: No, I had-I had 40.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: I had 40 dollars. I had 40 dollars plus 10 dollars in my pocket. 40 dollars came from my birthday money.

Bob: That wouldn't even-that wouldn't even take care of the toll [inaudible] turnpike.

Chris: I didn't expect that toll to be 11 dollars.

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: Really? 11 dollars for a toll booth?

Chris: Yeah. Th-th-they give you a card at one checkpoint, then when you get to the next checkpoint, depending on the distance-depending on uh, how far it was from that checkpoint...

Emily: Oh, OK.

Chris: ...[inaudible] the next.

Bob: Wherever you get off, then you gotta pay.

Emily: Oh, OK.

Bob: You'd never been-never been on a toll road before.

Chris: [unintelligible]

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: [unintelligible] for a toll booth with about a dollar. [laughs]

Bob: Well you can get on and fill it out, and drive all the way to the Ohio [???].

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Pittsburgh. I guess they charge you 20-25 dollars for that.

Emily: Dang.

Bob: But he got on in the middle, in a place called Breezewood.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: You've probably heard of Breezewood. [inaudible] up there just-just northeast of [???]

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: [inaudible] Yeah and you go to Breezewood and hang a left. I thought he-I thought he was up here in the valley.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: Couple hundred miles away and then he was at the Ohio state line.

Emily: [short laugh]

Bob: That was some day for us. We were a little worried. Then he-then he started back. We were led to believe that he was about 300-about 200 miles away.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: Turns out he was just outside of Ohio, Cleveland, when he called.

Emily: At least you were able to get back safely.

Chris: Yep.

Bob: I don't know how he did it. 3 o'clock in the morning, I'd have been numb. I wouldn't have been able to.

Chris: [laughs]

Emily: [inaudible] at night.

Chris: Yeah, well I got fair eyesight in [unintelligible]

Bob: [inaudible] mine keeps going downhill [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: And I've [inaudible] many types of, like games playing racing and RPG...

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Chris: ...and all, and the adventures [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: But it's like, it's only helpful when you have the directions from Mapquest, and uh, you can uh, find a world map of the uh, east-of the we-of the eastern coast of the United States.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Chris: Which is really Virginia. And uh, Ohio in the [unintelligible]

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Which I highlighted with a blue marker.

Bob: I have to admit, I did something just about as dumb when I was a kid.

Emily: [laughs]

Chris: Oh, you did something dumb?

Bob: Yeah I did. Well, I'd already been to Korea and back. [inaudible] I was in Korea [inaudible] before the Korean War.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: And I'd always spent my time with the army, well I was in school.

Emily: Uh-huh.

Bob: And I had a friend that was [inaudible], down in Alabama, way down there, you know.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: And um, I had a friend [inaudible]...

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Bob: ...in the Army. So, Christmas break, Christmas time, right. I didn't have anywhere to go. I decided to [inaudible].

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Yeah. While I was in the Army, I spent nine months in New York anyway.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: [inaudible] Fort [???] [inaudible] and I'd gone up to New York City every weekend. But, for about nine months, well I knew the place like the back of my hand.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Chris: No wonder I was risky enough to [unintelligible] a trip.

Bob: Uh-

Chris: I'd been hanging around in [unintelligible]

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Yeah, so dumb me, I thought I could hitchhike to-to New Jersey...now this was like the middle of December.

Chris: Oh.

Emily: Yeah.

Bob: Warm in Alabama but not in New Jersey.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: I got there, and then I had to stay a couple weeks-

Chris: [inaudible]

Bob: -then I ran out of money-

Chris: [inaudible]

Bob: -and then I had to try to-

Chris: [inaudible]

Bob: -find-to fi-to get back to my way home.

Chris: Just to let you know, uh, [inaudible] Cleveland, [inaudible] kind of like, uh, run down. I thought, Jersey probably looks better.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: By comparison.

Bob: I've done dumb things too.

Chris: [inaudible]

Bob: [inaudible]

Emily: There you go.

Chris: He went to a bad town...he went to a bad slummy town called Jersey, I went to a bad slummy town called Cleveland.

Emily: [laughs]

Bob: Well I've been to Cleveland too, I know Cleveland well.

Chris: Yeah, well...

Bob: [inaudible]

Chris: I me-I me-I mean he took the stupid long trip to Jersey, I took the stupid long trip to see Cleveland.

Bob: And I was hitchhiking and you were in the car. It was different. It used to be safe to walk.

Emily: Oh.

Bob: And you can't even hitchhike places today.

Emily: [unintelligible] can't do that.

Bob: [inaudible]

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: [inaudible] down the road.

Emily: Yeah [unintelligible] [laughs]

Bob: [laughs]

Chris: Yeah.

Bob: Well, I'll see you later. You have a good trip.

Chris: Alright.

Emily: Alright.

Bob: Don't go to sleep. If you get sleepy, pull over.

Emily: OK, don't worry, I will.

A Walk to Remember (01:14:23 - 01:21:43)

Chris and Emily awkwardly leave Bob who continues to ramble as they clomp off through the mall.

Bob: Take care.

Chris: Alright come on, Emily, let's, let's walk…

Bob babbles on about sending something.

Emily:Okay... okay, you can show me around the mall…

Chris: Okay! Here's our… heights… You… you come to just about my eyeline.

Emily: [nervous tittering]

They walk quietly for a moment as Chris mutters something quietly.

Chris: [sigh] So where you li… where do you usually like to go shopping at when you're at a shopping center?

Emily: [impatiently] Clothes stores.

Chris: Yeah, uh, they have a number of clothing stores in, uh...

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: … a J.C. Penney and a Sears, among other places that uh, more name brands…

Emily: Yeah a lot of the stores here are, if you take a look, take a look at the prices and they're pretty expensive.

Chris: Yeah... Yeah... but, you know, they used to ha- they used to have a Kay-Bee Toys here and I- that's where I got my- turns out- my thousand dollar shopping spree I won around the… around the Adventures- the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog…

Emily: Uh-huh.

Chris: That sweepstakes, you might remember I put something about that…

Emily: Yeah!

Chris: … you might remember that, uh, news clip…

Emily: Yeah! I've seen it.

Chris: Yeah...

Chris nervously takes a few steps.

Chris: Wow... you're like… I'm sorry.

Emily: [nervous laughter]

Chris: I'm just fascinated like… you're just like… a character from PGSM or from- came all the way from Japan- just leapt out of my television!

Emily: [nervous laughter] No I'm definitely all American.

Chris: You're all American.

Emily: I'm all American.

Chris: Okay- so it's just- it's just your eyes that are excepting.

Emily: [shameless subject change] Yeah... so what's your favorite store here?

Chris: Yeah it's- currently, since they took away the toy store- I think it's- I would say it's mostly Gamestop, but I also go to the bookstore or Sears, or even the Spencer's that's down on the other side of the mall. And they used to have an FYE here, which was a Suncoast before- before it- before they all merged and became an FYE, but then they closed that to make the next business here.

Emily: What's down the other way… cause I've been… I came down this way, but I haven't been down that way.

Chris: Okay, we'll go down that way! Alright. I hope- Hope you don't mind me sticking around your left side…

Emily: [bravely] Okay, that's fine!

Chris: I mean, I guess I should keep my hands to myself and behave, right?

Emily: Yeah, you should probably do that.

Chris: I mean, I'm just trying to be friendly.

Emily: [nervous laughter]

Chris: But, you know, not- but you know- respectful- touch you gently on the shoulder or the back-

Emily: [vomitously] Yeah…

Chris: I mean at least I'm not that guy from Inuyasha that… go- eh- go for the bum.

Emily: [vomitously] Yeah…

Chris: Heh-heh, that's funny. Always get slapped in the face, he does.

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: I forget his name, I think it's Mamoru, or something like that

Emily: Uh... it's Miroku.

Chris: [talking over her] Do you watch Inuyasha? Yeah, Miroku, that was it, you hi- you hit it on the head right there…

Emily: Yeah...

Emily awkwardly walks several steps.

Emily: *delaying* Is that the… food court there?

Chris: Yeah that's basically the food court.

Emily: OK...

Chris: Yeah it use- it used to have McDonald's here-

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: … soooo many years ago across from the Gamestop there, back then it was called Babbages…

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: And then between them and Suncoast was FunCo Land and Software Etc. and they all merged into a Ga- they all merged into Gamestop.

Emily: Oh... never heard about that…

Chris: Yeah... I'm sh- I'm sh- I'm sure you must've at least noticed those game stores back in your youth-

Emily: Yeah... I play video games sometimes, but not very often…

Salesman: HELLO WOULD YOU LIKE HARAAGARALABHGH

Emily: Oh, no thank you!

Chris: No thank you! Yeah... right over- see- where that [unintelligible name of store], that's where PacSun used to be, where Anna McLerran

Emily: Oh yeah... I've… I've heard of her as well…

Chris: Yeah...

Emily: Is she still around?

Chris: No she, uh- moved to Utah.

Emily: Utah…

Chris: She's a Mormon. Found that out after I met her. But we cam- but we- but we could became good friends and I gave her, uh, you know, gave her a going away/birthday party before she left for Utah…

Emily: Uh-huh!

Chris: For her 20th birthday… and actually her- actual- and actually her friends, uh, her friends and I got together and put together the party. [emphatically] I k- I bought the cake.

Emily: Oh, that's nice of you… and… there was also Megan. Do you keep in contact with her?

Chris: Yeah uh... no, not-no-n-n-not-been-touch with her for a long time.

Emily: Oh...

Chris: That's cause she moved to another state.

Emily: Oh... did she move to Utah too?

Chris: Uh, no, I don't think she moved to Utah, I don't even remember where she moved to.

Emily: Oh...

Chris: But you know, sometimes, I, uh, I dream I'm back in uh, Manchester High, you know, I get to see all my- all my old s- c- all my old friends… there.

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: Sometimes I even see Megan and John in there… John's her brother…

Emily: Oh ok...

Chris: Can you believe that, attending Manchester High like I was back then,

Emily: [small laughter]

Chris: … but yet they never went- they never been- they never been to Manchester High, neither of them. Isn't that… kinda funny?

Emily: [slightly sarcastically] Yeah... that is kinda funny!

Chris: Yeah... FYE was over there…

Emily: Oh... I guess it's becoming a LensCrafters?

Chris: Yeah, I guess… anyway here's the Spencer's.

Emily: Oh...

Chris: If you like looking at the, uh, naughty stuff-

Emily: [quickly] No, I'm not into that.

Chris: Not yet anyway! [laughs]

Emily: [nervous laughter]

Chris: Ah, but you might. But it's mostly humorous, anyway.

Emily: Yeah... well... doesn't look like there's anything down here…

Chris: Yeah... not much… not much to look at around here… the toy stores around here are down here…

Emily: Oh... well I gotta get going soon, it's gonna be a long drive!

Chris: Long drive…

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: Well I hope, uh, you at least, uh, keep the memories we've shared…

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: Yeah I'll walk you to your car, if you want…

Emily: No, I'll probably have to go to the bathroom first… it's that time of the month…

Chris: Oh.

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: Yeah, when you're on your, uh, period…

Emily: Yeah... [nervous laughter]

Chris: Yeah, you know, aside from the, uh, first time, uh, meeting, this first meeting, uh, how do you feel about me? In general…

Emily: You're a really nice guy!

Chris: Thank you…

Emily: I don't know why people pick on you and all that…

Chris: Yeah, they should get to know me in person…

Emily: Yeah...

Chris: I mean I'm a gentleman, I behave… behave…

Emily: [steering the beast] Have you been into any of these stores over here?

Meet the Pickle (01:21:44 - 01:25:29)

Pickle Man: [inaudible] Yeah, so, um, you wouldn't want to go see Watchmen, would you?

Chris: Uh... no.

Emily: I'd see that movie.

Chris: [shocked] Uh... any particular reason why you're dressed up like that?

Pickle Man: Not in particular.

Chris: Come on, Emily.

Emily: What?

Pickle Man: Hey, hey, maybe the lady wants to go with me. Ya, ya want to go see Watchmen? Lots of, uh...

Emily: [gloating] Why, what's wrong?

Chris: The man in the pickle suit… a- it's apparent this guy's amongst the… trolls.

Pickle Man: You think…

Emily: What's a tro…

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Passerby: Sir… sir, what are you?

Pickle Man: I'm a pickle.

Passerby: You're a pickle! I love pickles.

Pickle Man: Yeah? Pickles are pretty cool.

Passerby: And who are you advertising with?

Pickle Man: I'm not really advertising.

Passerby: You're just dressed for fun?

Pickle Man: Just bored.

Chris: Dressed as a pickle to HAUNT ME.

Pickle Man: Excuse me? I don't even know you.

Passerby: You're just bored?

Pickle Man: Yep!

Chris: [questioningly] You don't even know me… are you sure… do you have internet access?

Pickle Man: Lots of people have internet access.

Chris: Do you know Sonichu and Rosechu?

Pickle Man: No, I do not.

Chris: Do you know about Encyclopedia Dramatica?

Pickle Man: No, I do not. [turning to Emily] Want to go see Watchmen?

Chris: [stress sighs] No, no, no, she's with-

Emily: Alright!

Chris: … she's h- she's headed over to- she's heading back to her home town.

Pickle Man: Uh, Watchmen would be pretty cool.

Emily: Yeah, it would be pretty cool!

Chris: Yeah, alright, uh...

Emily: Let's go see it!

Pickle Man:Okay, cool.

Emily: Yeah?

Pickle Man: [to Emily as they turn to leave together] You've probably seen Watchmen [he refers to the novel], haven't you?

Chris: [answering the question meant for Emily as he is clearly left behind] I've heard of Watchmen…

Pickle Man: [laughs at Chris]

Emily: Yeah!

Chris: [inaudible, but clearly saying something to the effect that he doesn't like the Pickle Man]

Emily: [gloating] What's wrong with him?

Pickle Man: What, you like pickles?

Chris: Yeah... I do not like pickles.

Pickle Man: No pickles?

Chris: And also particularly a guy in a pickle suit who tricked me on the internet pretending that he was Blanca!

Emily: There's nothing wrong with him!

Pickle Man: Who's Blanca?

Chris: [stress sighs/grunts]

Emily: There's nothing wrong with him! See, he's a nice guy.

Chris: [inaudible, but stressed as he moves closer to Emily]

Pickle Man: I think you're making the lady uncomfortable there, Chris.

Chris: [stress sighs] I'm sorry, Emily.

Emily: It's ok... I think I have… to go to the bathroom now…

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: Yeah, go change my tampon.

Chris: Oh boy. [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: [inaudible] … but I guess I do now.

Emily: [attempting to brush him off] OK, well it was nice meeting you… maybe we'll talk online or something.

Chris: Yeah well… I kinda… [inaudible]

Pickle Man: [as they continue trying to walk away] Well, we're going to go now.

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Yeah well…

Emily: I'm going to the bathroom.

Chris: Yeah, uh, either of- [to Pickle Man] you're not going where she's going…

Pickle Man: Uh, we're- we're leaving together.

Chris: Are you with her?

Pickle Man: Now we are. We're going to go see Watchmen.

Chris: No! N- no! She's going b- you gotta go back to West Virginia, don't you.

Pickle Man: We're going to go see Watchmen first.

Emily: I'm kinda- just- gonna- Watchmen's not that long of a movie.

Chris: [suddenly concerned for Emily] Yeah, but you got a five hour drive!

Emily: [dismissively] It'll be ok.

The Pickle Man and Chris indistinctly carry on a short dialogue. The Pickle Man seems to be asking Chris why he is following along, and Chris replies:

Chris: I'm just staying close to my friends

Emily: Alright, see ya!

Hiding Out In The Bathroom (01:25:29 - 01:29:34)

There is a long pause as Emily hides from Chris in the bathroom.

Passerby: [inaudible]...very fashionable looking.

Emily: Oh, thank you!

Passerby: The mall should pay you for walking around.

Emily: [laughs]

Another long pause as Emily finally leaves the bathroom.

A Precious Farewell (01:29:35 - 01:31:10)

Pickle Man: So, you ready to go?

Emily: Yeah, my car's that way.

Pickle Man: Okay.

Chris: Yeah, her car's… Your car's [inaudible] didn't you?

Emily: Yeah.

Chris: Yeah, so did I.

Emily: Oh, you did?

Chris: Yeah.

Emily: Which [inaudible]?

Chris: Tha- that way.

Emily: Oh... I'm over there.

Chris: Oh. [continues walking alongside Pickle Man and Emily]

Emily: Chris… you don't need to walk me to my car.

Chris: Okaaay.

Emily: This is… Alright.

Chris: So, you have yourself a safe trip back to uhh... West Virginia.

Emily: Oh... [feigning cheerfulness] okay! I might call you on Skype later.

Chris: Okay, you take care.

Emily: You too.

Chris: Hey… [attempts to hug and kiss Emily]

Emily: [tries to avoid Chris] No… no… no thank you! [nervous laughter] No thank you.

Chris: [gives up] Okay.

Emily: Alright, see you.

Chris: Alright, well you take care, be safe.

Emily: Alright, you too.

8 seconds pass as Pickle Man and Emily walk away from Chris.

Chris: [yelling from a distance] HE KNOWS CLYDE CASH!

There is laughter from Pickle Man and Emily.

Emily: [laughing] Mission accomplished!

Pickle Man: Is he gone yet?

Emily: I don't know, let me look behind.

Pickle Man: [inaudible] I'm so sorry, I'm so so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Emily: That's okay!. [inaudible] worse than me…

Pickle Man: I'm so sorry.

Emily: That's okay.

Pickle Man: [inaudible]

Emily: Yeah...

Pickle Man: Okay... [inaudible] man in the pickle suit?

Emily: [laughs]

Pickle Man: [laughingly says something about Clyde Cash]

Emily: [laughs] Wait there… there's Frosty.

Pickle Man: What?

Emily: Looks like he's gone now. I'm gonna go tell him what happened.

+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I haven't talked to him in years…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah…
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> I can't this dang camera to work!
 [pause]
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Yeah– that's- I worked at, uh- I'm an engineer… and engineers never learn how to spell.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I think very logically, but I-
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Shoot! I got bad batteries in the camera.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [disappointed] Oh...
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> If I would- if I would ''write'' anything, half the words would be phonetically rather than the way we're… ''supposed'' to do.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I got along fine… writing stuff… on my ''word'' processor… when I had a ''spell'' checker.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Without that, I'm [unintelligible, but clearly self-deprecating] [''laughs heartily'']
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Did you like doing engineering?
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Well... I- I had a real ''u-''nique situation…

 ===Bob's Work History (07:18 - 16:58)===
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Look, uh… I'm- I'm really old.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Okay– to start with: I'm 81. And, uh, I came along ''before'' transistors.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Look, uh… I'm- I'm really old.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Not- not [unintelligible] all the safe stuff we have now, but even before ''transistors''… when we had vacuum tubes.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I, uh... got drafted after World War II. That's how old. But, uh... then, they put me in the Signal Corps, and they knew things I didn't know. They taught me how to install valve systems and switchboards and telephone poles. So, I found out: yeah– I'm pretty good at that. So, when I got out– 'course that was in 1947– I found out- now, I know that we had a deflation on our hands; I didn't know it then.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> You couldn't get a job, so, I thought "Well, I got the G.I. Bill. I'll go to school."<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Okay– to start with: I'm 81. And, uh, I came along ''before'' transistors.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah– now, it's really hard to become an engineer.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Yeah– now, ya- I, uh-<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I went to… a state [unintelligible] college to start with, 'cause I had the philosophy that if I went to a big school I'd be just… swallowed up.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Not- not [unintelligible] all the safe stuff we have now, but even before ''transistors''… when we had vacuum tubes.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I went to a small school and took Pre-Engineering for two years, and that was the best thing ''I'' ever did, 'cause I wound up, uh- well, I got- I got through my two years of Pre-Engineering in small classes.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I, uh... got drafted after World War II. That's how old. But, uh... then, they put me in the Signal Corps, and they knew things I didn't know.

-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And also, I loved music, and I was in the band and everything. And I got in the symphony orchestra… and learned a lot about music while I was up there too.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I went to Auburn, and then [unintelligible] talk about getting swallowed up!<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> You couldn't get a job, so, I thought "Well, I got the G.I. Bill. I'll go to school."
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Then, at that time, Auburn- which now has what: 30,000 students, or something? Auburn had about 5,000 students.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah– now, it's really hard to become an engineer.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I got my Engineering degree. And then, when I got out, I said "Well, I'll, uh... I can do anything with relays and telephones and valve systems, and [inaudible]. I'm gonna work for Western Electric."<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Yeah– now, ya- I, uh-
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> That seems logical, right?<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I went to… a state [unintelligible] college to start with, 'cause I had the philosophy that if I went to a big school I'd be just… swallowed up.
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [suddenly offended somehow] Hey!<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Because they make, uh-<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> You- no– you listen to my father… because he's somethin'! Because I get some of my intelligence from ''him''.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I went to a small school and took Pre-Engineering for two years, and that was the best thing ''I'' ever did, 'cause I wound up, uh- well, I got- I got through my two years of Pre-Engineering in small classes.
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Especially my ''technological'' intelligence.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But anyway, I, uh- I went to work for them for 40 years, and, uh... at that point in time…<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Uh, this is even ''before'' the Atlas missile… the ICBM.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah. [''laughs nervously'']<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And also, I loved music, and I was in the band and everything. And I got in the symphony orchestra… and learned a lot about music while I was up there too.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> ''Before'' the Korean War… and, uh- but, I- I found out they were building ''radar'' systems. Well, that was fine, but also, they had lots of government money, so they wanted some automatic test equipment. At that time, ''nothing'' was automatic. They ''had'' none!<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I went to Auburn, and then [unintelligible] talk about getting swallowed up!
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, that's what ''I'' went and built. [unintelligible] what I learned in the army, right?<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I started working with the first automatic test equipment that we ever made. And then, GE heard about it… and they came down to [unintelligible] in North Carolina.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And- so, GE came down; they offered me a job… up in upstate New York. Cold country in Utica.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Then, at that time, Auburn- which now has what: 30,000 students, or something? Auburn had about 5,000 students.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, uh... I went down to build some automatic test equipment for the ICBM [unintelligible] Intercontinental Ballistic Missile.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I got my Engineering degree. And then, when I got out, I said "Well, I'll, uh... I can do anything with relays and telephones and valve systems, and [inaudible]. I'm gonna work for Western Electric."
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Nobody knows how, 'cause we haven't done it before.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> We'd done some of this automatic test equipment down here. "Why don't you come up there?" "Well, okay!"<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> That seems logical, right?
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I went up there for three years and helped develop the, uh, automatic…equipment… for testing the missiles, and… all the guidance systems, and things… in the [unintelligible]<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But- but I got- I was a soldier, true and tried, 'cause I was born in Texas and raised in Alabama.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [suddenly offended somehow] Hey!
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I was in North Carolina first. And then, I hit upstate New York, and I froze to death. [''chuckles'']<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs''] Yeah, that must be really different! [''laughs again'']<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Because they make, uh-
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Well, after three years, I said "I'm going back to somethin' [unintelligible]" Well, GE- I didn't know it then, but I had a real, natural ''draw''… to the mountains.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> You- no– you listen to my father… because he's somethin'! Because I get some of my intelligence from ''him''.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And I knew about Roanoke, since I'd been in, uh, [unintelligible] So, I wanted to come back to Roanoke, and GE had plants there.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And… they were there developing- specializing in industrial automation. Except they didn't done any ''automation'' yet. They were just industrial-controlled.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I finagled a transfer back to Roanoke, and… I got there just at the time when they were startin'… to make… any kind of automation controls for engines.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I got into what they call "a new business area". And I got to do ''all'' the great things. All my- I- I really had it right. I was in the right places at the right time.<br>
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Especially my ''technological'' intelligence.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah. [''laughs politely'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Because I am very ''logically-''inclined.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But anyway, I, uh- I went to work for them for 40 years, and, uh... at that point in time…
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> That doesn't really happen nowadays, with the economy…<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Yeah– and I- I'm a logician.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Uh, this is even ''before'' the Atlas missile… the ICBM.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Oddly enough, I never learned how a transistor even works… on records. But I ''use'' 'em all the time.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah. [''laughs nervously'']
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I use 'em. I'm retired now, a long time. But… when I started out with this group, and the first thing we got into was trying to automate a steel mill… for rolling [unintelligible] steel for your cars.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> ''Before'' the Korean War… and, uh- but, I- I found out they were building ''radar'' systems. Well, that was fine, but also, they had lots of government money, so they wanted some automatic test equipment. At that time, ''nothing'' was automatic. They ''had'' none!
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Well, we did that. And then, I got into… how to roll papers so you could get Kleenex.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''giggles'']<br>
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> And, of course, y'know, he's the guy that designed the controls for all the plastic water machines, so without him at this time, you couldn't have the plastic for your glasses.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, that's what ''I'' went and built. [unintelligible] what I learned in the army, right?
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And- and then- then, I got into- I was in the new business area where we could do the first one… and then, somebody else would take over and do the others.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And-- and then, I got into managing a paper mill. But then, I got into the… industry of- of, uh, like [unintelligible] warehousing, automatic transition, like BART: Bay Area Rapid Transit.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I started working with the first automatic test equipment that we ever made. And then, GE heard about it… and they came down to [unintelligible] in North Carolina.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Automatic railroads and all that kind of stuff. Automated a bunch of that. Then, I got into automating a bunch of mine [unintelligible] around the world.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> You've been through a lot!<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And- so, GE came down; they offered me a job… up in upstate New York. Cold country in Utica.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I went to automating tanker ships, so you could run 'em from the bridge and have nobody downstairs.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs'']
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Just someone else involved-<br>
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Want some water?<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, uh... I went down to build some automatic test equipment for the ICBM [unintelligible] Intercontinental Ballistic Missile.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> No, thank you.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And, uh... then, uh- then, um, I got into… I developed [unintelligible] I found out that there was very few people like me in the world that had this natural… inclination… for logic.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Anyway, like the ands, and ors, and the what-ifs, and the what-if-nots.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Nobody knows how, 'cause we haven't done it before.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I developed a system… called a [inaudible] that stands [unintelligible]that's an acronym.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Uh-huh.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Hardware-oriented Y2K pile of junk!<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> We'd done some of this automatic test equipment down here. "Why don't you come up there?" "Well, okay!"
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Similar fortune… was in… ''hardware''.<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Oh, okay.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I went up there for three years and helped develop the, uh, automatic…equipment… for testing the missiles, and… all the guidance systems, and things… in the [unintelligible]
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Hey, everybody– I got [unintelligible]<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Oh, thank you.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> What this enables-<br>
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [unintelligible, but clearly addressing Emily]<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But- but I got- I was a soldier, true and tried, 'cause I was born in Texas and raised in Alabama.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''giggles''] Thank you.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> What this enables everybody to do- and me, too, but I was lazy…<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Was to write down on- on paper– and design on paper from the start– a sequence of parallel lines.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I was in North Carolina first. And then, I hit upstate New York, and I froze to death. [''chuckles'']
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And up to that point, nobody had a way of writin' it down on paper.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs''] Yeah, that must be really different! [''laughs again'']
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''half-stifles a genuine laugh'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And they ''still'' don't, really! [unintelligible]<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Well, after three years, I said "I'm going back to somethin' [unintelligible]" Well, GE- I didn't know it then, but I had a real, natural ''draw''… to the mountains.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But that [unintelligible] to mind, horse and buggy.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Elevator-type system that's over a 5,000 ft hole!<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And I knew about Roanoke, since I'd been in, uh, [unintelligible] So, I wanted to come back to Roanoke, and GE had plants there.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Then, I got into, uh, designing… ''scooter'' machines, which fused all the plastic around wires, and things like that…<br>
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And… they were there developing- specializing in industrial automation. Except they didn't done any ''automation'' yet. They were just industrial-controlled.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Scooters. And then, I got into... die-cast machines… and the machines automating ''them''. They make things like carburetors, and cans, and whatever.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I got into ''plastics''… and even the ''plastics'' were [unintelligible] automating their machines. In the process, I ended up with about… ''two'' patents [unintelligible] in ''my'' name that ''they'' own. And all this… dumb stuff. And I saw the first 2-liter Coke bottle…<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I finagled a transfer back to Roanoke, and… I got there just at the time when they were startin'… to make… any kind of automation controls for engines.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Come off the line in New England.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, I got into what they call "a new business area". And I got to do ''all'' the great things. All my- I- I really had it right. I was in the right places at the right time.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> [unintelligible] on it, and all these [unintelligible] microvalves, and ''doors'', and- and, um... ''shutters'', and stuff like that made out of plastic. All this stuff we got plastic.<br>
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [unintelligible] in your frames!<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah. [''laughs politely'']
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yep! [''giggles'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Including, uh, Tupperware.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Because I am very ''logically-''inclined.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Can't… go without Tupperware…<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, then [unintelligible] ''finalized'' and- and perfected, basically, this [unintelligible] process…<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> That doesn't really happen nowadays, with the economy…
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Of design and documentation. [unintelligible] It came time for me to retire. And so, I did! [''chuckles'']<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Yeah– and I- I'm a logician.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, now, I'm ''un-''indated with all this stuff I did, and I don't know whether I did the world a good thing or not.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> I think you did!<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But I can't-<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Oddly enough, I never learned how a transistor even works… on records. But I ''use'' 'em all the time.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> You did a lot of things.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I can't spell the word "cat" without a K in it.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.

-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Uh, yeah, well, y'know, [[Chris and his ego|I'm proud of him anyway]], for his [[fail|accompliment]]- accom-''plish-''ments.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I use 'em. I'm retired now, a long time. But… when I started out with this group, and the first thing we got into was trying to automate a steel mill… for rolling [unintelligible] steel for your cars.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Uh-huh.<br>
-[pause]<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> He's got a ''half-''brother who's a doctor.<br>
-<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> ''His'' son.<br>
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Well, we did that. And then, I got into… how to roll papers so you could get Kleenex.
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> ''Oh...'' okay.<br>
-<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And he's got a- and I have a daughter, who is his- his half-sister… that's a… Phi Beta Kappa outta UVA Atlantic.<br>
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''giggles'']
-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> ''Oh...'' [''laughs politely'']<br>
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> And, of course, y'know, he's the guy that designed the controls for all the plastic water machines, so without him at this time, you couldn't have the plastic for your glasses.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And- and then- then, I got into- I was in the new business area where we could do the first one… and then, somebody else would take over and do the others.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And-- and then, I got into managing a paper mill. But then, I got into the… industry of- of, uh, like [unintelligible] warehousing, automatic transition, like BART: Bay Area Rapid Transit.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Automatic railroads and all that kind of stuff. Automated a bunch of that. Then, I got into automating a bunch of mine [unintelligible] around the world.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> You've been through a lot!
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I went to automating tanker ships, so you could run 'em from the bridge and have nobody downstairs.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Just someone else involved-
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Want some water?
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> No, thank you.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And, uh... then, uh- then, um, I got into… I developed [unintelligible] I found out that there was very few people like me in the world that had this natural… inclination… for logic.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Anyway, like the ands, and ors, and the what-ifs, and the what-if-nots.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I developed a system… called a [inaudible] that stands [unintelligible]that's an acronym.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Uh-huh.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Hardware-oriented Y2K pile of junk!
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Similar fortune… was in… ''hardware''.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Oh, okay.
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Hey, everybody– I got [unintelligible]
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Oh, thank you.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> What this enables-
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [unintelligible, but clearly addressing Emily]
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''giggles''] Thank you.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> What this enables everybody to do- and me, too, but I was lazy…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Was to write down on- on paper– and design on paper from the start– a sequence of parallel lines.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And up to that point, nobody had a way of writin' it down on paper.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''half-stifles a genuine laugh'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And they ''still'' don't, really! [unintelligible]
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But that [unintelligible] to mind, horse and buggy.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Elevator-type system that's over a 5,000 ft hole!
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Then, I got into, uh, designing… ''scooter'' machines, which fused all the plastic around wires, and things like that…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yeah.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Scooters. And then, I got into... die-cast machines… and the machines automating ''them''. They make things like carburetors, and cans, and whatever.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And then, I got into ''plastics''… and even the ''plastics'' were [unintelligible] automating their machines. In the process, I ended up with about… ''two'' patents [unintelligible] in ''my'' name that ''they'' own. And all this… dumb stuff. And I saw the first 2-liter Coke bottle…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Come off the line in New England.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> [unintelligible] on it, and all these [unintelligible] microvalves, and ''doors'', and- and, um... ''shutters'', and stuff like that made out of plastic. All this stuff we got plastic.
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> [unintelligible] in your frames!
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Yep! [''giggles'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Including, uh, Tupperware.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Can't… go without Tupperware…
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, then [unintelligible] ''finalized'' and- and perfected, basically, this [unintelligible] process…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> Of design and documentation. [unintelligible] It came time for me to retire. And so, I did! [''chuckles'']
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs politely'']
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> So, now, I'm ''un-''indated with all this stuff I did, and I don't know whether I did the world a good thing or not.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> I think you did!
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> But I can't-
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> You did a lot of things.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> I can't spell the word "cat" without a K in it.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> [''laughs'']
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Uh, yeah, well, y'know, [[Chris and his ego|I'm proud of him anyway]], for his [[fail|accompliment]]- accom-''plish-''ments.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Uh-huh.
+[pause]
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> He's got a ''half-''brother who's a doctor.
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> ''His'' son.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> ''Oh...'' okay.
+<font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> And he's got a- and I have a daughter, who is his- his half-sister… that's a… Phi Beta Kappa outta UVA Atlantic.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> ''Oh...'' [''laughs politely'']
 <font color="#545454">'''Bob:'''</font> She's workin' for the federal government, and she's got a PHD now. She's working somewhere for the federal government. All these math people… I dunno.

-<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Mm-hmm?<br>

+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> She's a Mormon. Found that out after I met her. But we cam- but we- but we could became good friends and I gave her, uh, you know, gave her a going away/birthday party before she left for Utah…
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Uh-huh!
+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> For her 20th birthday… and actually her- actual- and actually her friends, uh, her friends and I got together and put together the party. [emphatically] I k- I bought the cake.

+<font color="#4682B4">'''Chris:'''</font> Uh, no, I don't think she moved to Utah, I don't even remember where she moved to.
+<font color="#CD5555">'''Emily:'''</font> Oh...
