0:00.0 | When I was about five years old, we lived on 205 West 88th Street. |
0:05.2 | That's when we got out. The apartment was rated on 89th Street because of book making activity. |
0:10.4 | So my mom moved to 88th Street, 205 West 88th Street. Every three, every other day, my mom |
0:17.9 | was the one that got me hooked on Chinese food. We'd walked down the corner of 88th Street and |
0:22.7 | hook a fucking left on 88th towards 87th and right in the middle of the street with a little |
0:27.6 | Chinese restaurant that was a fucking delicious. That's wonton soup you have had. I mean, |
0:31.8 | that's why I discovered real Chinese food with the metal of the whole thing. My mother was in there |
0:36.8 | three nights a week and we probably got food delivered one night a week. My mom might take him to walk |

1:18.0 | soup and the pork fried rice and the egg roll. Well in this particular day the fucking dude comes over |
1:24.2 | and he brings the wrong order to my mother. My mother's got half a bag on it and she takes the |
1:29.2 | fucking fork and she stabs with the fucking fork and the Chinese guy starts yelling and all these |
1:34.5 | Chinese guys on the back and my mom pulls the fucking knife and I'm in the middle of it and my mom |
1:40.4 | was like we're gonna walk out of here but there was one Chinese dude that liked my mom and he came |
1:44.8 | over when he walked this out and we were 69 from the from the place that's it and you're not a lot |
