0:00.0 | Hey America, Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday to you and many more. |
0:17.7 | A lovely day. It's actually the 4th of July as I'm taping this. You're probably watching |
0:23.1 | it later in the week. I hope you're not burnt out on 4th July sentiments. Just came from |
0:30.6 | the beach. The sun is setting on a breezy sunny California day. I'll get on the beach with |
0:37.7 | Fitzsimmons, Fitzgibbons, Gibbons and Gubbins. Gibbons is girlfriend in town. His daughter |
0:43.3 | came out. My lovely wife went in the ocean a little bit. It was cold but not bad. We're going |
0:53.9 | off to a friend's house. Going on the roof, watch some fireworks tonight and that's it. Maybe |

2:11.8 | Drunk. I'm 16. And so I stopped. I got off the subway and what I thought was the place looked |
2:19.7 | around. Couldn't find them. Got on the subway, went to another stop, got off, found them. It |
