| 0:00.0 | I really, really, I promised myself when I was younger that I would not become this sort |
| 0:28.7 | of person. Really? And I still don't want to become this sort of person. I don't want to be |
| 0:32.9 | the sort of old person who thinks things are crappy and getting crappier all the time and the |
| 0:39.1 | hell's going, the world's going to hell and I am bad as getting kids today. I didn't want to be |
| 0:42.4 | that guy because every generation, you know, lots of old people get that way. Right. Yeah, and I |
| 0:48.2 | understand why go on. Yeah, look around you. Yeah. There's some extraordinary things going on |
| 0:56.2 | that are just weird people not getting married and having kids 20% of millennials claim they have |
| 1:02.1 | no friends. The shootings, the politics, the media, the internet, just things that didn't |

| 2:05.4 | And the moment your putting comes around and you're making everything, you can't hit an iron |
| 2:10.1 | to save your life. It's just the nature of the game. It's a hard game. To say, I wish it was like |
