like on the 534 01:13:52,041 --> 01:13:53,250 bottom of my GI Joe guys, 535 01:13:53,541 --> 01:13:55,250 I actually carved my 536 01:13:55,250 --> 01:13:56,750 initials into their feet. 537 01:13:57,083 --> 01:13:58,458 If anybody remembers GI Joe's, they have 538 01:13:58,458 --> 01:13:59,583 feet and they had those 539 01:13:59,583 --> 01:14:00,708 holes in them so they would 540 01:14:00,708 --> 01:14:01,375 stand up. 541 01:14:01,791 --> 01:14:02,000 Right. 542 01:14:02,708 --> 01:14:05,500 Well, in that little area, which is 10 543 01:14:05,500 --> 01:14:08,541 millimeters, maybe I use an 544 01:14:08,541 --> 01:14:10,333 exacto knife that I use for 545 01:14:10,333 --> 01:14:11,875 a lot of my model making and whatnot. 546 01:14:11,875 --> 01:14:14,750 And I etched my initials 547 01:14:14,750 --> 01:14:15,958 into the bottom of those. 548 01:14:16,375 --> 01:14:17,500 Some of the bigger ones I'd use like a 549 01:14:17,500 --> 01:14:18,166 marker or something like 550 01:14:18,166 --> 01:14:19,208 that, but clearly where 551 01:14:19,208 --> 01:14:20,041 you couldn't see it 552 01:14:20,041 --> 01:14:21,000 because I didn't want to ruin it. 553 01:14:21,416 --> 01:14:24,125 But then I knew like, no, no, no, my 554 01:14:24,125 --> 01:14:25,041 initials are on that. 555 01:14:25,041 --> 01:14:25,583 That's mine. 556 01:14:26,541 --> 01:14:29,083 Anyways, that was the Star Keys. 557 01:14:30,208 --> 01:14:32,208 Next to them, that one changed over. 558 01:14:32,208 --> 01:14:33,541 But the next to them, I used to babysit 559 01:14:33,541 --> 01:14:34,375 their kid for a while. 560 01:14:34,833 --> 01:14:35,458 Greatest thing ever. 561 01:14:35,458 --> 01:14:37,166 I would get $5 after school. 562 01:14:37,416 --> 01:14:37,916 I don't know, like 563 01:14:37,916 --> 01:14:38,916 fourth grade, fifth grade. 564 01:14:38,916 --> 01:14:40,541 I would babysit him for like two hours. 565 01:14:40,541 --> 01:14:42,541 I would get $5 and I 566 01:14:42,541 --> 01:14:43,541 would get as many pops. 567 01:14:43,833 --> 01:14:45,541 No, I think I got one root beer. 568 01:14:45,583 --> 01:14:46,166 I think we were allowed 569 01:14:46,166 --> 01:14:47,541 each to have one root beer. 570 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:50,291 Right? 571 01:14:51,083 --> 01:14:52,750 Across the street from us was the cooks. 572 01:14:53,416 --> 01:14:54,125 Matt Cook, he was another 573 01:14:54,125 --> 01:14:54,916 really good friend of mine. 574 01:14:55,583 --> 01:14:57,583 That's where I watched Thriller when the 575 01:14:57,583 --> 01:14:59,291 video Michael Jackson Thriller came out. 576 01:14:59,291 --> 01:14:59,666 Remember that? 577 01:14:59,666 --> 01:15:00,291 It was a huge deal. 578 01:15:00,583 --> 01:15:01,833 It was like 20 minute 579 01:15:01,833 --> 01:15:02,791 video or something like that. 580 01:15:03,041 --> 01:15:03,916 I don't remember what it was. 581 01:15:03,916 --> 01:15:04,458 It was long. 582 01:15:04,666 --> 01:15:06,041 But it was a big deal. 583 01:15:06,250 --> 01:15:06,958 That's where I watched 584 01:15:06,958 --> 01:15:08,000 Thriller, the Star Keys. 585 01:15:08,125 --> 01:15:09,208 In fact, we were good friends. 586 01:15:09,208 --> 01:15:10,583 I mean, the cooks, we were really good 587 01:15:10,583 --> 01:15:11,583 friends with them for a while. 588 01:15:11,916 --> 01:15:13,541 That was the people we 589 01:15:13,541 --> 01:15:14,625 would throw the football with. 590 01:15:15,791 --> 01:15:19,708 The dads, like Neil Starkey, Jim, and 591 01:15:19,708 --> 01:15:21,041 then I can't remember 592 01:15:21,041 --> 01:15:22,833 David Cook's dad's name. 593 01:15:24,375 --> 01:15:25,291 Matt Cook's dad's name. 594 01:15:25,291 --> 01:15:25,875 But we would actually. 595 01:15:25,875 --> 01:15:26,041 Do you actually have 596 01:15:26,041 --> 01:15:26,666 a singer next to you? 597 01:15:26,666 --> 01:15:28,875 That was like the Sesame Street moment. 598 01:15:29,291 -->

you know, as long 1296 01:32:21,583 --> 01:32:22,291 as we're having babies, 1297 01:32:22,500 --> 01:32:24,833 we may as well, you know, finish it up. 1298 01:32:25,291 --> 01:32:26,291 So anyways, I mean, 1299 01:32:26,291 --> 01:32:27,333 yeah, Al Roost was great. 1300 01:32:28,500 --> 01:32:29,791 We had a couple of neighbors there, a 1301 01:32:29,791 --> 01:32:30,375 couple that we just 1302 01:32:30,375 --> 01:32:31,916 didn't fit into and then down 1303 01:32:31,916 --> 01:32:32,500 here to Texas. 1304 01:32:32,791 --> 01:32:33,000 Yeah. 1305 01:32:33,500 --> 01:32:33,750 Right. 1306 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:35,333 And we've been here for 1307 01:32:35,333 --> 01:32:38,875 literally almost, almost a decade. 1308 01:32:39,375 --> 01:32:39,916 Not almost. 1309 01:32:40,541 --> 01:32:41,000 Oh my gosh. 1310 01:32:41,541 --> 01:32:43,250 It's been over a decade. 1311 01:32:43,708 --> 01:32:44,166 Over a decade. 1312 01:32:44,458 --> 01:32:44,958 So we moved. 1313 01:32:44,958 --> 01:32:45,458 2015. 1314 01:32:45,875 --> 01:32:46,083 Yep. 1315 01:32:46,250 --> 01:32:49,166 We moved in February of, beginning of, 1316 01:32:49,541 --> 01:32:51,208 sorry, end of January 2015. 1317 01:32:51,541 --> 01:32:53,333 And we never thought, I mean, did you 1318 01:32:53,333 --> 01:32:54,291 ever think in a million 1319 01:32:54,291 --> 01:32:55,250 years you live in Texas? 1320 01:32:55,666 --> 01:32:55,875 No. 1321 01:32:57,625 --> 01:32:58,000 Me either. 1322 01:32:58,500 --> 01:32:59,041 Me either. 1323 01:32:59,708 --> 01:33:00,916 Like, of all the places. 1324 01:33:01,208 --> 01:33:01,458 Yeah. 1325 01:33:01,458 --> 01:33:03,250 In fact, we joked when we had our 1326 01:33:03,250 --> 01:33:04,625 daughter, because her name, 1327 01:33:04,625 --> 01:33:06,166 if you were to put a Southern 1328 01:33:06,166 --> 01:33:09,083 accent with her name, it's 1329 01:33:09,083 --> 01:33:10,416 very Southern Belle sounding. 1330 01:33:10,750 --> 01:33:11,708 And so we're like, well, we can never 1331 01:33:11,708 --> 01:33:12,291 live in the South 1332 01:33:12,291 --> 01:33:13,750 because, you know, that's, that's 1333 01:33:13,750 --> 01:33:15,083 not really the intent of her name. 1334 01:33:16,500 --> 01:33:17,166 Well, guess what? 1335 01:33:17,500 --> 01:33:18,375 The irony is. 1336 01:33:19,250 --> 01:33:19,458 Yeah. 1337 01:33:19,625 --> 01:33:20,083 Here we are. 1338 01:33:20,458 --> 01:33:21,958 Well, we almost did because my 1339 01:33:21,958 --> 01:33:24,125 grandmother's name is Ava Nell. 1340 01:33:25,041 --> 01:33:25,250 Right. 1341 01:33:25,541 --> 01:33:27,791 And we almost named our daughter Ava 1342 01:33:27,791 --> 01:33:30,458 Belle, but we didn't. 1343 01:33:30,458 --> 01:33:30,666 Yeah. 1344 01:33:31,500 --> 01:33:32,625 Then it really would have been. 1345 01:33:32,625 --> 01:33:34,333 Which would have been very Texan. 1346 01:33:34,875 --> 01:33:35,625 Very Southern. 1347 01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:37,916 A cute little name, but she's definitely, 1348 01:33:38,333 --> 01:33:39,958 her name is definitely what she is. 1349 01:33:40,416 --> 01:33:41,083 Yes. 1350 01:33:42,250 --> 01:33:42,458 So. 1351 01:33:42,708 --> 01:33:42,916 Yeah. 1352 01:33:44,208 --> 01:33:45,833 And I don't think people say usually, you 1353 01:33:45,833 --> 01:33:46,583 know, because that 1354 01:33:46,583 --> 01:33:47,750 was her first and middle 1355 01:33:47,958 --> 01:33:48,041 name. 1356 01:33:48,041 --> 01:33:49,833 So I don't think they usually call her by 1357 01:33:49,833 --> 01:33:50,708 her first and middle name. 1358 01:33:50,708 --> 01:33:51,666 Things are all backwards here. 1359 01:33:51,875 --> 01:33:52,208 It was weird. 1360 01:33:52,208 --> 01:33:52,833 I mean, we never 1361 01:33:52,833 --> 01:33:53,875 thought we'd live in Texas. 1362 01:33:53,875 --> 01:33:54,458 You never thought that? 1363 01:33:54,750 --> 01:33:54,958 No. 1364 01:33:55,333 --> 01:33:56,583 I was born in Dallas. 1365 01:33:57,208 --> 01:33:57,583 Yeah. 1366 01:33:57,583 --> 01:33:59,458 Which is, which was the weird oddity. 1367 01:33:59,458 --> 01:34:01,958 So it's almost like, people are like, 1368 01:34:01,958 --> 01:34:03,250 like when I'm here, I 1369 01:34:03,250 --> 01:34:04,458 hate the question now when 1370 01:34:04,625 --> 01:34:06,500 I, when I live in Texas, people are like, 1371 01:34:06,500 --> 01:34:07,125 where were you born? 1372 01:34:07,833 --> 01:34:09,875 I'm like, Dallas. 1373 01:34:11,791 --> 01:34:13,625 With a huge caveat here. 1374 01:34:14,291 --> 01:34:15,208 I grew up in Colorado. 1375 01:34:15,208 --> 01:34:17,291 I consider myself a Colorado boy because 1376 01:34:17,291 --> 01:34:18,541 I lived in Colorado for 30 years. 1377 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:19,125 Yeah. 1378 01:34:19,125 --> 01:34:20,666 And we moved to Colorado and I was like, 1379 01:34:21,083 --> 01:34:22,500 before I was a year old. 1380 01:34:22,500 --> 01:34:22,750 Yeah. 1381 01:34:23,041 --> 01:34:23,250 Right. 1382 01:34:23,416 --> 01:34:25,833 So I am not, I'm a Colorado boy. 1383 01:34:26,791 --> 01:34:28,875 So we're, so we moved to the other house, 1384 01:34:28,875 --> 01:34:30,708 I guess over a decade ago. 1385 01:34:30,958 --> 01:34:31,125 Yeah. 1386 01:34:31,458 --> 01:34:33,916 And that was a, that was really a pretty 1387 01:34:33,916 --> 01:34:34,791 nice neighborhood too. 1388 01:34:34,791 --> 01:34:35,625 That was a little bit of a 1389 01:34:35,625 --> 01:34:36,625 Sesame Street neighborhood. 1390 01:34:37,125 --> 01:34:38,875 It was the kids. 1391 01:34:38,875 --> 01:34:42,000 I mean, the kids played outside and 1392 01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:43,000 everyone was in the streets. 1393 01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:44,250 We lived in a cul-de-sac. 1394 01:34:44,250 --> 01:34:45,500 So we had a cul-de-sac at the end there. 1395 01:34:45,500 --> 01:34:47,583 We had the Urnsons and the Deepen Chinsos 1396 01:34:47,583 --> 01:34:48,458 right across from us. 1397 01:34:48,458 --> 01:34:50,916 Both of them our age, maybe a little bit, 1398 01:34:50,916 --> 01:34:51,500 a couple of years 1399 01:34:51,500 --> 01:34:53,166

01:35:02,208 --> 01:35:03,708 It was the type of neighborhood that we 1407 01:35:03,708 --> 01:35:05,375 would send our kids outside. 1408 01:35:06,250 --> 01:35:06,500 Yes. 1409 01:35:06,791 -->

1555 01:38:54,250 --> 01:38:56,083 one because it had like a 1556 01:38:57,250 --> 01:38:58,041 what do you call that thing? 1557 01:38:58,041 --> 01:38:59,875 It was like a tower or a turret. 1558
