What do you think? You feel safe in here? I wouldn't go through that nasty. My hands are full of these things.

You know, it's something to have this ability to sit here and actually talk. The only way we got to this point tonight was 'cause we tended that co all day long. That was a chore, yeah, but now we can sit here just like homework practice did. We can appreciate what we did today. We can plan for the next day.
