You know, those communist college kids? Most of my clients these days. They're a spoiled bunch, but I do get some great conversations with some of them. They're so far apart from my generation, it's like they're actually foreigners. My opinion, my opinion.

People say these kids are like the hippies. I couldn't disagree more. With hippies there was this kind of warped up patriotism, I don't know. Youth these days are just plain rejectant of their own country... is this a word? Rejectant? I just find them more authentic, that's all.

People tend to be the result of their generation's culture, "zeitgeist" yeah, that's the word isn't it? My generation, they're afraid. They've been afraid all their life. This fixation on safety... it's sad.

I listen to the radio a lot, and watch television. I used to go to a bar by the **th every weekend, but most of my drinking buddies stopped drinking or, you know, died. It happens when you get to my age.

I'm not afraid of death, why would I?

But really, those kids. They're a riot.
