:45:01
- Adam, my second, was an orthodontist.
- How many have you had?
:45:05
Two. Adam had a massive coronary.
Rudy was an alcoholic.
:45:09
- More gravy?
- No, no, no. It's too heavy.
:45:11
Ah, what are you worried about?
It's delicious. Try it.
:45:15
- Where are you from, Pearl?
- Florida.
:45:18
Oh, we lived all over the place when I
was younger, but I prefer a warm climate.
:45:23
I even lived in Australia for a year.
:45:25
With my sister Fay, when Adam died.
:45:28
I went nuts. It's dead there.
:45:31
I was in Sydney, Australia, once.
:45:33
Oh. Was I lying? Did you like it?
:45:37
It was just a vacation.
I was only there a couple of days.
:45:40
Lucky. It's like a morgue. Nothing to do
at night, no pizzazz. I couldn't take that.
:45:46
Here's a woman who could
go dancing every night.
:45:49
You know what I say: You only live once,
but once is enough if you play it right.
:45:53
- Do you have any children, Pearl?
- Oh, yes. I have two sons.
:45:57
Lewis and John.
:45:59
Lewis is in real estate.
John runs an art gallery.
:46:02
Oh?
:46:04
In the lobby in Caesars Palace
in Las Vegas.
:46:06
It's not exactly a gallery,
it's more a concession.
:46:11
- Paintings of clowns on black velvet?
- That's right, junk.
:46:14
Oh, it's pure junk, but people like it. They
get a kick out of it. He does very nicely.
:46:20
- Pearl collects African art.
- Oh. Oh, I love black ebony.
:46:25
I own some statues.
Actually, they're from Trinidad.
:46:28
Oh, I love those real primitive statues
with the big hips and the big breasts.
:46:32
Oh, I even have some voodoo
masks. I believe in that stuff.
:46:36
I could tell your fortune,
but I need cards. Later, maybe.
:46:39
This couple we met were raving about it,
:46:42
so I cabled from the office to get tickets.
I'm glad I did. It was fabulous.
:46:46
We thought it was interesting.
:46:48
But depressing as hell. It was
pessimistic to the point of futility.
:46:51
Fashionable pessimism
is all the rage nowadays.
:46:54
When they sentenced those Algerians
to death, I thought it was a good ending.
:46:58
You call that fashionable,
but it's hard to argue
