Mr Robbins?
:16:05
What?
:16:09
Value this time in your life, kids.
:16:12
This is the time in your life
when you still have your choices.

:16:15
It goes by so fast.
:16:17
When you're a teenager, you think
you can do anything, and you do.

:16:20
Your 20s are a blur. 30s, you raise
your family, you make a little money...

:16:25
...and you think to yourself
"What happened to my 20s?"

:16:28
40s, you grow a little pot belly, you grow
another chin. The music gets too loud.

:16:34
An old girlfriend from high school
becomes a grandmother.

:16:37
50s, you have a minor surgery. You'll
call it a "procedure", but it's a surgery.

:16:42
60s, you'll have a major surgery.
The music is still loud...

:16:45
...but you can't hear it anyway.
:16:47
70s, you and the wife
retire to Fort Lauderdale.

:16:52
You eat dinner at two in the afternoon...
:16:54
...lunch around ten,
breakfast the night before.

:16:57
You spend most of your time in malls
looking for the ultimate soft yoghurt...

:17:01
...and muttering
"How come the kids don't call?"

:17:04
The 80s, you'll have a major stroke. You
end up babbling to a Jamaican nurse...

:17:08
...that your wife can't stand
but who you call "Momma".

:17:12
Any questions?
:17:16
Danny was embarrassed
to tell the class what my job is.

:17:19
They're nine! They get excited about the
guy who gives them change at the arcade.

:17:25
You just happen to have one
of those jobs that's difficult to...

:17:29
Believe that a grown man
does without losing his mind.

:17:33
Well, what is my job?
I sell advertising time on the radio.

:17:37
Basically, I sell air.
:17:39
At least my father was an upholsterer.
He made a sofa, coach you can sit on it.
Something tangible.

:17:44
What can I point to?
Where's my work? It's air. I sell air.

:17:48
So what are you saying?
You wanna quit?

:17:51
How can I quit?
I'm trapped.

:17:54
- You're trapped?
- Yeah. You want to send Holly...

:17:57
...to a performing arts school.
- She's got talent.
