But maybe more dumber people. They might do it. And another thing, sometimes I don't want to go to sleep yet! But no...we gotta have the moon. Gotta have it. Wouldn't it be nice if we could just have the sun? I mean I have a great tan. You could say I have the best tan. People love it. I have the best tan. I look great. I feel great. I've never felt better. I might live forever, doctors say. I think I might be aging in reverse. You know, that Benjamin Bratt disease. Boy, wasn't he great for inventing the dollar bill and kites? Love kites...they're great. Dykes, not so much! And we love the wind, don't we? Kites and dykes, both love wind. Can't fly the kites without the wind, right? And you know the climate is doing so great now. We have the wind. The water, the fire, the earth. It's amazing, I tell ya. What was the question again? Yea, I slept ok."
