Hey, remember when our project team went to Canada and tested the mixpoint?\u00a0 And how we had to label all the crud-layered pipes that were there so we knew how to reconnect everything when we were done with our tests?\u00a0 And then how I had to ask the operator to dump our demo batch of motion-picture emulsion in the middle of the make ($10,000 worth of silver down the drain!) because I made a mistake writing the formula?<\/p>\n
Hey, remember when we were in my dorm room on Rob’s 21st birthday?\u00a0 And somehow you came up with a chord progression on your guitar, and Rob improvised lyrics for it and turned it into the “Tuna Fish Sandwich” song?\u00a0 And then how, weeks later, you and I recorded it as a guitar duo, with words to be added at some point, but they never were?<\/p>\n
Hey, remember when we were all swinging on that really-long swing your dad built in your back yard?\u00a0 And we would pump our legs to go higher and higher, and then when we got to the very top of the arc, we would let go of the swing and make up something to yell out like “Superman!” or “Birdie Tweet Tweet” as we flew through the air on our way to the ground?\u00a0 And how your next-door neighbor Kirk Graham broke his arm doing this with us?<\/p>\n
Hey, remember when we were making crank phone calls on the pink phone in my sister’s bedroom?\u00a0 And we were taping all the calls on your tape recorder so we could play them back and laugh?\u00a0 And how, on one call, we told one woman she was an “old biddy lady” as we giggled away?\u00a0 And then, how we got really scared when we couldn’t hang up!\u00a0 Well, we tried to hang up but every time we picked up the phone again, she was still on the line!\u00a0 And how we realized we had to tell her we were sorry so she didn’t report us and get us into trouble?\u00a0 And then, how relieved we were when she finally hung up!\u00a0 And then we made more calls!<\/p>\n
