Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for February 02, 2014
Transcript:
Petey: Why're you always dancing around on that manhole cover? Alice: It's like a stage! Alice: You can get on it and show off what you're good at. C'mon, try it! Petey: But- Petey: I feel silly. Petey: You know what drives me crazy? When people say, "Be in the moment." I hate being in the moment. Petey: I always wish it was last week, or last Saturday, or the day before Christmas. I'm never happy when its now. Petey: I wish I could be happy whenever it's now. Petey: That's um- Petey: That's all. Alice: So what you're good at is fretting. Dill: Is he through? I'd like to show off how good I've gotten at blowing spit bubbles.

Commentary by Petey, for the thoughtful fretful introspective folks. Push by Alice, for the eager stage-struck show-offs. Aspiration by Dill, for the slightly odd but endearing individualists.

Be careful, Petey. Raised manhole covers are merely a gateway riser to soap boxes!

Wow! I’m glad someone else has that talent. I just hope he’s not better at blowing spit bubbles than I am. I’d be jealous!
