Frazz: It's a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Caulfield: I don't even like to visit there. Mr. Spaetzle: What are you talking about? New York? Las Vegas? Caulfield: The past. Mr. Spaetzle: The past is nice! Caulfield: Maybe for old people . Mine seems to be mostly busy work in stuffy classrooms while it's nice out.
