PART B_2

As I look back, I remember when we were growing up, we had more free time in school.
Yeah, and we could think about what we wanted to do when we grew up.
So, Ron, what did that look like for you?

I used to dream of being an astronaut. Then there’s the fact that there’s a lot of math involved.
Yeah, in my case, from long as I could remember,
I always wanted to be a rock star, like a musician.

Yeah, so today, when you’re working, do you still kind of think about that?
No, that’s beyond me, and I have no intention to go after that dream
at this time in my life.

Well, it’s kind of cool, though, because I believe you would be famous if you didn’t stop making music.
Thanks for believing in me.
Anyway, are you free this weekend? Would you like to hang out?

Certainly!
