I have had my dog 11 years. My dog is called Bandit.

[Speaker 1] I am thinking about getting a pit bull.

[Speaker 2] Well, pit bulls are great dogs! I have never met one I didn't like. Do you have one in mind?

[Speaker 1] No, but I would really like to adopt from an animal shelter.  So many needy animals.  What sort of guitar music do you like to play?  And what do you like to cook?  Do you cook fish, ha, ha?

[Speaker 2] I do cook fish. Just finished having sword fish for dinner! There are alot of guitar music types I enjoy. Steely Dan being one.

[Speaker 1] Sword fish is good!  I mainly go lake fishing but I buy sword fish sometimes.  I love Steely Dan.  I also love Jimmy Page's guitar playing.  Incidentally, wasn't Bandit the name of Jonny Quest's dog?

[Speaker 1] I caught a nice sized fish when I went fishing at the lake last weekend.

[Speaker 2] That is great. What kind of fish was it? What did you do with the fish?

[Speaker 1] It was a sword fish! I was so excited. Probably give it to my dad to cook. How's the healthy meatloaf coming along?

[Speaker 2] Your dad must have made a yummy fish dish with it. The healthy meatloaf is getting better. I tried to replace one third of meat with tofu. It turned out very good.

[Speaker 1] That's exciting! Sometimes those replacements can make a huge difference in a good way. That's why I love those soy burgers.

[Speaker 2] Do you make soy burgers yourself, or do you buy them? I am wondering if they use soy beans or tofu.

[Speaker 1] I do both, depending on how lazy I'm feeling. There are so many types I'm sure you can find both. If you have a can of black beans and a potato masher you can fry up some good ones yourself in no time!

[Speaker 2] That sounds pretty easy and yummy. I have to try it. I use a lot of tofu. Do you like tofu?

[Speaker 1] I do. A lot of people don't, but I feel like it's because they don't really know what to do with it!

[Speaker 2] You are right. When it comes to tofu, you either love it or hate it. Have you found a dog you are interested in to adopt?

[Speaker 1] I am playing a game of Mortal Kombat, want to join in?

[Speaker 2] For sure, can you give me a few minutes to grab a snack. How long do you have?

[Speaker 1] Great! What snacks are you going to grab? I've got ages before my next shift, I'm free to play all day

[Speaker 2] Probably a burger and a milkshake, I'll reheat it in the microwave quickly. I won't have long before the kids want me again LOL

[Speaker 1] Haha I'm surprised you get any time at all to yourself these days!! Do you get the kids working on the farm?

[Speaker 2] They help out quite a bit, that's where they are now, with my wife. I can hide and game until they find me. I'm just loading up now.

[Speaker 1] I'm guessing you don't help out on the farm much anymore with your weight issue? Which character is your favourite to play as in Mortal Kombat?

[Speaker 2] I love a bit of Scorpion, what about you? I try and stick to driving the machinery now, let the youngsters do the harder work.

[Speaker 1] Kitana is my favourite, she plays so smooth and has the best finishing moves i think! That sounds like a great plan - do you have tractors and combines?

[Speaker 2] Yea, we have both, although the combine is more problematic, I'm quite good at fixing it now, always on YouTube watching help videos.

[Speaker 1] Is it a really old machine? they do tend to break down more, but also very simple and easy to fix :) Do you watch any other stuff on Youtube in your free time?

[Speaker 2] I wish I had time to watch more stuff. Once the kids have grown up. Yea, it's an older machine, but still manages, most of the time

I live in Alabama. I am 53 years old. I live on a farm. I am obese. I don't have friends.

I have 12 children.  The kids help my wife and I on the farm. I game while the kids are doing farm chores.  I let the youngsters do the harder work and I drive the machinery on the farm.

I love Scorpion in Mortal Kombat.

We have tractors and combines. The combine needs to be fixed often. I fixed it while watching Youtube and I wish I had more time to watch YouTube.

[Speaker 1] Have you spent much time working on the farm the last few days?

[Speaker 2] Almost every waking hour. There's always something to do on the farm.

[Speaker 1] I imagine that you must lead a very busy farm.  Could you tell me about some of the chores you need to do?  Working on a farm sounds like back-breaking labor, but it also seems so rewarding.

[Speaker 2] We start the morning by milking cows and picking the eggs from the chickens. Then we spend the day watering crops and feeding the other animals. Nothing I would rather do. Hopefully I get some time to play Mortal Kombat later today. Do you like to play?

[Speaker 1] Maybe I could come by your farm sometime and you could show me the ropes?  I love playing Mortal Kombat!  It's one of my favorite games!  I always smile when I hear "Finish Him!" lol

[Speaker 2] You are welcome to come by anytime! Just be sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty! Haha! That's my favorite part also! So excited when I hear that! Scorpion has my favorite finishing move. What is your favorite finishing move?

[Speaker 1] I like Kitana's finishing move the best.  I've been playing the game for years!  I also really like Sub Zero.

[Speaker 2] Love both of theirs also! Sometime I just like to watch YouTube to see some of their moves!

[Speaker 1] YES!  Oh my gosh, I thought I was the only one who did that!  I like to watch Let's Plays on Youtube as well so that I can learn some tips and tricks from other players!

[Speaker 2] Same here! YouTube is awesome for watching and learning new things. I even learn how to fix equipment that breaks down on the farm by watching YouTube videos on it. I could not live without YouTube!

[Speaker 1] I am always amazed by the types of videos you can find on YouTube...that's so amazing that you can learn how to fix farm equipment!  Do you think our parents would have ever thought all this would be possible/

[Speaker 2] Haha! No chance they could believe the way we do things would be possible! I can't imagine using phones they way they used to be used and tethered to a wall! Now we use our phones as computers! They would be shocked if they were able to time travel from then to now!

[Speaker 2] Oh sure, they let all kinds of animals in there. Do you ever take Emmy out?

[Speaker 1] Emmy is more of a stay at home cat, she's quite old now so she's a bit scared of the outdoors! What kind of comedy do you do? It'll be great to bring Felix along :)

[Speaker 2] I'm more of a crowd work since I got the gig hosting open mics at the Inn. What kind of dog is Felix?

[Speaker 1] Nice one, sounds like you're moving up in the comedy world then? He's a Yorkshire Terrier - He's old as well now, so he's quite docile, and loves just chilling out! Will be nice for him to get out somewhere different and see some new people :)

[Speaker 2] It helps pay the bills, I've been at it for a while. I used to have a little yorkie, loved to chase squirrels.

I have a old Yorkshire terrier dog named Felix and old cat named Emmy.

I am a stay at home mom.

I love to cook and garden.

I reside in a small town.

I love cooking burgers.

I work at a factory.

I like to be funny. I am a comedian. I do open mic events.

I like burgers. I volunteer at a shelter.

I used to have a Yorkshire Terrier.

[Speaker 1] Felix and Emmy got into a fight!

[Speaker 2] Oh, no!  Did anyone get injured?  I hope not.

[Speaker 1] Poor Felix got scratched, Emmy can be vicious sometimes! I was already having such a busy week, of course they had to start fighting on top of that. Did you get up to anything fun last night?

[Speaker 2] I did an open mic night.  The audience really liked my routine.

[Speaker 1] Oh nice. Do you play an instrument or sing?

[Speaker 2] I do stand up comedy.  I don't play any instruments in my routine.  But, I should add them.  What are you planning to have for dinner tonight?

[Speaker 1] Oh totally. Everyone loves Flight of the Concords or Holland and Oates. It makes comedy into a song that just gets stuck into your head. I am thinking of starting to transition into being vegan, so I have been looking up recipes. Have you ever considered that?

[Speaker 2] I have not considered it.  I just love to eat burgers so much.  I don't think I could transition to meatless meals.

[Speaker 1] My friend recommended you can just switch out a lot of meals for vegan, and for example, keep a burger or two a week in there. It made me more open to it, not having to just stop eating meat all at once. But of course, I also have to consider my children. Still, I think it could be a good choice for them too.

[Speaker 2] It is supposed to be very good for the planet.  I should maybe start "Meatless Mondays".

[Speaker 1] Sure, that is an easy way to start. And also, doing drastic changes in your life can be a pretty good inspiration for comedy sets. Do you ever get heckled by the audience?

[Speaker 2] On occasion I do get heckled.  I try to go with the flow and not let it upset me.  I can try to work it into my routine and sometimes it is very funny.

[Speaker 1] Hi. Do you have any kids?

[Speaker 2] Yes and I don't like taking them shopping. Just millions of questions

[Speaker 1] Ha. My little girl is too young to enjoy shopping.

[Speaker 2] I love shopping but hate all of the questions. Can I have this or that?

[Speaker 1] My little girl just said her first word. No annoying questions yet.

[Speaker 2] People getting close and bumping into me but all I can think about it food

[Speaker 1] She loves to listen to my mom play the piano professionally.

[Speaker 2] Just wait, it will happen. Later comes the shopping addiction like I have

[Speaker 1] I love to eat. Not much time for it though. I'm a surgeon.

[Speaker 2] I play piano and several instruments. I'm a cook so always thinking about food

[Speaker 1] Thank goodness my wife hates to shop. She's more at home teaching.

[Speaker 2] Your lucky. Some shopping addictions like mine cost a fortune

[Speaker 1] Can you cook me dinner. My wife is always working, teaching college kids.

[Speaker 2] Oh there you go asking questions just like my kids. Want a pizza with that?

[Speaker 1] Yes please. I am starving after working all day.

[Speaker 2] You should think about food all the time like me. It will make you learn to cook

I have a spouse.
I like going to the ocean.
I like the tone of the sea.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today

[Speaker 2] Hey do you have a favorite color. I am well. Yourself?

[Speaker 1] I am good thanks no I don't

[Speaker 2] Married? Do you have a family?

[Speaker 1] No is your dad alive

[Speaker 2] Yeah he works up north. I go to school. You?

[Speaker 1] My dad died when I was a baby

[Speaker 2] I am sorry to hear that. Do you work? Any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I am very competitive but no work

[Speaker 2] What are you competitive in? Games? Sports?

[Speaker 1] Everything I despise losing yeah

[Speaker 2] I really feel that. I get heated when I lose. I am working on it though

[Speaker 1] Yeah you should help me out

[Speaker 2] How can I help you?

[Speaker 1] Teach me to be humble in defeat

[Speaker 2] I'm a work in progress myself. I do not know. Just ease up.

I do not have a favorite color.

I am not married.

My father died.

I am unemployed.

I play games and sports. I am very competitive. I hate to lose.

I go to school.
I do not like to lose.

[Speaker 1] How is your father doing? Is school going well for you?

[Speaker 2] My father is well, thanks. School is going okay. I have exams coming up so I'm heads down in stufy

[Speaker 1] That's good to hear. Any subject giving you trouble?

[Speaker 2] Yeah it's always History for me. I have trouble memorising dates and facts

[Speaker 1] Yea, too bad they don't allow range of years for answers. Probably why I got fired lol.

[Speaker 2] What job did you get fired from?

[Speaker 1] I worked at a civil war museum. It was an ok job but I don't really miss it.

[Speaker 2] That sounds interesting. What didn't you enjoy about it?

[Speaker 1] People were always asking me about stuff I didn't really know about. What are you thinking of doing once you graduate?

[Speaker 2] I'm thinking of going into tech and becoming a programmer

[Speaker 1] That seems to be a solid choice. Do you live near a big city?

[Speaker 2] Yeah there are decent opportunities to work in tech here. It's not like Silicon Valley but it's pretty good

I do not have a favorite color.

I am not married. My father died.

I got fired. I worked at a civil war museum. I do not miss my job. I got frequently people asking me stuff I didn't know.

I do not like to lose.

My father is well. I go to school. I have exams coming up. I have trouble with History. I have trouble memorising dates and facts.

I think of going into tech and becoming a programmer.

I live near a big city.

[Speaker 1] You won't believe it, but I have just received an email from my previous job

[Speaker 2] Oh? What did they say to you?

[Speaker 1] They want me back! The drug test that they did on me was mixed up with someone else. So, they fired the other person and are begging me to come back. I spoke with someone about it and they think they want me back so they don't get sued.

[Speaker 2] If you did not like the job then I do not feel that it is worth going back. If anything and want to go back then you could leverage the situation for better pay.

[Speaker 1] That is what I was thinking. I'm really not interested in the job and, as you know, I don't really miss it at all. I think the only way I would go back is if they offered me much better pay. Do you think I can get that given the situation?

[Speaker 2] It is worth a shot. If they say no to a better pay then you can easily just reject the job. I feel like it is a pretty easy situation for yourself.

[Speaker 1] I think you are right. I'll have to give it a shot. Have you ever dealt with this kind of situation before?

[Speaker 2] I have been on the edge of being fired due to missing some important dates, but never have actually been fired. Also never has a job contacted me after I left.

[Speaker 1] I see. It certainly is a unique situation I am in. I'll have to keep asking around to see if others have any experience with this kind of situation. I want to make sure that if I go in to a meeting to discuss salary that I am well prepaired.

[Speaker 2] Can maybe also contact a co-worker that is still there and ask how it currently is right now.

[Speaker 1] That's a great idea! I can think of two other people that I used to work with that I can confide in. They might be able to give me some solid advice.

[Speaker 2] Ya, I feel that would be really helpful for you and your decision. Always nice to have some contacts like that.


I do not know if I enjoy programming, or if its my only choice.

My last name is spanish, but I tell people that its italian.

I wish I had been able to meet my father because I am smart like him.

I a fancy.

I'm energized by social situations.

I spent my time reading.

I'm open to anything besides the hillbilly stuff.

I want to be a jetsetter.

[Speaker 1] Hi nice to chat with you

[Speaker 2] Oh hi! Didn't know if you were there so started to read a book!

[Speaker 1] What are you reading, is it a classical

[Speaker 2] No. I was reading a biography about general patton.

[Speaker 1] Interesting, are you interested in the military or just the logic of patton.

[Speaker 2] Both! I love history, so if I can't travel like I'd like I read instead.

[Speaker 1] That is great. I have always wanted to travel to italy to see where my family is from.

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun! My family is scattered all over the world.

[Speaker 1] Then you have many places to visit.

[Speaker 2] Only need the time and money! Until then I chilla on weekend listening to music, hanging out.

[Speaker 1] I listen to classical music.

[Speaker 2] Love classical! Anything other than country I can hang out with.

[Speaker 1] I hang out at the computer lab most days. Boring

[Speaker 2] Do you at least have super fast internet?

I've always wanted to visit Italy. I am Italian.

I listen to classical music.

I hang out at a computer lab and find it boring.

I read books.

My family is from all over the world.

I love classical music. I hate country music.

[Speaker 1] I've just been listening to music at the computer lab. Nothing mch has happened.

[Speaker 2] What do you do at the lab?

[Speaker 1] Mostly try to impress women with my intellect and knowledge of classical music. Never seems to work out though.

[Speaker 2] Hahaha it's a shame you can't get paid to do that!

[Speaker 1] True! I've been thinking of finally visiting my family in Italy.

[Speaker 2] Nice! How long do you think you'll spend there?

[Speaker 1] Probably a few weeks. My cousin runs an olive farm and has offered me a place to stay.

[Speaker 2] That sounds lovely. Where in Italy is that?

[Speaker 1] Down around Toranto, it's located on the heel of the boot.

[Speaker 2] I've never been to Italy but would love to go someday. What's the number one spot you would recommend visiting?

[Speaker 1] I say if you like grandma style Italian food, go somewhere in the south. If you like high end restaurant style go north.

[Speaker 2] Haha this will be a difficult decision because I absolutely like both!

I listen to classical music.

I work at a computer lab and find it boring. I am not paid at the lab.

I have a cousin who runs an olive farm and I am staying with them. I have family in Toranto, Italy

I read books. I love history. I wish I could travel but I don't have the money. I'm interested in both the military and patton.

My family is from all over the world.

I've never been to Italy. I like Italian food.

[Speaker 1] My boss just emailed me to let me know that I can start working a paid position in the computer lab!

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. Wish you good luck with your new position.

[Speaker 1] Thank you! how's your work?

[Speaker 2] It is going good like always. Are you free this weekend?

[Speaker 1] Yes! Want to get together? Do something cool?

[Speaker 2] Sure. It would be fun. Its going to be our treat since you have a good news.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow thanks! What do you want to do?

[Speaker 2] I don't know. anywhere is fine. What about watching a movie?

[Speaker 1] What kind of movies do you like? any war movies playing?

[Speaker 2] I don't know anything about war movies. Its your choice to pick whatever you want. I am okay with anything.

[Speaker 1] So you have never seen Patton? I thought you were a huge fan of him

[Speaker 2] I do. Since its about you I asked you to pick.

[Speaker 1] What have you been watching on Netflix?

[Speaker 2] I am addicted to the blacklist. But i watch a whole lot of tv series and movies. Do you have any event this weekend to perform at?

[Speaker 1] Blacklist, that's the show with James Spader, right? I heard it was pretty good, never watched it myself, though. But, no, I don't have any gig this weekend, thanks to COVID.

[Speaker 2] Yes it is. I love his screen name better.. Raymond Reddington. lol. his tales and stories keeps me glued. Oh sorry about that, COVID messed everyone up. Regardless, doi you guys meet up for rehearsals and just fun playing together, or not due to the restrictions?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, we're on lockdown, so we haven't been able to meet up. Funny, we can't get together, but our Governor can meet with his friends. What's Blacklist about, exactly?

[Speaker 2] The irony of life lol. Its annoying that people cant get to do what they really love and enjoy doing except certain individuals. The Blacklist is an American crime thriller tv series. The show follows Raymond "Red" Reddington, a former U.S. Navy officer turned high-profile criminal who voluntarily surrenders to the FBI after eluding capture for decades. Its a really interesting show and you should see it. looks like we all have time on our hands to stay home.

[Speaker 1] I'm telling you. Tired of the "rules for thee, but not me" attitude of politicians. They go fishing, to thanksgiving dinners, fancy restaurants and get their hair done, and then tell us to lock it down. But, that sounds pretty interesting. I do have time on my hands to get into it.

[Speaker 2] I know right? I cannot wait for this vaccine to be rolled out lets get our lives back. Have you been writing any new songs? What is usually your inspiration for your kind of music?

I like piano. I play in a band. I write music with my best friend who is in a band with me. I have taken formal music lessons since I was 5.

I have a Netflix account.

I have blonde hair. Mother lifted weights.

I have a Netflix account. I like Netflix.

I am annoyed with COVID. I like the show Blacklist. I am going to get the vaccine when it comes out.

[Speaker 1] Because of all of this at home time I have finished the series! How do you like it?

[Speaker 2] I love the show Blacklist it was so good, The mystery, the action. It kept me engaged the whole time. I'd re-watch it again. What about you?

[Speaker 1] Blacklist is such a good show! its addicting isnt? I binge watched it as well. I really want to find another series, Do you have another series in mind? I watched Bridgerton, took a bit to get into it but was good overall. Have you watched The Queens Gambit?

[Speaker 2] The queens gambit was a great series. Did you hear it actually caused an increase in chess sales! Crazy! Bridgerton was a great show too. I'd recommend watching Into the badlands, it has a good kung-fu style to it.

[Speaker 1] LOVED the queens gambit, I wished I was resilient and smart enough to play chess. Oh I bet, I actually bought a set to learn how to play, LOL!!! I know, I know!!! Oh  I love Badlands, I am so sad that they cancel the show though! Have you watched The last Air-bender?

[Speaker 2] I have, back when I was much younger. I saw it come up on Netflix but havent gotten a chance to re-watch it. Do you think I should?!

[Speaker 1] I think you should, I started to watch, The legend of Korra, which is a follow up show after the last airbenders death, 70 years later. The only show I can recommend to be watched over and over again is the The Office, have you watched?

[Speaker 2] I've tried to but sometimes awkward comedy is unsettling. Everyone I know recommends it though. I may have to give it another shot this weekend

[Speaker 1] Yes, its really crude and dry in humor. I dont know why, But I really enjoy it. the first season is a bit hard to get through. Sort of like Game of thrones, took a bit to actually understand the hype of it, I ended up liking it. Have you watched?

[Speaker 2] I loved game of thrones, but the last season was just a pure disappointment. I would be okay with a remake of the last season. It had so much potential! Don't you think?

[Speaker 1] The last season killed me. Jon Snow was too dramatic and harsh when he decided to kill Danny. I dont understand the logic behind it. I do have to say Aria gave me a heart attack when she took out the Night king, I forget his name. when the shocked left me, I was shocked once again that the night king was taken out SO QUICKLY AND SO EASY. i wanted the night king and jon snow to fight it out.. but nope.

[Speaker 2] I will hold onto hope that they'll come back and fix their mistake somehow. They have to give us the ending we deserve!

[Speaker 1] I am doing alright. Spent the day surfing. You?

[Speaker 2] I worked on photographs all day

[Speaker 1] Nice, are you a photographer?

[Speaker 2] I have certainly spent enough money to call myself that. Its a hobby!

[Speaker 1] That would be a fun hobby. I spend my time listening to country music.

[Speaker 2] The only sound I need is the sound of rain!

[Speaker 1] Haha, I like the rain. But it makes it hard to go surfing.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, on rainy days I stay inside and light a few candles, so relaxing!

[Speaker 1] And a nice hot bath and a good book. That would be very relaxing.

[Speaker 2] After a night like that I could sleep until noon!

I like to surf.
I like Country music.
I like rain.
I like to read and bathe.

I like photography.
I like the sound of rain.
I like to sleep.

[Speaker 1] Have you taken any new pictures?

[Speaker 2] I managed to get out at the weekend and get loads of shots in the snow we had, I really want to upload them and start editing!

[Speaker 1] Oh wow you had snow!? We just had rain all weekend :) I managed to get some time to myself to have a bath and listen to the rain on the window! Did you have a nice chilled weekend? It's nice to catch up on sleep after a busy week!

[Speaker 2] Your weekend still sounds pretty nice! I find photographing quite relaxing so it felt like a chilled weekend, even though I was out early. Fresh snow is the best, harder to get crisp shots when it's been disturbed by other people.

[Speaker 1] Yeah it was lush thanks :) I did manage to get out for a few hours surfing as well - the rainy weather makes the waves bigger! What is your favourite subject to photograph?

[Speaker 2] Hmm, tough question, but I would say currently it's portraits, I'm really getting into them and feel like my shots are getting better and better. I'm always looking for new subjects too!

[Speaker 1] Sounds really interesting - I'd love to pose for you if you ever need someone to photograph? Do you like taking pictures of animals as well?

[Speaker 2] Yea, we could even do some in the rain, that's a skill i've yet to master, if you would be up for some trial and error.

[Speaker 1] Oooh sounds amazing, I'm up for that! I've always wanted to get into photography, and it sounds like you'd be a good teacher :)

[Speaker 2] I do like taking photos of animals too, but they're not as good at taking direction. Goes with the saying don't work with animals or children LOL.

[Speaker 1] haha yeah, weirdly i'm good with both animals and children, but not other people! That's why I like surfing, get to spend a bit of time by myself :)

[Speaker 2] I guess we are all different. Animals and children are fine, as long as I don't expect them to listen to me, stick to small doses.

I like Country music. I like to read and bathe.

I like rain. I live in an area that rains. I live near the beach. I like to surf.

I am fine being in a photograph. I am curious about photography.

I can bond with animals and children. I also like some time for myself.

I am a photographer. I like photography. I live in an area that snows. I have editing software.

I wake up early for photographs. I live in an area with people.

I currently like taking pictures of portraits. I am looking for new subjects to photograph. I take photographs of animals and children.

[Speaker 1] How were the pictures you took when it was snowing?

[Speaker 2] They were absolutely stunning. The morning sun made for a gorgeous snowy sunrise. Do you ever plan on coming to New York? I can definitely photograph your portrait!

[Speaker 1] I have always wanted to visit New York but this year we're planning a trip to Texas to visit the country music hall of fame. Did you use any editing software with your pictures? I've always wanted to try it.

[Speaker 2] Wow! I am originally from Texas but moved to New York to pursue my photography career. I haven't been able to use my editing software yet because my cat chewed my charger!

[Speaker 1] I didn't know you were from Texas. It seems like New York would be a big change, do you miss it? Any must sees while we are there?

[Speaker 2] It was definitely a big move. I miss the weather and the food. I haven't found good BBQ like back home. You just gotta keep an eye out for everything being oversized! Texans do it big haha. Where are you from?

[Speaker 1] I'm from Florida originally but we moved to Washington about five years ago. Best decision ever - we get so much rain here and a day trip to the beach is never to far way.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, whereabouts in Florida? I love going to Aventura at least once or twice a year. I have never been to Washington. I could imagine my hair not agreeing with all that rain!

[Speaker 1] We were outside of Miami so we were able to head over to Aventura a couple times a year. You would miss the snow for sure if you moved here but I bet you could capture some amazing rain photographs. Wait, is that a thing?

[Speaker 2] Yes it is definitely a thing! You would be surprised with how the lightning and clouds can make for such gorgeous backgrounds. I can always edit in some extra lightning strikes! But maybe I can come visit.

[Speaker 1] That would be cool! I could take you to a beach that always seems to have storms if you want to get the ocean in there too.

[Speaker 2] The reflection off the water would be amazing, I will definitely be taking you up on that soon! I recently got divorced so I am in need of a new social circle since she got all my friends!

[Speaker 1] I've a sports related story. I met peyton manning at kroger once.

[Speaker 2] That's so cool! I wonder if they eat a balanced diet and avoid sugar too ;

[Speaker 1] Being an athlete, I'm sure he watches what he eats.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I agree with that. So tell me, what do you look like?

[Speaker 1] Brown hair, thick glasses, kind of overweight. I read a lot.

[Speaker 2] I've brown hair too. Makes me look extra pasty white. I like to read too

[Speaker 1] I prefer reading encyclopedias. I love encyclopedias. Do you own a set?

[Speaker 2] I don't but I should own one

I like rock collecting. I like making art.

I work at the gas station.

I have met peyton manning.

I have brown hair, thick glasses. I am a bit overweight. I read a lot. I like reading encyclopedias.

I rollerblade.

I like hockey.

I avoid the gas station. I avoid eating sugar.

I have brown hair. I like to read.

I don't have any encyclopedias.

[Speaker 1] I just found out there is an outdoor hockey group near me. Any tips for playing?

[Speaker 2] Oh cool! I guess my main tip is learn how to fall so that you don't do yourself an injury but the team will help you out for sure! It's really good for the core strength and keeping fit.

[Speaker 1] My goal is to lose some weight since I am about 10 pounds over my ideal weight.

[Speaker 2] That's not far off! You'll get there in no time. I've found since cutting out sugar that a lot of my stomach weight was easier to lose by keeping active - I recommend it for sure. Have you made any art recently?

[Speaker 1] Sugar is so hard to cut out! You are inspiring me to try that. It might make the difference of these last 10 pounds. I painted a picture of rollerblades this weekend. I will email you a picture of it.

[Speaker 2] You can do it! Think about your Peyton and his determination as inspiration too! That'd be really cool to see, it sounds like you're excited about starting!

[Speaker 1] Peyton must have such a dedication to healthy eating to be in the shape he is!

[Speaker 2] If I was paid millions each year, I would be too! Guess I'll have to do it for my own good instead, eh! You ever watched a roller or an ice hockey match?

[Speaker 1] I have not, but they sound exciting. If you ever compete I will come watch you play!

[Speaker 2] That sounds great, I will get you tickets! Some of the hits can be brutal, so I recommend investing in some good safety gear. I have a bruise that looks like the state of Texas on my leg right now from getting in the way of the ball.

[Speaker 1] Wow! That sounds painful. How long do you think it will be before it heals?

[Speaker 2] Probably two weeks. It goes through a lot of colours for sure! Had an almost brown bruise a few months back, almost the colour of my hair - slightly darker than yours even!

I like rock collecting, making art, reading encyclopedias.

I work at the gas station.

I have met Peyton Manning.

I am interested in outdoor hockey. I own rollerblades. I have never watched hockey.

I rollerblade. I like hockey.

I have brown hair. I like to read. I don't have any encyclopedias.

I have fallen while playing hockey. I have a large bruise on my right leg 3 months ago that was brown. I have good core strength.

I have successfully lost weight.

I do not have millions of dollars.

[Speaker 1] Will you be able to come watch me play

[Speaker 2] Watch you play? What game are you playing?

[Speaker 1] I will be playing an outdoor hockey game on rollerblades.  I hope you will be able to come.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a bunch of fun! I would love to come what you play. When is the game?

[Speaker 1] The game is tonight.  Hopefully you can bring your rollerblades and we can skate afterwards.  I would love to hear more about your weight loss.

[Speaker 2] Alright. I'll plan to come. I have a bunch of errands to run today so I'm not sure if I can get home in time to get my rollerblades. But, I will certainly try.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great.  Can you tell me more about your weight loss?

[Speaker 2] Of course! We can go over it all after the game. I've spent a bunch of time working on the correct dieting for me as well as finding a workout routine that helps me loss weight. Perhaps it could help you as well. By the way, what time should I be there tonight?

[Speaker 1] I would love to lose more weight and get some more active hobbies.  The game starts at 5.

[Speaker 2] Alright. I'll even bring some reading materials for you to check out, if I can get home in time to grab my rollerblades. I look forward to the game. I'll talk to you later, I need to get my errands done as soon as possible!

[Speaker 1] What errands do you have to run today?  Hopefully you do not have to go to the gas station.

[Speaker 2] I don't need to go to the gas station. I need to return a book to the library, I need to go grocery shopping, I need to pick up flowers at the shop, and I need to buy a new water filter for my house.

[Speaker 2] I have been wanting to become more active. I used to go for runs, but with the kids I get so busy driving them to practice all the time!

[Speaker 1] Having a family can definitely consume the time. Hey, maybe we can together with the kids. I am sure it would be a lot of fun for everyone.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great idea! Maybe you can play soccer with them, while I go for a run around the field. Did you get up to anything fun last night?

[Speaker 1] That sounds very wonderful! I did not do a whole lot besides helping my mother at the library last night.

[Speaker 2] That is so very nice of you. My children helped me out with making dinner last night, which I really appreciated. I have started transitioning us into a vegan diet lately, so it is good to get them involved in the cooking and prep.

[Speaker 1] They sound like great kids. I am unsure about the vegan diet, as long as it is something that they want to do.

[Speaker 2] It was their request! I was pretty surprised by it. I guess my eldest watched a documentary and the younger kids followed. It has been a little challenging to start coming up with new meals, but once I get my garden started I am sure that will help.

This is my first year at new york university.

I'm the tiny one.

My dad works in a class.

I have alot of loved ones.

I am the first born son of many brothers and sisters.

[Speaker 1] Good morning! Its a beautiful day for taking pictures!

[Speaker 2] Family pictures! Family is everything to me! How big is yours?

[Speaker 1] About average. I am the little brother with two older ones and mom and dad!

[Speaker 2] I am the oldest of 4 siblings, but the shortest. Only 5 3.

[Speaker 1] There's a girl in some of my freshman nyu classes who is shorter!

[Speaker 2] My father teaches middle school, and is only 5 4. His students are taller

[Speaker 1] That can be rough. Tell him to wear blue its a power color!

[Speaker 2] Will do! Whats your major

[Speaker 1] Criminology. What can I say I wear blue and bleed it to!

[Speaker 2] Youre crazy. I'd be having nightmares. I cannot watch crime tv show even

[Speaker 1] I probably am. I hope to get into crime scene photography. Combine my passions!

[Speaker 2] Well, someone has to do it. Better u than me!

I take pictures.

I am the youngest in my family. I have two older brothers.

I like taking family pictures.

I am the shortest and the oldest sibling in my family. I have a height of 5' 3". I have three other siblings.

My father teaches middle school. He is only 5' 4".

[Speaker 1] Did the advice work for your father to wear blue? How are your brothers doing?

[Speaker 2] It did work! He wore his blue shirt on his date, and it went really well!! Brothers are doing good as well - they're pretty swamped in college work! How are your classes going?

[Speaker 1] They're good, thanks for asking. It's just getting really intense now, since the Christmas break. Seems to always been something that I should have already done!

[Speaker 2] That's always the way it goes! Has the course covered everything that you thought you'd need for your future career? It would scare me going to crime scenes to take photos, i prefer nice calm family photos LOL!

[Speaker 1] I think so and my lecturers are super, most have on the job experience too, so that's made it easier for me to trust the process. We all need balance, I will still be taking family photos too i hope, at the weekends.

[Speaker 2] That's great to hear! It always helps to have confidence in your lecturers. That's cool, but wouldn't it take a bit of the fun away from it if it was your day job as well?

[Speaker 1] I guess, but I can't hang crime scene photos to my friends or have them hanging on my walls LOL

[Speaker 2] Haha good point! Does it not upset you seeing the crime scenes? I find it really sad knowing that people might have died in a place where I am.

[Speaker 1] It can be upsetting but I think I've learnt to detach myself from those sort of jobs now, which took time. I always remind myself that ultimately I'm helping in some way to solve the crimes.

[Speaker 2] That's a really good attitude to have - I'm not sure I'd be able to do what you do! Did you manage to get out this weekend to take any photos of non crime related stuff?

[Speaker 1] Web had a little snow, I managed to get out really early one day to capture some shots whilst it was fresh and undisturbed. Did you take any recently?

[Speaker 2] That's cool, we just had rain all weekend! I managed to get out for a couple of hours on Sunday, I took some nice pictures in the local park - lot's of people going about their business, and a few wild animals!

I take pictures.

I am the youngest in my family. I have 2 older brothers.

I am a freshman at NYU studying criminology. I want to go into law enforcement. I want to get into crime scene photography to combine two passions. I am going to take photos of crime scenes. I take family photos on the weekends.

I am detached from my job.

I like taking family pictures. I am the shortest and the oldest sibling in my family. I have a height of 5' 3". I have 3 other siblings.

I am afraid of crime related jobs and crime tv shows. I could not take photos of crime scenes.

My father is dating. My brothers are in college.

[Speaker 1] I finished my last college class we need to celebrate!

[Speaker 2] That is amazing to hear! Do you have any job leads or are you going to take some time off to relax after graduating?

[Speaker 1] I am going to take a bit of time off, before I work hard on getting a job. I feel like I deserve a bit of time off.

[Speaker 2] For sure, I feel you! I have really gotten into baking recently, so maybe I can bake you a graduation cake. It has actually become a good source of side income, I recently made a cake for a wedding. It was a huge cake, almost as tall as me LOL

[Speaker 1] Oh nice! I would definitely would love to have one of your cakes, thank you!. That cake sounds amazing, but that must have taken so long to make.

[Speaker 2] It wasn't that bad, but it did take me about a day with all the baking and decorating. But it felt really nice when they said they were so happy with it. It is just a little weird since I am lactose intolerant, so I there are many parts I can't really taste. Thankfully I have my brothers as the professional tasters! Do you like cooking / baking?

[Speaker 1] Oh, that sounds good. You do make delicious cakes so I am not surprised that they were happy with it. Since I am busy with school and all I have not much time to cook or bake. So I just have instant meals usually.

[Speaker 2] Maybe you can take it up now that you are graduating! It can be honestly so gratifying, a great stress reliever. Ever since I started cooking for myself, I find I save a lot of money and also feel better. I have been trying really hard with all my side businesses to generate some extra income, as I am looking to put a deposit on a condo soon.

[Speaker 1] Ya, I will definitely cook more once I am settled. I am taking a bit step in my life so I have to make sure everything is good. Good luck to you with all of your ventures. Hopefully it works out for you in the end.

[Speaker 2] Me too. I am really hoping to get more independent and move away from my dad's house. But real estate prices are so crazy here, so maybe for now it is just a dream! Do you ever think about buying property?

[Speaker 1] After everything is settled, ya. New York is pretty pricey as well, and I can only rent for now.

[Speaker 2] They've called him a couple times. He's says he's feeling better, I'm not convinced he isn't just milking it for the attention. But the flu can be rough and he ain't getting any younger.

[Speaker 1] No way. Would he go that far with getting attention? I am preparing for my students' final exam this week.

[Speaker 2] He's a big baby sometimes, but he works so hard, I don't blame him for taking some time off. 576893

[Speaker 1] Lol!! Then maybe it is a well deserved break. My daughters want to start baking lessons. I am not sure they know what they are asking for!

[Speaker 2] Sorry about the numbers, my cat jumped on the numpad of the kb. I bet the kids are ready for the year end. What do you think you'll teach your girls to bake first?

[Speaker 1] I wont start with cakes for sure. They can never have enough of them!! I am thinking a pie recipe from my grand mum's.

[Speaker 2] Well you know what they say, feed them a cake and etc, but teach them and maybe they'll be baking for you =]

[Speaker 1] My worry is the mess that comes with the whole baking thing. They are yet to learn how to clean as they go.

[Speaker 2] Yea, that's one of the things that puts me off baking, all the clean up. Perhaps that should be the first lesson.

I live in Illinois. I am an English teacher. I like my job.

My husband passed away. I have two daughters. My daughters are starting baking lessons. My grand mum has a pie recipe.

I live in Pittsburgh.

I am a banker.

I graduated from Pitt in 2014.

I have 3 adult daughters. My husband is ill with the flu.

I have a cat.

[Speaker 1] How are your daughters and husband?

[Speaker 2] My daughters are doing good. They are all working hard and enjoying their work. My husband is sick with the flu and I am worried about him. He hasn't gotten better as of recent. How are your daughters?

[Speaker 1] They are doing well.  They tried baking several pies last night but it didn't turn out like grand mum's!

[Speaker 2] I have to try your grand mum's pie at some point! Maybe I should come over to try a piece of pie from your daughters. What types did they make?

[Speaker 1] You don't want to try theirs!  They did not turn out good, which is why they need baking lessons!  How is the banking industry going?

[Speaker 2] Banking is booming as always. The job is a bit stale but I enjoy working with all the different people. In fact, I saw one of your daughters at the bank yesterday!

[Speaker 1] Oh, yes!  She was cashing in her change collection.  She had $387.14!

[Speaker 2] That is a bunch of change! I heard the change machine going as she was talking with one of the other tellers. I hope she spends that change on something great for you!

[Speaker 1] That would be so nice.  She is buying baking supplies - fancy plates and expensive vanilla.  I hope she will save the rest.

[Speaker 2] I guess you need some baking supplies if you are going to be doing baking lessons. Hopefully it pays off! As for the rest, I agree that she should probably save it up. I'm sure you would like to see your daughters out of the house and independently financially stable at some point.

[Speaker 1] I look forward to them being financially stable, but I would miss them!  Since my husband died, it would be just me.  I worry I would get lonely.

[Speaker 2] Oh my! That reminds me that I need to tend to my husbands sickness. I really don't want to be lonely. Its something that actually frightens me.

[Speaker 1] Hi. How are you doing? I'm married with kids. You?

[Speaker 2] I drive a blue van

[Speaker 1] Lol. What do you do in your blue van? Been to any wine tours recently?

[Speaker 2] I can not really say

[Speaker 1] It is ok, I will not tell. You can trust me. Really.

[Speaker 2] Oh no, its too bad. I have tattoos

[Speaker 1] Yes, tattoos are bad. Definitely bad. I'll warn my two sons about you.

[Speaker 2] Oh good. Wait, I'm not bad

[Speaker 1] Really? Ok. Sometimes bad is good, right? Do you at least drink wine?

[Speaker 2] No no, I cannot drink

[Speaker 1] Oh, ok. So what do you do for fun, when not driving the blue van?

[Speaker 2] I recycle alot of things

[Speaker 1] That is good. Now I see you not bad. Lol. Do you find recycling fun?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, great fun! I recycle cats

[Speaker 1] How do you recycle a cat??? Both my sons love cats by the way.

[Speaker 2] I love to rub against them

Going to the ocean is one of my greatest pleasures.

[Speaker 2] I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with her. I enjoy reading

[Speaker 1] That is okay. Reading is nice too. What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 2] I am a teacher. I am quite passionate about it. What about you?

[Speaker 1] I'm a freelancer. Last week I cleaned gutters for money.

[Speaker 2] Do you enjoy doing that type of work?

[Speaker 1] No but it allows me to do the things I do enjoy, like archery.

[Speaker 2] I understand. Where do you go to enjoy archery?

[Speaker 1] The woods and there is an archery center near my house.

[Speaker 2] That's great. Do you live alone or are you happily married?

[Speaker 1] I am happily engaged. How do you get around? I drive a motorcycle.

[Speaker 2] I want to buy a new car but my husband is being a stiff.

[Speaker 1] You should get a bike too. But do not get a harley.

[Speaker 2] Why not a harley? What about an indian bike?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure what you mean by indian bike.

[Speaker 2] Indian motorcycles? You should look them up they are better harleys

Jess Greenberg is my favorite singer.

I do freelance work like cleaning gutters.

I enjoy archery. I live near an archery center, and I practice there and in the woods.

I am engaged. I drive a motorcycle. I do not like Harley motorcycles.

I like to read.

I am a teacher, and I'm very passionate about my job.

I am married. I want to buy a new car, but my husband doesn't agree with me about it.

[Speaker 1] Have you and your husband talked any more about buying a new car and come to an agreement about it?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, we talked a lot about it. He said that if I sold my current car then he would agree. I suppose he's right, I don't really need two cars

[Speaker 1] I don't see what the problem is, it's your money! Maybe you can buy a motorcycle instead and we can go on long rides together! Are you having a nice weekend? I bet it's been stressful in school around exam time!

[Speaker 2] Exactly, but he said it's money we could save together for a rainy day. As for motorbikes, I'm more of a passenger. Perhaps I should buy one for him instead! The kids in the school have been working hard for their exams so it's been relatively quiet for now. Next week is when I need to start grading the exams though so it will be a lot of work

[Speaker 1] Ah that's fair enough I suppose, always worth having some money away for an emergency! Well you're always welcome to come with me on my bike if you prefer to be a passenger! That's good, are you confident that they'll all pass their exams?

[Speaker 2] That sounds like it could be a lot of fun actually. What kinds of places do you like to go on your bike? Yeah, I think the kids will be okay in their exams. I practically spoon fed them the material!

[Speaker 1] I love going riding through the countryside, it's so peaceful, not many cars on the road, and occasionally get to see some cool wildlife :) I tried riding a Harley Davidson recently, but hated it! Much prefer to stick to my racing bikes!

[Speaker 2] That sounds very relaxing actually! Do you often ride with your partner or usually just alone?

[Speaker 1] I usually ride alone, it's my thing :) She doesn't like motorbikes, she thinks they're too dangerous! Once we're married with kids I think i'll eventually get rid of the bike! Do you have children of your own?

[Speaker 2] I have two kids, a girl aged 4 and a boy, 7. Trust me in saying that once you have kids, you'll enjoy getting away from it and going for a peaceful ride alot more!

[Speaker 1] Haha I know i will, but it's just the danger side of things really! I'll have to get more into my archery :) It's really conveniently close to my house, I can just nip out for a few hours and fire some arrows!

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a safer bet, I suppose that's something you could encourage your future kids to join you in doing.

[Speaker 1] Ooooh how exciting! I don't know much about them but I know they're very new and very fancy. And expensive!

[Speaker 2] Yes! My teacher paycheck wouldn't pay for that if it wasn't for my husbands job! How about you, did you do any gigs the past few days?

[Speaker 1] Not in the last week or so, no. It's been quite nice to have a break actually. Maybe that's why I'm ready to do something. How's the husband?

[Speaker 2] He's doing good! He turned our basement into a meth lab because business is going good and he needed space...he is also hiring if you're interested? It's good money!

[Speaker 1] Wow! That's quite the offer! I think I'll pass. You guys be careful!

[Speaker 2] Thanks! You can get away with a lot when you've money! Can we pay for your wedding...if you're planning on having one?

[Speaker 1] Well how can I say no to that?! We'd been saving really hard but barely made a dent... I'd appreciate it like you have no idea!

[Speaker 2] Ok perfect! How much are you thinking?

[Speaker 1] Well... we were going to have a pretty big wedding, but if youre paying for it I feel bad... what do you have in mind?

[Speaker 2] I know, I know! The kids love it though. They wo not stand for honey!

[Speaker 1] My kids are all at college now. I have taken up teaching yogo to fill the empty nest.

[Speaker 2] Good for you. I have a long way to go... And many more miles in my trucking job

[Speaker 1] Trucking oh my! Greasy diners. Cramped up. For me its yoga poetry

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I try to stretch the legs some with recreational baseball. Helps pass time.

[Speaker 1] Different strokes, huh? We would make quite the comedic pair in a romantic movie!
