Did you see that really cute guy

in the third row?

- Okay.

- Hubba, hubba.

- He's coming this way. Coming.

- Hello, ladies.

Thanks so much for coming to my talk.

You got my DVD.

Yes.

There's actually some great advice

in there, Doris.

- Yes, yes.

- Great name.

- My mother named me after Doris Day.

- Doris Day is my all-time favorite.

You know what her real last name was?

Von Kappelhoff.

- It's funny, huh?

- Very, very funny.

- Excuse me, I just... I have to....

- Certainly.

Mr. Williams, may I ask a question?

Ask me anything.

Mr. Williams,

there's something I want.

Is this something a someone?

Yes.

And he....

He's very different than me.

It just seems impossible.

- Impossible, a confounding word.

- And yet I use it all the time.

- There's no such thing as impossible.

- No?

- Think about the word itself.

- Okay.

I'm possible.

- I'm possible.

- I'm possible.

We're just looking at things

the wrong way.

Like this glass of water,

is it half full or is it half empty?

- I don't know.

- It's all about the way we look at things.

- Do you see?

- I see.

- Yes, you do see.

- Yes, I do see.

Well, I'm glad to see you, Doris.

You are perfect inside and out.

You're a green ball of glowing light.

And don't let anyone

tell you otherwise.

Oh, I recognize you.

I'm possible.

I'm possible.

I'm possible.

I guess what I'm thinking is that

whether it's digital or analogue...

- ...the brand has to be unified.

- I agree. Yeah.

Change up the typeface....

- What is this one?

- See, I like this one a lot too. This is...

John?

John, over here, John.

Hello.

Heh, this is...

John, I....

- Just... Hello.

- I'm gonna... Just hold on. Real quick.

Hi, is everything okay?

So I'm... John, this is the situation.

It seems that I have a defective ball.

Yes, I'm...

...practically empty here.

- Oh, look at that.

- And the other day I saw you...

...so I put it together in my head

because you came in with a bike pump...

...and so I thought, "There you go."

- Let me grab my pump. Be right back.

- Okay. Okay.

BRB.

Lucky bike pump.

- Okay. Let me take a look.

- Okay.

Okay.

- If I could just... Sorry.

- Yeah.

Do you wanna get off the ball

while I do this?

- Do I have to? I have bad knees.

- Oh.

- Uh, oh, okay.

- Okay.

All right.

There we go.

Um.... Um....

How are you liking the new job?

- The new j... Pretty good so far, I guess.

- Is it? Is it?

- Feel like I'm managing okay.

- Yeah.

Okay.

- All right.

- Okay.

Sorry.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- How's that?

- Oh, good.

Yeah? It's not too hard?

- No, oh, no.

- Okay.

- I'm gonna pull it out, okay?

- Okay, okay, okay.

- Let me get that back in. All right.
