Get us out of that business.

Linda, that is what I am trying to do.

This is what I'm trying to do

for my family...

...for you and for Christopher.

What's the matter with you?

Linda.

Linda.

This part of my life

is called "Being Stupid. "

Can I ask you a favor, miss?

Do you mind if I leave this here

with you just for five minutes?

I have a meeting in there

and I don't wanna carry that...

...Iooking smalltime.

Here is a dollar and I'll give you

more money when I come back out.

Okay? It's not valuable.

You can't sell it anywhere.

I can't even sell it, and it's my job.

All right?

-Chris? Tim Brophy, Resources.

-Yes. How are you?

-Come with me.

-Yes, sir.

Let me see if I can find you

an application for our internship.

I'm afraid that's all we can do for you.

See, this is a satellite office.

Jay Twistle in the main office,

he oversees Witter Resources.

I mean, I'm-- You know,

I'm just this office.

As you can see, we got a hell of lot

of applications here, so....

Normally I have a resume sheet,

but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

-We....

-Thank you very much.

I need to go.

I'll bring this back.

-Thank you.

-Okay.

Trusting a hippie girl with my scanner.

Why did I do that?

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Like I said, this part of my life

is called "Being Stupid. "

Hey!. Hey!. Hey!. Don't move!.

Don't move!. Stay--!.

Stop!. Stop!.

Don't move!.

Stop this--!. Stop the train!

Stop! Stop!

The program took just 20 people

every six months.

One got the job.

There were three blank lines after

"high school" to list more education.

I didn't need that many lines.

T ry and sleep. It's late.

It's a puzzle measuring just 3 inches

by 3 inches on each side...

...made up of multiple colors

that you twist and turn...

...and try to get

to a solid color on each side.

This little cube

is the gift sensation of 1 98 1.

Don't expect to solve it easily.

Although we did encounter

one math professor at USF...

... who took just 30 minutes on his.

This is as far as I've gotten

on mine.

As you can see,

I still have a long way to go.

This is Jim Finnerty reporting

for KJSF in Richmond.

Hey, wake up.

Eat.

-Bye, Mom.

-Bye, baby.

-Come back without that, please.

-Oh, yeah, I'm going to.

So go ahead, say goodbye to it,

because I'm coming back without it.

Goodbye and good riddance.

You ain't had to add

the "good riddance" part.

Bye, Mom.

Bye.

It's written as P-P-Y, but it's

supposed to be an I in "happiness."

-ls it an adjective?

-No, actually it's a noun.

But it's not spelled right.

-ls "f***" spelled right?

-Yeah, that's spelled right.

But that's not part of the motto,

so you're not supposed to learn that.
