I work in my family's seafood restaurant, and it's in Port Glade. Okay? Thank you. Yeah. Now, first, you have to break off the tail, okay? You can do that. Just try to break it right off. Just haul it right off. I have a really big family. There's eight, including me. We're a real close family because we all have to work together in the restaurant. because things are so high. Port Clyde is a small town, and everybody knows everybody.
Must be all all right? Yep, it's all. You ready? Thank you. Have a good day. Yep. Bye-bye. Bye. Hi, Laura. Hi. I waited on you today. Now you can wait on me. Okay.

How much money you got saved? I don't know. I don't know. My mother's got my bank.
I'll be good talking. Oh, wow. Where's Sally? Sally's gone sailing with a working old boy tonight. A lot of people that come to the counter are the people that I know. I've been working at the Driftwood for about five years. The first four, I used to do dishes. I have a lot more responsibility now. How many slices of toast? Two. Two. Okay. It's hard when I'm working in the restaurant to get a moment of peace by myself. If I really need it, I'll just say I want to go for a walk and I'll walk down to the public land. It's nice to get off by myself and get all rested up. Sometimes I just sort of drift off and think what it's going to be like when I grow up. I think that it's going to be hard when I grow up because stuff is going to be so much. It's going to cost, like, for heat and gas and for electricity.
I think my sister Melissa wants to just get married and have kids and be a housewife. I want to travel around the world just to see what there is. I want to live in a little old cabin in the woods all by myself Because I want to just be quiet where I live, peaceful. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear Francis. Happy birthday to you. You cut it. No, I cut one birthday cake a year, and that's mine. You cut your own. Judy, I'll make a minute. Who's going to cut it? I will. i want the biggest how come lauren wants with the most frosty right i want you to have a call i want the collar okay no i want this hungry man that's mine my parents work awfully hard just for us kids really i like working in the restaurant because
i think i'm helping them a lot here is some of the milk at the end of the day we just have a good feeling inside how about that we all know that we've worked together and we've made it through that day. Who is tired besides me? Me. Who around here believes in ESP? Me. Me. Me. I do. I do. Five against one? No, really. I think I have it because one time when we come up with Zoom, I knew what we were going to do. Really. I knew just like what we were going to say and do. It's because they told you yesterday. No, I couldn't really come up to do a certain thing. Do you guys believe in magic? Yes, I do. That's the only thing I believe in. I don't believe in magic. It's so weird.
I don't understand it. I don't believe in magic, and I don't believe in superstitions, but I believe there is spirits, mental telepathy, and... My mother believes. She's superstitious, very. My sister is, too. No, I don't believe that ghosts come back, but i believe that there were signs like um if a like if a lady dies and her favorite flower was like a rose and it was really in winter time and you saw a rose lying around that's like a sign i'd believe that yeah but i wouldn't be the ghost comes to haunt you no i wouldn't run can i see in my house in my house there's like um there's a big staircase up to my attic and like my door's there and then the bathroom's there and the stairway goes up like that up to the attic door that's the way mine goes and right you open the door and there's this big window oh and it's like see when i went up to go to the bathroom i go out and like see that there's the one of the windows have opened a little bit up there yeah and there's a and also the door there's you go up to the door there's a door there to go another part of the attic and that was open a little too i think
and so you go up and it looks like there was a hand up against the window like that Everyone, everyone in my house gets the same dream, that there are little men walking around with knives and axes, and they're, honest to God, and they're teeny people, and they walk around, and they come up, and they go all around your body, and they're about to kill you. Are they, um, new guys dressed in Japanese costumes? You know the small radios that go, the white, they go around the wall like that? Yeah. Well, you know, all of a sudden, they're heating up or cooling up, they'll go click, click, click, click, click. That's just like in my room. And it scares the heck out of me. One night, my mother's friend was sleeping. She was in the bathroom, right? And I was coming out in the morning because she was in the door. Don't worry, you'll find out. I was coming out of the room, and I was going, I was dead asleep, and this was a day to go to Zoom. And I'm just zonked out because I really didn't go to bed until really late, and I come in.
And I thought the door was closed, and I forgot she gets up really early to go to work. And so I go, and I flip the switch, and it was on, but it was on. I turned it off, and then I open up the door, and she goes, yuck! It shuts the door, and I go, ah! And I scream, I had to run into the room. And I said, whatever, whatever, whatever. She locks the door, and I say, oh, yeah, I think it's your friend. She goes, oh, we all had a heart attack that day. And my brother Scott, you know, he was awake real early, and he goes like this, and he was laughing. And we just died laughing the rest of the day thinking about that. Hiya, out there. For my trick today, we have two matchboxes. The first matchbox is empty and is gold on the back. The second matchbox is empty
and is gold on the back. We take these two matchboxes and we place them together and presto, chango, wango, shazooom! They're black. Black. Boy, hungry, starving. It's kind of dirty. Just have to do. Waitress. Good evening. What would you like? I'd like a bowl of soup. Do you have any minestrone? The best. And some coffee. Coming right up, ma'am. Enjoy it. Oh, yuck! What is it? There is a spider in my soup. So what?
Don't just stand. Get rid of it. Get rid of it. Okay. Anything the customer wants. Is that all you're going to do? That was a spider in my soup. A nice big one. What an awful dirty restaurant. I wish I weren't so hungry. Witches! What is it now? This is horrible. Take it away. Some dessert, ma'am? Yeah, I'll have a hot apple turnover. I think I'll try them. I'm still hungry. Hope you like that. Yuck! Oh, oh, yuck! What is it? What is it? There are fly eggs in my turnover. I demand to see the chef. Hey, your boss, there's a lady out here who wants to see you. Yes, ma'am. May I help you? This food is disgusting. I will never come here again. You won't?
Well, why did you come here in the first place? Because I'm hungry and it's the only restaurant open in the middle of the night. What did you expect? Yes, what did you expect? This is the Monster Goulash Restaurant. It sure is. See, look at the door. Monster Goulash Restaurant. Hey, Sally. Hi, Charlie. Hi, Louie. What you got cooking? Any spider minestrone? The best. Any fly turnover? Uh-huh. Just begging for you. Help! Help! What's wrong with her? I don't know. Some people you just can't please. once upon a time there was a dark dark universe and in this dark dark universe there was a dark dark country and in this dark dark country there was a dark dark city
and in this dark, dark city, there was a dark, dark street and in this dark, dark street, there was a dark, dark house and in this dark, dark house, there was a dark, dark room and in this dark, dark room, there was a dark, dark closet and in this dark, dark closet, there was a dark, dark coat and in this dark, dark coat, there was a dark, dark pocket and in this dark, dark pocket. It was an orange jelly bean. My name is Barney Spring and I'm from Boystown, Nebraska. In Boystown there's about 300 guys. We live here, we go to school here, we eat here. If somebody asked me how it is in Boystown, I'd say it's okay.
It's not terrific. but it's not horrible either i think it's good for me if if there wasn't boys town there'd be some reform school i'm always on the button anybody else when i first came it took me about a year to get used to boys because i used to get i used to get my behind whooped by a couple guys almost every day. We came up to some Boy Scouts, and they said, Hey, man, there's a cow somewhere in the bushes. Wasn't it, Lanny? Wasn't it? Do you cow? Please. Well, the reason why guys usually pick fights with you, call you rookie or greenhorn, is because they want to test you out. Stack it up. Come on. But you have to do it with certain guys. You have to get through that.
Now I get along real good with almost everybody. because some guys hardly ever get used to it. It's pretty hard to be by yourself with all these guys here. Like, whenever I want to be alone, I just go someplace. I just go messing around. Most of my days are pretty good days, but I know guys that just have terrible days constantly. I think most of the problems why my days have gone wrong is because I get into a lot of arguments What I have on my chest, I speak. I've been here almost three years. But I know some guys that have been here for six or seven years. I guess most guys are here either for a court case,
you know, they've done bad, or else just divorced families. There are guys here without families, too. Sometimes you ask a boy about why he's here. He makes up lies, because, you know, sometimes he's ashamed, but you can't blame him. There is a lot of boys that aren't necessarily bad boys. They're around good people, good teachers. I think it's a good place for boys to be. Mr. Frank Zinski is the assistant director of the Boys Town Choir. He was in the Boys Town Choir. He was one of Father Schmidt's best soprannals.
It took me about a year to get into concert choir. When I first got into choir, I was glad. But then a little later, you sort of want to get out because guys like to kid you about going out for the football team. And they kid you about how out of shape you are. I think it's worth to sacrifice things. Because in the choir, you can go all over the place. I might stick with the choir. It depends on how much my voice changed. I'd have a pretty hard time getting used to a new voice, but that's the same with everybody. Okay, get yourself some tea. homesickness happens a lot out here if you're homesick the only thing you can do with it is cry it out you can't hold it in our building is kind of like family all of my good buddies
are in my apartment. Consists say that our apartment is the dirtiest apartment. It isn't. It's one of the cleanest, and it's one of the funnest apartments, and we get along in there. Rose, I found about five cockroaches by your bed last night. What did it throw out of there? Why'd you tuck them out? Somebody's going to have to pick up the dirt. Put a foot in! Everybody put in a foot! OK, put them up. Put them in. Right here, right here. I want to put my feet in. I'm right. I ain't participating. I'm counting, I'm counting. Come on. I struck a match and it went out. Nice. I struck a match and it went out. Who? Who? Too late, too late. Get out of here. I struck a match and it went out. The guys that are good friends with me now
will probably be split up when we graduate and go into a million directions, but we'll probably still keep in touch. Letters, phone calls. If I look back when I'm growing up at my years of Boys Town, I'd say they were pretty fun years. You twist around with all your mind Stretch your lovin' on straights, out in slaves Then you do the raggy rock with style and grace Swing your foot way round, then you bring it back Now that's what we call ballin' the jack Give us credit, but you know a thing or two Give us credit, we'll try something new We will show this little dance to you When we do, you'll say that it's a ball First you put your two knees closer
We'll be right back. ¶¶ You start to love it, I'm straight out of space Then you do the raggy rock with a silent wave
Swing it quite way round, then you bring it back Now that's what we call ballin' a jack A ballin' a jack First you move it around a bit, then you shake it about a bit, now you twist around a bit, then you swing it about a bit, now you know, now you see, see, see, see, see, do it with me. Come on, give it a try We're gonna show you just why
We're gonna teach you to fly high Come on and zoom, come on and zoom zoom Come on and zoom, come on and zoom, come on and zoom, come on and zoom.
