- Transcript
Did all this stuff, you know, shot N -M -E, and it's made for viewers like you, so different story here. Michael is disgusting. Oh God, it's my demise, this whole weekend was drinking. You know, and the man himself is there? So I just, I was two days, I just drank a drink and then what he wants. Can we do it again, Patrick? Oh, yeah, they were wealthy people, I guess they're okay. They put me up at
this, oh, they have a nice joint though. It's, it was really, actually the tranquility of standing out and just watching the waves break at you. I haven't had that a long time. Very rarely do I find places that, you know, that was a moment. Okay, take one of those and put it right on the lens. Okay, without the tape. Again? And then put it, put it right up to the lens and then like, put it, oh, I've got got a good idea. Let's get one like this and go.
This isn't a forgetting board, you could like do this job. Wait for me, I'm sorry. Go ahead and just go with that. Just put them down and cover them. Like right here? Yeah, you can actually more up in here, like on that side. Is that, you're doing that? You know, something season, I think you got us put some over here. They may not have sent, they may not have sent me all the rocks, man, it's weird. Okay, go ahead, Patrick. Is it Charles on the
phone? Okay, I'll be right there. Is that okay? Yeah, that's great. Yeah, actually, you know, I would have more food if you took the 49ers and the bears. I don't fear the bears. You don't fear them. Well, that's why I said I'd take the bear. It's just, but I'll take, I mean, 49ers, they're tough. But you've got four pass runs. You know, I like to, I like to, I'm three. You got three. I'm sorry. Celerot. Celerot. Pirate top. Ticknobal. Ticknobal type. Throw that right on the top of that top when you're towards the lens. Oh, better than that. Just hit the lens with it. Yeah, and it's, you know, you've got it like almost memorized what's going on. I know we have that one. That's the one we go on the snowballs. And you go up against that people, early
statue, kind of creature that's in the wall. That's super contrary. Yeah, I've got super contrary to actually. Yeah. At first, you think it like played for 50 hours. Zelda, have you played Zelda? Have you captured all the triforces? Listen to this. I had Zelda beat. I was in a network with these kids in LA. They would call me up and tell me where like secrets were. I had everything. I had everything. I had the nine triforces and I was going into the last land. Just great. Yeah, just keep going pretty soon. I've got to. I've never ever are untired of stringing rocks. I hate it. I've done this. You know, this is like the third time. Getting serious. This
is pathetic. When they're doing this sanity. We need to huckle out and hire around 50 Taiwanese to do this work. They're all working in computers. What do you think of Bobby Ray Hall leaving? You know, I was wondering when he do that. He just, you know, he's like high on points and he's still like playing second fiddle. Patrick, get a handful together with two hands and I'm just putting it right in the lens hood cup. Oh, sure. And all the powder will come out. Here's one. Well, when
you guys think of children, Susan, are you not going to ever have kids? You know, I think of, I'm thinking about adopting. But it's time to hang in a trinitite. That's what I want to tell you. Okay, trinitite actually. Ready? It's time to hang the trinitite. Just like this. It's called micking it. Oh, why? Why do you need all this stuff? Oh, because it's just the shadows and the mentionality of it.
What do you think it's done? That's good. I don't know, you're right. I can only do this so often, you know, one set. This was actually for a Polaroid set and we thought it would just reinstall it for, which it was reinstalled for the nuclear enchantment work. This is the first piece you did, isn't it? Yep. I hope all the stuff holds, because it's just the... What's the history of it? The history. It was a part of what people used... Well, the stuff you did, and it made us know what aspects of history were involved. You mean when... Sure, when at
5 .29 and at 5 .29 in the morning, July 16, 1945, after the first atom bomb was exploded, Fermi goes in with it, but it's a Sherman tank that's lead lined and he finds all this green rock that's laying around by ground zero. And it's hot. And what it is, it's the sand that's been fused through intense heat to form this greenish, glowing rock. And they called it trinitite. And since then, it's been bulldozed into a lead line building and it sits out there. And a lot of albuquerqueons have it in their collections at home and doing with cancer, I guess. Trinitite. Gotta hit this.
Yeah. Ready? You know what you can do? You can just get some of those little rocks and put tape on it and just tape it to these strings. You know, what the heck? It's just K -N -M -E craziness. 22. Do you hear about all these tourists trying to find fun and take a home, you know? Right. Yeah, for a while they did. We've got to know that there's got to be some of that, you know, at least a couple of other houses in the city with trinitite. Exactly. I think Rod had some at one point. He went out there and he collected ants also. Okay. Them.
Oh, God. Where do you want these to go? Well, I think if you can tape them to the string, that'll be great. Oh. Yeah, it's ridiculous, but that's... Unfortunately, this is like doing the real thing. Oh, shit. Now, just grab string and you just... And things that I have to do have to put you in front of this and put them into a brawl. And then you can go to the second tier and bring it down. Oh, boy.
There's some brawls here. The old trinitite and brawls. Ready? Go ahead, Patrick. Here you go. Here you go. Ready? Oh, let's start again. Ready? Here we go. Oh, you better try to figure it out.
Yeah, we lucked out. This is one prop we didn't bring. Hold right there. Keep singing. How about... What's your guys? How about the end shutters? Oh, no. Okay. Now, if you were rowing, your hand felt was spinning. That's it. Come by again, please. Hold for a second, I can double -check focus. Okay, one more time, please. Great. We're just fine. I used to string them actually.
It's a real set. They're strung through this. I'm not going to do that. It's another hour. Yeah, it's good to try to load up the back and then move. Oh. I want to take. Two days. Pull the rod. It took us eight hours. But that's a really great shot. It's really worth it. Let's see. Let's see. Go ahead. Okay. Let's do it again.
Yeah, that's it. Great. Okay, now we're making that right. Okay. Now, do you go around pulling out? Okay, great. Drop them and go. Oh no, this is... We're not doing this other than... Right, right. We're just doing this for the camera. Good. Good fun. This way here. Yeah, that's the lens you wanted from the beginning.
Yeah. I only got it back. Can I have the model? Sure. Okay. We painted all that. Do you want to try to make sure that that angle is really... I like you to take your face and move it in real. I almost try to look down the barrel of the lens as you can. Move your face closer to the angle. Line it up and just look up and down and move your head up and down. Great.
Jim Hathman also, you've seen him. Yeah, he's been around, I guess. Yeah, he's been around. Well, just a verbal fight. What? I got the Olivia Newton John spit on me and I haven't taken a shower in 13 weeks. That was funny. But there were lots of sports guys. I drove a cab for a while and I actually drove Muhammad Ali around. That was really great. It was really funny. Thank you.
