Meyer Lansky thinks I have too many BE journals

[recognize_an_opportunity]

As much as I appreciate your interest in my ventures, mun, I think you're missing the point. The way I see it, you'd be better off expressing your interest in someone else. You've got enough other "characters" for that, anyway.

[A shrug.]

I don't want any problems, here, so if you insist, I guess I have no choice but to try and work with you. It might make an uneasy partnership, though.

Sometimes people do stupid things because of their feelings.

[horseish]

I won't ever do that.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Don't say never. Never is a big word.

[horseish]

Have you ever been in love?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

I can't say I have.

[horseish]

I think that's smarter.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

To avoid love altogether? Forever?

[horseish]

I don't know. It's very complicated.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

It is. Most adults don't think about things this seriously.

[horseish]

I think about a lot of things. I'm lucky because I didn't have to go to school so I had a lot more time to think about things.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

School is often a waste of time.

[horseish]

No one else was lucky like me. I got to learn to read and write with my mother. Rosie never got to learn.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Maybe she'll teach herself. I know some people that didn't learn until much later.

[horseish]

Jocelyn and I can teach her.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Good. Those are important things to know.

[horseish]

I think so. I like books. I got a lot more after we went to Los Angeles.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

I like books, too. You can learn a lot just from reading and paying attention to the things around you.

[horseish]

Yes. I learned that from the horses.
