Ronnie:
We lived in a little room, man. It was, it was probably a fourth as big as, as your livin room, Frank. (cough) And uh, everytime we picked a booger we d flip it on this one winduh, or wipe it there if we couldn t flip it there, y know. And uh, I guess Dwight stayed with me for about.... bout seven months, wasn t it? Six months? And uh, every night we d contribute, y know, two or three or four boogers, y know. And when he left, uh my mom knew what was goin on all the time but we thought we had her hoodwinked. Y see, she was smarter than we, what, than what we were. An she made us clean em off, y know? We used Ajax and we couldn t get them things...we had to use a... had to use a putty knife, man, to get them damn things off the winduh. You couldn t even see out the winduh with all them boogers, man. I m not kiddin you (sniff). An it was big ones too, an little, and there was some goober ones that weren t even hard man, you d just smear em, young ones. It s like fro-you ve seen frosted glasses. That wind
uh was just like a frosted glass with spots all over it, y know? And uh, (sniff) it was- it was no good. Although, th-that was the good ol days, though.
