...because that's the kind
of a man Mike was.

- What's that you're reading?
- San Francisco telephone directory.

:58:50
- I collect names.
- What do you do with them?

:58:53
Just meditate. Wonder what kind
of people go with the names.

:58:56
- Wonder what the names mean.
- Names don't mean nothing.

:59:00
- Oh, no?
- No.

:59:01
- Well, my name's Wainwright.
- Wainwright. So what?

:59:04
My grandpa used to build wagons. A
wainwright's a guy who builds wagons.

:59:09
- Like covered wagons?
- Sure.

:59:11
Maybe he built some
wagons crossed the plains.

:59:14

Sun lamp ready in the forward room.

Phone books are fascinating.
I'm nuts about them.

:59:36
Personally, I use phone books
for long shots.

:59:39
In San Diego, I had nothing to do
and nothing on my mind...

:59:42
Except skirts.
:59:43
So I sees this phone book.
I flip it open. I come to a name.

:59:47
Rosalie Riley.
:59:48
"Pretty name," I says to myself.
"I wonder what she's like."

:59:52
- So...
- So you call her up.

:59:53
No. Why waste time?
:59:55
I go right out to her house,
21 Valley Road.

:59:58
Never forget it.
Had roses all over the place.
