:38:01
I like it here.
:38:04
I'm pretty sure
my mom and dad live here.

:38:06
I guess they keep an address here,
even though my dad's not around much.

:38:12
My mom-- Swedish girl,
a little excitable.

:38:18
My mother and my father,
they just don't mix very well.

:38:22
The home environment
wasn't what--

:38:26
Had I had a say
in what it should be...

:38:30
it would've been
somewhat different in that--

:38:35
Well, no, it's getting
in the personal.

:38:38
There always was conflict. You never
knew what was going to happen.

:38:42
Sometimes it would be scary,
and I think how he dealt with it...

:38:45
was completely withdrawing
from the family.

:38:52
Two tens and two dollars.
:38:54
So I'll either win ten
or a dollar if I win.

:38:58
- No, I didn't win anything.
- Life is hard.

:39:01
- Yeah, life is hard.
- A potato.

:39:04
- I won two dollars on this one.
- You did?

:39:07
Yeah. See? Two dollars
plus a potato is two dollars.

:39:24
I've been losing about
ten bucks a day for the last week.

:39:29
Here's what I think of the lottery:
I think when you play the lottery...

:39:34
sometimes you win
and sometimes you lose.

:39:38
But it's better than using
drugs or alcohol...

:39:41
because when you use drugs or alcohol--
especially drugs--you always lose.

:39:49
I'm telling this to my ma.
His Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor...

:39:52
drives him over
to his Gamblers Anonymous meetings.

:39:55
Yeah, his sponsor
also has a problem.

:39:59
Yeah.
