Speaker 2 (21:27):
I'm so out of regulations, you know, and I

So when I got blown up, itdestroyed my ears.
So I've had my ears cut offseven times.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Wait, stop, you've had them cut off seven times.
Mm-hmm.
Yes, they cut them off and theyput them back on.
Yeah, oh, look at that, theycut them off.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
They cut them off, lay them on my cheek and they go
in there.
So they're trying to repair myeardrums right.
Right.
So they cut my ear off, lay iton my cheek and then they go
between my skull and my scalpand pull tissue and rebuild,
yeah, but it's not worked seventimes so.
And then this ear.
I have you know, you got yourthree hearing bones.
Uh-huh this Seven times so.
And then this ear.
I have you know, you get yourthree hearing bones.
(22:14):
Uh-huh, this ear.
They're all prosthetic, yeah,so this ear doesn't work at all.
My auditory nerve works, but myear does not work.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Auditory nerve.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
Mm-hmm Works, but my ear doesn't.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I don't know what the difference is.
So you have your ear right.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I mean, I get the ear , yes, but I mean so like
sometimes when you go get ahearing test right, you know
they'll put stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
So Gage, my oldest son, has got all kinds of
hearing problems, but it's likeright here on both sides.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
They will put something there and you can
actually hear there.
That's where your auditorynerve is.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Right.
So it's like I can feelvibrations and I can hear here,
but I don't hear anythingthrough here.
Got you yeah, and I'm a soundguy, you know?
Speaker 3 (22:57):
yeah, that is very interesting.
Yeah Well, Gage, my oldest sonwas misdiagnosed several times
with they would say it was aviral infection, viral infection
, and take him in and highfevers and what have you, and
blah, blah and not give himanything and poor baby was just
suffering and it was absolutelybrutal.
(23:18):
And, um, come to find out thatwasn't the case, that was ear
infections.
And so then we did a hearingtest when he was five and six
years old, or they put him inthe deal and and they said, well
, he's at 80%.
So if he wanted to join themilitary or whatever, that's
what you have to have in orderto do so.
(23:40):
And then, um, he's so stubbornand high tolerance for pain,
won't go.
And, um, this was probably six,seven, eight months ago where
he had a horrible, horrible earinfection to the point where
they literally thought they weregonna have to go in and do a
(24:00):
whole surgery thing.
And I was like I mean, but areyou just trying to do?
You mean, do you not want tohear what we say?
I mean, just tell us to shut up, or do you just?
I mean, if we're getting onyour nerves, block us or
whatever, but but you cannotjust be, he's got a penis right.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Yeah yes, we don't want to know what's wrong with
us.
We don't want to know.
Oh my gosh, I understand it.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
We don't want to know , but yeah, I mean brutal the
shit.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
That yeah, we, but we will deal with so much because
we don't want to know what'swrong with us.
Because if we have to admitsomething's wrong with us, we're
weak.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
That's stupid.
Especially because, Well, yeahespecially I mean that is kind
of ironic, to say the least whenyour mom was still deboning
your chicken when you were 17years old.
You know you went in there andyou went.
I don't want to eat the chickenoff the bone.
If you had a little tiny, ifyou would have bumped your toe,
(25:02):
you know your mom would havebeen down there 17 years old.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You would have given your toe yeah, yeah, yeah, but
you don't want to tell us, but Ilost Amanda in 06 and I lost my
mom in 07.
So those two years sucked,sucked, yeah.
So I waited a long time, yeah,and then I finally got there.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
It takes a lot.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
I'm gooder now.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Oh, I love that word.
It takes a lot for men to gointo therapy.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
It does.
It does, and I was lucky.
The one that I found was aretired nun.
What and remember what I said,but she had my sense of humor.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I know what's the other kind, Really yeah yeah,
she old.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Oh, she was old dude.
She was old, oh, but she had mysense of humor.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
I'd love to hear her stories, you, but she had my
sense of humor.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I would love to hear her stories, you know, but you
know we always just laugh.
I'm like why am I listening toyou?
You divorced Jesus, okay.
Why am I taking everybody fromyou?
Speaker 3 (25:57):
she's an excellent.
First of all, can we talk aboutyour problems?
Speaker 2 (25:59):
yeah, mary her name was Mary.
Her name was Mary shut the fuckup.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
They're all named Mary.
For fuck's sake she.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
She said no, that's amazing, Is she still?
Speaker 3 (26:13):
I mean she.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
You know, I moved.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
We didn't keep in contact.
We should try to find her.
Nick got some solid-assdetective skills.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
She's probably married to Jesus again, but like
, really they're probablywalking hand in hand we all have
a love-hate relationship.
I'm just saying she's probablyup there with you.
I'm mad at you.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Right now.
I need you again.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
I'm mad at you right now.
It's like when I got hit, youknow I had a God right, god
right, yeah.
Yeah, you know I was raisedChristian with a lot of dude for
years.
Hell, mad you know, and then,one day God just said shut up
dude.
Yes, sir, I stopped questioning.
(26:54):
He'll let me know what's goingon.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yeah, that's a big thought, that's a big
realization.
I learned a lot from a very,very, very, very close friend of
mine that lost their little andit it's.
It's been a struggle for me andand it still is a struggle for
(27:20):
me.
Um, like, I don't know howeverybody handled it, and I did,
I did have and I still, andI've learned how everybody
handles things in different waysand forms and fashions, and um,
but still there's so manyunanswered questions when it
comes to that.
Like, why would you?
Why would you do that?
(27:42):
Why would you, why would youtake that little when we've got
these?
mass murderers that are runningaround doing what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
And so it is.
That's a whole conversationthat yeah needs to.
Yeah, I've grown more in thepast three years than I did in
the first 44 years of my life.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
I feel the same way about myself.
I really do.
Yeah, I feel like in the lastfive to six, I'm guessing, I
have done a lot of soulsearching and coming and
realization and forgiving a lotof family things that I didn't
(28:31):
understand and realizing thatchoices that I've made were out
of ignorance.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
What were the choices that you made?
Were they to please others?
Almost always so I have beenshrinking my circle.
I have been shrinking my circleand the smaller my circle gets,
(28:59):
the happier I become, and foryears I tried to be that guy.
Right, tried to be that guy.
You don't like me, piss off, Idon't care.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
But now I'm that way.
But then I wanted to pleaseeverybody, yep, and I just did
the dumbest shit.
I still do dumb shit, don't getme wrong, but the dumb shit I
do now is for me, right.
I used to do dumb shit for them.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
And shrinking my circle and truly leaning on the
onesies and twosies.
Yeah, I'll be nice to everybodyRight?
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Oh, I'll be nice to everybody.
Speaker 2 (29:35):

Speaker 3 (30:16):
That was me, yeah, and I would overthink it, and it
was like this is and how do youdeal with it?

the patience.

months Months, not days, monthsand identified what the problem
was Holy shit, done, fixed it.
(31:57):
That's just something I'venever dealt with before and she
helped identify it and we dealtwith it together and she and I
are that is so.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's going to make me cry, why?
And I'm going to tell you whyBecause I had a very good friend
.
Still do have a very goodfriend, and you know how we were
just talking about how we makebad choices.
We end up in a fluctuation.
All of make bad choices, we endup in a fluctuation.
All of a sudden we end up in theoh yeah, and um, we went to go,
(38:23):
me and my best friend, and wewent to go see him and in the
pen, and he was three was to dothree months to six years was
what was what was his sentence.
And we went down to go see him.
(38:43):
When he got in there, of courseit was obviously the profiling
and what happens.
We've all seen the shows, weknow what happens.
And if you don't, it's outthere.
But look it up and instantlywent into the defense and he,
he's not, he's got plenty ofstreet smarts, he's tattoo
(39:04):
artists, he's not.
I mean, he ain't afraid of shit.
And so he went in there and hewent in to defend himself and
that's that's how he ended up,um, having to serve the full six
years because he was in trouble.
And but we went to go see himand when he got out, I ran into
(39:28):
him in Kerrville, ironicallyenough, and we'd kept up through
the whole time, as much as wecould because he was in solitary
, through the whole time, asmuch as we could, because he was
in solitary and and they hadbands or whatever on different
levels, that that you would bein inside there and he would be
black banded and that meant thathe was in it, yeah, that he was
(39:49):
in an area where, yeah, no onecould.
Yeah, Yep, he was cuckoo forcoconuts or whatever, because he
would do what he needed to do.
So, um, got out, we weresitting in the curb and we were
talking and, ironically, I waswalking.
It was a big dance hall areaand, um, kind of like a barn
(40:11):
party, so they had the outsidehole shouldn't go in, but the
bathroom area, so it was like afairground.
It was at the fairgrounds,women's bathroom here, men's
bathroom here, and so you walkdown underneath the, the
overhang and whatever.
And I laughed and came out ofthe bathroom and he was standing
in between the women in themen's restroom and I looked at
(40:35):
him and I said, holy shit man.
And I was like I haven't seenyou so you know, since you were
out it'd been a year or two.
And he said I heard that laughand he said I, freaking, knew it
was you, and I mean just tears,and it was so good to see him.
Um has a wife now.
Just started starting family andof course, this was years and
(40:56):
years ago and, um, he said thelaugh that you have and here I
am, here goes my tears sorrynope, um, I think this is really
cool, because this is importantthat he said he was asked a
question when he was in the penand he said what do you miss the
(41:19):
most about being outside?
And he said it was listening tothe laughter and listening to a
baby's, a child's, laugh.
And he said there's nothing inthis world that will ever
replace the sound of listeningto a child laugh.
(41:40):
And yeah, so when you've you'vesaid that to me not once,
you've said it to me multipletimes and every time it goes
back to you and I talk and itgoes back to that conversation
where, but it's true and youthink about these guys that are
in, these women and these menand these whoever's that are,
(42:01):
that are in in lockup and andthey don't ever get to hear a
baby laugh, a child laugh orjust somebody that you love

to court for my dui.
So I come back.
I had a few surgeries and Ihave to go to court right so you
know, I've got my uniform onall my little ribbons, but I I
put on my Purple Heart medal.
I didn't put the ribbon on, Iput the Purple Heart medal on.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I'm out of uniform.
I don't need the red, the firstrunner-up or the second
runner-up.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
I'm so out of regulations, you know, and I
Please tell me the jockstrap wasthe blue lace no.
But no.
So when I got blown up, itdestroyed my ears.
So I've had my ears cut offseven times.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Wait, stop, you've had them cut off seven times.
Mm-hmm.
Yes, they cut them off and theyput them back on.
Yeah, oh, look at that, theycut them off.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
They cut them off, lay them on my cheek and they go
in there.
So they're trying to repair myeardrums right.
Right.
So they cut my ear off, lay iton my cheek and then they go
between my skull and my scalpand pull tissue and rebuild,
yeah, but it's not worked seventimes so.
And then this ear.
I have you know, you got yourthree hearing bones.
Uh-huh this Seven times so.
And then this ear.
I have you know, you get yourthree hearing bones.
(22:14):
Uh-huh, this ear.
They're all prosthetic, yeah,so this ear doesn't work at all.
My auditory nerve works, but myear does not work.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Auditory nerve.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
Mm-hmm Works, but my ear doesn't.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I don't know what the difference is.
So you have your ear right.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I mean, I get the ear , yes, but I mean so like
sometimes when you go get ahearing test right, you know
they'll put stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
So Gage, my oldest son, has got all kinds of
hearing problems, but it's likeright here on both sides.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
They will put something there and you can
actually hear there.
That's where your auditorynerve is.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Right.
So it's like I can feelvibrations and I can hear here,
but I don't hear anythingthrough here.
Got you yeah, and I'm a soundguy, you know?
Speaker 3 (22:57):
yeah, that is very interesting.
Yeah Well, Gage, my oldest sonwas misdiagnosed several times
with they would say it was aviral infection, viral infection
, and take him in and highfevers and what have you, and
blah, blah and not give himanything and poor baby was just
suffering and it was absolutelybrutal.
(23:18):
And, um, come to find out thatwasn't the case, that was ear
infections.
And so then we did a hearingtest when he was five and six
years old, or they put him inthe deal and and they said, well
, he's at 80%.
So if he wanted to join themilitary or whatever, that's
what you have to have in orderto do so.
(23:40):
And then, um, he's so stubbornand high tolerance for pain,
won't go.
And, um, this was probably six,seven, eight months ago where
he had a horrible, horrible earinfection to the point where
they literally thought they weregonna have to go in and do a
(24:00):
whole surgery thing.
And I was like I mean, but areyou just trying to do?
You mean, do you not want tohear what we say?
I mean, just tell us to shut up, or do you just?
I mean, if we're getting onyour nerves, block us or
whatever, but but you cannotjust be, he's got a penis right.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Yeah yes, we don't want to know what's wrong with
us.
We don't want to know.
Oh my gosh, I understand it.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
We don't want to know , but yeah, I mean brutal the
shit.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
That yeah, we, but we will deal with so much because
we don't want to know what'swrong with us.
Because if we have to admitsomething's wrong with us, we're
weak.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
That's stupid.
Especially because, Well, yeahespecially I mean that is kind
of ironic, to say the least whenyour mom was still deboning
your chicken when you were 17years old.
You know you went in there andyou went.
I don't want to eat the chickenoff the bone.
If you had a little tiny, ifyou would have bumped your toe,
(25:02):
you know your mom would havebeen down there 17 years old.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You would have given your toe yeah, yeah, yeah, but
you don't want to tell us, but Ilost Amanda in 06 and I lost my
mom in 07.
So those two years sucked,sucked, yeah.
So I waited a long time, yeah,and then I finally got there.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
It takes a lot.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
I'm gooder now.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Oh, I love that word.
It takes a lot for men to gointo therapy.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
It does.
It does, and I was lucky.
The one that I found was aretired nun.
What and remember what I said,but she had my sense of humor.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I know what's the other kind, Really yeah yeah,
she old.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Oh, she was old dude.
She was old, oh, but she had mysense of humor.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
I'd love to hear her stories, you, but she had my
sense of humor.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I would love to hear her stories, you know, but you
know we always just laugh.
I'm like why am I listening toyou?
You divorced Jesus, okay.
Why am I taking everybody fromyou?
Speaker 3 (25:57):
she's an excellent.
First of all, can we talk aboutyour problems?
Speaker 2 (25:59):
yeah, mary her name was Mary.
Her name was Mary shut the fuckup.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
They're all named Mary.
For fuck's sake she.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
She said no, that's amazing, Is she still?
Speaker 3 (26:13):
I mean she.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
You know, I moved.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
We didn't keep in contact.
We should try to find her.
Nick got some solid-assdetective skills.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
She's probably married to Jesus again, but like
, really they're probablywalking hand in hand we all have
a love-hate relationship.
I'm just saying she's probablyup there with you.
I'm mad at you.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Right now.
I need you again.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
I'm mad at you right now.
It's like when I got hit, youknow I had a God right, god
right, yeah.
Yeah, you know I was raisedChristian with a lot of dude for
years.
Hell, mad you know, and then,one day God just said shut up
dude.
Yes, sir, I stopped questioning.
(26:54):
He'll let me know what's goingon.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yeah, that's a big thought, that's a big
realization.
I learned a lot from a very,very, very, very close friend of
mine that lost their little andit it's.
It's been a struggle for me andand it still is a struggle for
(27:20):
me.
Um, like, I don't know howeverybody handled it, and I did,
I did have and I still, andI've learned how everybody
handles things in different waysand forms and fashions, and um,
but still there's so manyunanswered questions when it
comes to that.
Like, why would you?
Why would you do that?
(27:42):
Why would you, why would youtake that little when we've got
these?
mass murderers that are runningaround doing what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
And so it is.
That's a whole conversationthat yeah needs to.
Yeah, I've grown more in thepast three years than I did in
the first 44 years of my life.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
I feel the same way about myself.
I really do.
Yeah, I feel like in the lastfive to six, I'm guessing, I
have done a lot of soulsearching and coming and
realization and forgiving a lotof family things that I didn't
(28:31):
understand and realizing thatchoices that I've made were out
of ignorance.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
What were the choices that you made?
Were they to please others?
Almost always so I have beenshrinking my circle.
I have been shrinking my circleand the smaller my circle gets,
(28:59):
the happier I become, and foryears I tried to be that guy.
Right, tried to be that guy.
You don't like me, piss off, Idon't care.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
But now I'm that way.
But then I wanted to pleaseeverybody, yep, and I just did
the dumbest shit.
I still do dumb shit, don't getme wrong, but the dumb shit I
do now is for me, right.
I used to do dumb shit for them.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
And shrinking my circle and truly leaning on the
onesies and twosies.
Yeah, I'll be nice to everybodyRight?
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Oh, I'll be nice to everybody.
Speaker 2 (29:35):

months Months, not days, monthsand identified what the problem
was Holy shit, done, fixed it.
(31:57):

Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's going to make me cry, why?
And I'm going to tell you whyBecause I had a very good friend
.
Still do have a very goodfriend, and you know how we were
just talking about how we makebad choices.
We end up in a fluctuation.
All of make bad choices, we endup in a fluctuation.
All of a sudden we end up in theoh yeah, and um, we went to go,
(38:23):
me and my best friend, and wewent to go see him and in the
pen, and he was three was to dothree months to six years was
what was what was his sentence.
And we went down to go see him.
(38:43):
When he got in there, of courseit was obviously the profiling
and what happens.
We've all seen the shows, weknow what happens.
And if you don't, it's outthere.
But look it up and instantlywent into the defense and he,
he's not, he's got plenty ofstreet smarts, he's tattoo
(39:04):
artists, he's not.
I mean, he ain't afraid of shit.
And so he went in there and hewent in to defend himself and
that's that's how he ended up,um, having to serve the full six
years because he was in trouble.
And but we went to go see himand when he got out, I ran into
(39:28):
him in Kerrville, ironicallyenough, and we'd kept up through
the whole time, as much as wecould because he was in solitary
, through the whole time, asmuch as we could, because he was
in solitary and and they hadbands or whatever on different
levels, that that you would bein inside there and he would be
black banded and that meant thathe was in it, yeah, that he was
(39:49):
in an area where, yeah, no onecould.
Yeah, Yep, he was cuckoo forcoconuts or whatever, because he
would do what he needed to do.
So, um, got out, we weresitting in the curb and we were
talking and, ironically, I waswalking.
It was a big dance hall areaand, um, kind of like a barn
(40:11):
party, so they had the outsidehole shouldn't go in, but the
bathroom area, so it was like afairground.
It was at the fairgrounds,women's bathroom here, men's
bathroom here, and so you walkdown underneath the, the
overhang and whatever.
And I laughed and came out ofthe bathroom and he was standing
in between the women in themen's restroom and I looked at
(40:35):
him and I said, holy shit man.
And I was like I haven't seenyou so you know, since you were
out it'd been a year or two.
And he said I heard that laughand he said I, freaking, knew it
was you, and I mean just tears,and it was so good to see him.
Um has a wife now.
Just started starting family andof course, this was years and
(40:56):
years ago and, um, he said thelaugh that you have and here I
am, here goes my tears sorrynope, um, I think this is really
cool, because this is importantthat he said he was asked a
question when he was in the penand he said what do you miss the
(41:19):
most about being outside?
And he said it was listening tothe laughter and listening to a
baby's, a child's, laugh.
And he said there's nothing inthis world that will ever
replace the sound of listeningto a child laugh.
(41:40):
And yeah, so when you've you'vesaid that to me not once,
you've said it to me multipletimes and every time it goes
back to you and I talk and itgoes back to that conversation
where, but it's true and youthink about these guys that are
in, these women and these menand these whoever's that are,
(42:01):
