Realizing this is my last movie of 34 and feeling the unceasing pull of time and age and how it all passes by so quickly. Our existence is not even a blink of an eye in the grand cosmic scheme of the universe.
Anyway, now seated.

“Guy who dreams of trains.
Got the railroad in his head.
He’s gonna have these train dreams
Until he’s good and dead
He’s a logger in the woods
Yeah he laid down the track
He’s looking for his family
But they’re not coming back”
Got the railroad in his head.
He’s gonna have these train dreams
Until he’s good and dead
He’s a logger in the woods
Yeah he laid down the track
He’s looking for his family
But they’re not coming back”
