He's, uh, he's, too bad the Mavericks couldn't get him. That's true. With Roy Tarpley they're in big trouble. Yeah. Well then, he's gone now so, they don't have to worry about that. Yeah, for awhile anyway. Well, I thought he was gone period. I, I didn't read the story, but I, I, read that, uh, I heard he was suspende...
It was a lot of money. He was making like, Yeah but, I heard on the radio it was sixty-three thousand and change a month. That's what he was being paid, you know, he wasn't even playing. Yeah.

is that Portland? Portland. Yeah, Portland. Portland. I haven't seen them on much T V that much at all, but all I can do is hear about, boy they have the seeing eye. Uh-huh. What do they have Walter Davis and, They've got two, the two Johnson brothers or they're not brothers, but I mean there's two guys named Johnson o...
Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think there's any clear pick, you know. Uh-huh. I guess the two teams that you can't count out are the Celtics because of Bird, and the Lakers because of Magic Johnson. Uh-huh. They are two guys that seem to find a way when they, When it's on the line. When it's on the line, they seem t...
Take care. Bye. Okay. Okay, now when you baby-sit, what age group children do you sit with? Well, gosh all kinds, um, mostly between the ages of two and ten. Uh-huh. Um, last, like a few summers ago I kept two children every day for the entire summer and, I mean, they became like my children I'd think so. And, um, and ...
it, it just seems like there was always something to do. Children are so full of energy. Uh-huh. And, oh, they were, they just, they just keep you going Now was this a one parent or two parent family? Uh, one parent. One parent. Yeah. She's just, How much time did she spend with them? Not much at all I mean, I would ge...
I've been baby-sitting this child, uh, for about eight years, he's nine now and, um, you know, I've watched him grow up and he's like a little brother to me. Uh-huh. And it's changed over the, over the years, um, we get along a lot better now that he's older. Uh-huh. And, uh, we do different things now, we used to play...
Uh, communications. Well, sounds like your getting a lot of experience in communicating with children Oh, yeah, I mean, I love children. Uh-huh. Um, I don't know, seem, this looks like a typo for 'see,' when I was growing up my Mom stayed at home with me and my brother until we were in junior high. And I don't, it woul...
Uh-huh. Yeah. But now I realize that it was better because, um, they have got into a lot of trouble, because of lack of supervision. Uh-huh. Well, that, that certainly can happen now if you, you say you're in communications, Uh-huh. uh, what base of communications would you be most interested in getting in to? Well, I'...
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. and in that case then I'll be, I'll be at home when my children are at home, but I'd like to stay at home with them until they get in, at least into kindergarten, where they're at school from what, eight to three or something Uh-huh. and then I would be at my school, teaching. Uh-huh. Uh-huh, uh-huh. An...
I taught physical education. Oh, oh, I started out as a P E major, in education. Uh-huh. I wanted to be a P E teacher. Well, I sure did. I, uh, I found that, uh, it was a perfect combination from the standpoint of having vacations off at the same time. Oh, yeah. And, uh, and it worked out fine from that standpoint, uh,...
Oh. and I wouldn't have checked on him. However, uh, there are, there are, points both directions in that, uh, from the standpoint of parents working and not working. Yeah. Uh, I listened to more than one parent say I don't know what this child wants. I'm working two jobs, they each have their own television, they each...
That's right. but we did and, and we lived in a trailer for eighteen years. Huh. And, um, you know, we, we only had one car, we only had one telephone, you know, Uh-huh. we didn't get to eat out all the time but I, I feel like that it helped me now because I appreciate the value of the dollar, Right. and, um, I also ha...
you cannot, reverse that trend at that point. It is. It's way too late, Right. I agree. And, uh, while parents very often will be involved with the school activities when the child's in the elementary school and they get into the high schools so often they seem to drop away at that point. And, that is just as valuable,...
So, I feel that I learned a great deal from my students, uh, with regard to what their biggest complaints were with parents. And a thing such as, uh, one of the biggest complaints I well remember because I spent a lot of time with seniors, uh, was, um, carrying their when I was your age I didn't have this or that, Uh-h...
but when he went away to and he was on the lawns from the time he was in the seventh grade and, uh, a small and all the way through college and he held three jobs. Wally was in college * Could this Wally be "while he . . ."? and we didn't even know it. Oh, goodness. He didn't even tell us. Uh, that he had three jobs bu...
Well, you know, I'm like, I'm not really sure what I think about this. Um, uh, I mean, the first thing is, the uh, if it's going to be mandatory, it's got to be mandatory, I mean, everybody, not just like, you know, poor people and all that, you know. But, you know, senators' sons and all that stuff too. Right, right. ...
Uh-huh. And I guess I see that as, as not so much a demand but, but a privilege. It's, it's kind of, uh, uh, It's something, It is, uh, it's, it's since we live here and we all benefit, rich, poor or in between, uh, there are benefits even for those who have it the hardest. I just see that as maybe a good idea. I would...
oh, you're going to go to this camp and you're going to, you know, like, um, back in the Depression, the C C C, Yeah. it was needed, it gave some folks some jobs, and we got some great public works out of it. But, um, I don't see that as being necessary now. I can see it being done, uh, on a regular schedule. Uh-huh. U...
That's right. You take pride in that, and, and get some, some positive feedback from those who benefit, besides yourself. Uh-huh. And I, I see it being most beneficial if it's in the neighborhood where or, or at least the area where the person lives. Uh, definitely. It might not be the same neighborhood, but the same c...
Uh-huh. Uh-huh Yeah. Do you have kids? no, not yet In about six months we will Oh, well good. you'll have a little time think about that. I guess, I, I have, uh, when I was teaching school I saw many, so many kids that were at loose ends and that didn't really have a purpose. And I can see, you know, some, some really ...
Boy Scout troops or church groups or civic clubs will, uh, police a, uh a couple of miles of the highway and and I, I've seen it in other states too. Yeah. They have, that here. Um, I don't know, um, they've got, um, in most of the states around here I think, uh. You know, down in North Carolina, there was a big contro...
and I thought I had seen, when we were traveling around the state, some similar signs up that indicated that certain sections were being policed and cleaned up and, Yeah. I think Virginia's got it and I know Maryland does, and we just, we went to Indianapolis last weekend, and back. And, um, I'm pretty sure I saw, yeah...
Uh-huh. Well, the thing about that is though, it's got a, I mean because it was, I mean it was big, you remember, like in the early seventies and all that. And, you know, and then it kind of just went out of vogue. And I, I'm worried that it, it might, you know, it'll, it, the same thing will happen. It's like, you kno...
it's just probably a good thing that the oil's burning and may, may, make some people realize that hey, you know, this stuff runs out. That's, that's right, because, Of course, that's probably blasphemy for you to say, uh, coming from where you are in Texas. Uh, no, no, because if, we, what was it, seventy-four when we...
so um, you know, I, I wonder sometimes if he knows what he's doing. Well, I you know, just about anybody you could name, whether I voted for them or not, uh, makes, um, uh, decisions that I just can't go along with. Uh-huh. But that's why they're there and not me. I don't want the, I don't want the stress. Yeah. Well, ...
Yeah, uh, you know, that's a good way to approach it. I've never thought about, um, I do plan my clothes a week in advance. Actually, I plan them a month in advance. I usually do a month at a time, so I don't repeat an outfit. Uh-huh. But, um, I've never thought about wearing your worst outfit on Monday, because really...
and you have to be there right after school or something like that, so. Right. Like where I work, it's, it's pretty casual, uh, it's, it's, I guess it's more like a, a college campus also, I mean there's you know, hundreds of people work for T I. Yeah. And, uh, a lot of people just, just wear jeans and, and, uh, sweats...
But, uh, he goes to work in his blue jeans, t-shirt, and tennis shoes, Uh-huh. and he just loves it. And that's very acceptable at T I. Yeah. I believe at I B M they, they make you wear a blue suit and, uh, some kind of colored shirt and a tie. That's what I've heard. Uh-huh, I I would hate to be in that atmosphere. B...
Yeah, oh, T I is everywhere. Oh, yeah, he was so excited about going. Uh-huh. But, uh, he didn't carry any ties or anything because he, he just went over there with the that attitude, well if I don't take it then they won't make me wear it That's true, that's a good idea. Because, uh, he just, he didn't, you know, he's...
Yeah, and if you happen to go into one of areas that is a smoke, smoke area and you don't smoke, you almost strangle. Oh, really. Do you smoke? So much smoke in the air. Yeah, areas, the smoking area, you know, it's closed in, Uh-huh. and if you if you don't smoke and you go in there, everybody that goes in there smoke...
she always had, uh, yeah, she always had to have a lot of clothes. See that's how, that's how I am but my mamma was not raised like that and so, No, I, I wasn't either, she, my daughter, she's real good at finding sales though, you know. Oh, me to, boy I have to, hunt them down she'll buy a lot of, yeah, she'll buy a...
but that, I mean, that can really benefit. Right. Um, that's something that I'd be very interested in, very interested in learning. Right, because clothes are are really expensive. You know, Uh, they're outrageous! uh, uh, a little simple shell, shell blouse, you know, that you can make for about, say ten dollars at, y...
especially to pay that kind of money for it. Yeah. I have a friend who, uh, she had a, she had a a little boy and, uh, she used to dress him out of Neiman Marcus. I mean, she dressed him, uh, fabulously. Oh no And then, seems like every time she turned around he was outgrowing stuff. Uh-huh. And she finally learned th...
Yes, and you, I try to, uh, always catch the sales. Right. Always And, yeah, and you just have to keep buying them, you know. If you, if you, if you're not buying the most expensive clothes out there the, the quality is really not that great, you know, for the price that you pay. Yeah, it, it depends on, um, yeah, ther...
it was just, you know, it was just plain, a plain, uh, you know, round, uh, necked, uh, sweater. Uh-huh. And it had, like, it was embellished around the, the top, you know, it had, uh, leather, leather designs and, um, some other, other little things on it and I just thought it was so pretty and I I got it at a real go...
And then I was told by somebody that works for J C Penney's that, uh, Ross, Ross is just one of those places that sell, sells seconds. The defect. Yeah, yeah, um, they don't really buy the first quality, they buy the second. And, uh, places like J C Penney's that they'll reject the seconds, they'll send them back every...
Uh-huh, yeah, I do too. I think it's going to, in, like in the future, I think all women are going to work. Yeah. I mean, they may let you off for a day or two to have your baby, but that will be it, Yeah. or either they'll have a computer at home and in the hospital where you can just, you know, just continue right on...
Uh-huh. Oh, that is good. I mean I didn't work, I, I needed to but I didn't. Yeah, Steve's, Steve has a sister who has four. She just had her fourth one in, uh, March and she doesn't have to work either. I don't know how they do it. I I don't know how people do it with one, you know, um Let me tell you, you go without ...
right. You know and, Well it's getting where you can't hardly afford, if you're going to give your kids any kind of education and stuff you can't hardly afford to have over two. Right. And I mean it's hard with two, now, we, uh, my youngest one, I have two, I have a son and a daughter, and my youngest one is going to b...
but still, it cost a lot. Oh, yeah, I mean, just the, you know, the cost of living and loans don't pay for groceries and stuff. Right, and cars and all their books, and the books are outrageous. I mean, absolutely outrageous, Oh, I know, I know. and they're getting worse. Uh, my daughter brought home a book the other d...
but in essence you probably would have worked out fine. Right, but I think I would have had to work. Yeah. If I'd of had that many, I'd of had to work in order for my kids to, you know, even though he brings in a real good living and everything, in order for me to keep up, I would have had to work. Yeah. But I think it...
Yeah. and, um, well I work all week, and, um, I can't imagine how I stayed home. Yeah. You know, I think to myself, what did I do. And I think it just, it revolutionized an, where a woman thinks that a way, you know, just like, now my daughter, there's no way that she can imagine herself married at the age that she's a...
and the woman stayed home and took care of them, an. I, uh, I, I like the way it is. Yeah. It's, uh, being, see, we're from Houston and so it's not so hard for people, you know, you've been married three or so years and you don't have kids, well it's okay, nobody does. But you come to a place like Belton, and a lot of ...
and, I'd rather spend the time with my husband than, you know, spending time, here, it's your turn, you know. Yeah, but, you know, that, now even whenever I was coming up and everything and we got married right out of high school, well a year after I got out of high school Uh-huh. and, uh, I didn't have kids for four a...
Well you don't just get ready. But I was kind of odd because as a general rule the people that married during my time, they had kids within a year. Yeah. And I just was not ready for kids. I wanted to get out and work a little bit and I wanted to travel and stuff like that, which we did. And, uh, kids didn't fit in rig...
but it took every nerve in her body to say that because she's from a very, very old fashioned family. Uh-huh. And, she stayed home and raised her kids and, and she expected all of her kids to do that too, and their wives and to be the, the housewife and have dinner ready by five and, and, you know, be there at every be...
I mean, it really does. Accept for what we give to my daughter, to, you know, put her through college and stuff. * Spellingusage: "Accept" should be "Except" Uh-huh. But the rest of it we just buy things like boats, or we go on trips, or, you know, just the more or less like entertainment stuff, Right. but. Yeah, I th...
And I think it's just the new way that people are thinking. Yeah, I think so. But, uh, I think it would be neat if, if they could incorporate into small and large businesses both a built in day cares where the children were there in the facility but not necessarily right there with you. Well you know more and more of t...
Oh really. Yeah. All right. Okay. Well, I can go ahead and start and tell you mine and, Okay. We're from San Antonio and that's where I grew up, Oh, So I was used to the heat, out here right now, Yeah. Gosh, it gets to about seventies, high seventies and it gets very cold at night. Uh-huh. And Monterey it's, um, right ...
It's a big area for people to come from the different, uh, countries, mostly like Japan, Germany and England. And they usually go to Carmel and vacation on the beaches, so it's, it's pretty nice, uh, year round. But, uh, cool, always cool in the evenings. And warm, warm in the Summer, but it's stays pretty cold even, u...
It goes from Winter to Summer, usually. Uh-huh. Spring usually consists of a lot of rain. Especially thunderstorms. We've got, we had one of those blow through tonight. Oh, well, that's good. And I think we got the same thing in the forecast for the next two or three days. Uh-huh. So. Have y'all been having any heat wa...
Yeah, quite a bit. Oh, Uh-huh. Well, the season is just about over for that, uh, in fact we drove down to Corpus last week Uh-huh. and, uh, there were still some paint brushes and bluebonnets down along the way. Oh, I miss that drove through San Antonio and I spoke to somebody else this morning from San Antonio and wer...
Uh-huh. We had a pretty rainy Fall last year, as well. Y'all weren't getting any of the strings of the tornadoes and stuff were you? Um, we've had a few down here, but not anything like Kansas. Uh-huh. But this is the season for that. Oh, gosh. They do, they do pop up occasionally, around here. Uh-huh. Oh Yeah. I real...
The biggest problem with, with the weather and the rain in this area is the soil. It's that black clay soil. Oh. Is that what Dallas is, okay. Yeah. You know, it's not sandy like most of the state is, so it doesn't absorb the water real well. Uh-huh. You know, once it rains a little bit, it's, it's filled up and everyt...
Uh-huh. Well, we could use some rain up here. We're like in the bottom of the fourth year of drought, up here Really. and they had a pretty good early Spring and we got quite a bit of rain, but it wasn't enough to offset what they lost over the last four years. Uh-huh. And, uh, so they're still talking water rationing...
but, um, they turn to golden dead grass, for the majority of the Summer just because there is no water to keep them green. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Yeah. But, um, it's a really nice area. It's just, it's just such a change from, uh, Texas because I had grown up with, uh, the heat, Uh-huh. and used to essentially, like you sai...
Uh-huh. But it's a really nice, uh, change of pace. I guess I'd prefer that Yeah. To the heat. I really don't miss the heat. Yeah. Um, we do a lot of, you know, when you do a lot of outside, like running and stuff, it's just so much easier, up here Uh-huh. and you don't have to worry about the high humidity. Yeah. Doe...
Yeah. It seems like San Antonio is increasing in humidity over the years, because I had lived in San Antonio for about twenty years, Uh-huh. and it just seemed like every year it just got more and more humid, more and more humid And here it's, uh, well it's right by the ocean, Uh-huh. but, um, it's not the same as Corp...
It's just completely different and it's much nicer. Yeah. Probably the Pacific breezes make a lot of difference, Uh-huh. It does and the air doesn't feel anything like it does along the gulf coast region. But you, um, but we like it so it's a nice change. So we'll be here a couple of years and we thought well, we'll ta...
We, we're over in the western edge in the mountains. Oh. And, they have, of course, some pretty severe storms, Winter storms, snow and that type of thing. Uh-huh. But they're so good about clearing the roads, that, you know, it doesn't usually bother you very much. Uh-huh. Yeah Not like Texas where everything comes to ...
Yeah. So, they, the people I know that are from there, uh, they always miss it and they want to go back Nothing seems quite as good. But, anyway. Well, Well, as we were talking the weather came on and there's a flash flood watch and, more rain for the next three or four days. Oh, gee-whiz. Oh, gosh. Well, I hope it mo...
Yeah. Good luck to you. Uh-huh. You, too. Okay. We'll see you. Bye. Bye. Well, what movies have you seen recently, Valerie? Let's see, the last one we saw was THELMA AND LOUISE. Oh, we haven't seen that one yet. Well, don't bother Oh, it wasn't that good. Well, oh, from a woman's point of view and it was very, uh, chau...
That was excellent. It was just a really, a really funny movie. That is one I've been dying to see. At the same time, it had a story line about people trying to find themselves. There were parts that were sad. I mean, it just ran the gamut of emotion. Uh-huh, uh-huh, and, And, but it was just all around entertaining. H...
We, we rented one recently that seemed to go on forever That always seems to happen when you rent them, you know Yeah, but this one, it was fairly long. I, I'm guessing probably an hour and forty-five minutes, maybe. Uh-huh, uh-huh, and, uh, it, But excellent acting by Billy Crystal and Bruno Kirby, Was it, oh, good. U...
Okay, okay, good deal Yeah. good deal. Do you rent movies very often, or, Uh, we generally rent a couple a week. Uh, in order to get a decent movie to have on a weekend, you've got to rent it on Thursday. Right. Right. They get they get taken up at the store, That's exactly right. so, Uh-huh, uh-huh. We will rent two o...
right. Most of them are a coin flip Oh, gosh. Yeah, yeah. And we usually have, oh, we don't get out as much as we like. We have two children, so we occasionally get out to the movies Yeah. but, uh, it's, it's fun, it's a fun thing to do to get out and be entertained for once. Yeah, well, Quite frequently, we have our g...
The, uh, the oldest is nine, the youngest is three. He doesn't really pay attention. Yeah, yeah. The five year old doesn't have the attention span, either. Uh-huh, uh-huh. But the, the nine year old will watch anything that's on T V Uh-oh, uh-oh, yeah. So, They have been doing that. We've been waiting for a, a good mov...
but we can generally find something at the store for them to watch. Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah, well, that's a good deal. The, uh, oh, we saw this movie, PRESUMED INNOCENT was the one we rented, uh last weekend. Okay, let me think if I have rented that one. Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford and, how does the story line go? It's, uh...
uh-huh. It's, it's over two hours long. Oh, gosh, oh, gosh. Which, uh, my wife she likes the suspense movies. I enjoy them to a degree. Uh-huh. I think that's the one I wanted to pick up the other day, and then my husband wasn't going to be able to watch it with me, so I thought I better save that one for another day S...
okay, well, that's a good one to put on the list. It, it's like most suspense movies, what was it was on T V recently, uh, FATAL ATTRACTION. Uh-huh. It's one that, once you've seen it once and, uh, the suspense there is not really you really can't see it again Right, okay. so you know all the story and who did what and...
I don't know, we've watched WEEKEND AT BERNIE'S any number of times I know It's just slapstick comedy Oh, no Oh Sit there and laugh, and, my one grandson and I, my wife can't understand it, but we like BILL AND TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE which is another funny one Oh, gosh. Yeah, we've heard about that one, but we haven...
I don't want to uh, go away depressed from watching a movie. Right. Right, right. I agree, I agree. Life's depressing enough That's for sure Well, I've certainly enjoyed talking with you. Well, you, too, Jim. Okay, bye. Thanks for punching in and, uh Have a nice weekend. I hope you see a good movie soon. Okay. Okay. By...
Okay, I guess we're going to discuss food and cooking. Alright Do you enjoy cooking? Sometimes, not all the time I'm kind of that way, too. When I have, I, I enjoy cooking when I have time. Right. I don't enjoy preparing three meals a day everyday Yeah, that, that's about the same boat I'm in, too. It gets kind of bori...
So, Are they? And they get pretty particular sometimes in what they want to have. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we have that problem too. Huh. But also, now it's just the amount that they eat. It's just absolutely incredible Oh yeah, well see, I, my oldest is nine and he already he already does that Yeah. Does he? And I told him ...
Um, My husband and I, our favorite meal is, uh, and we do it like for special stuff celebrations and, we have like steak Uh-huh. and he does the steak and then uh, Out on the grill? Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And he marinates it in his special stuff that he does. Ooh And it's real good. Uh-huh. And, uh, I do sauteed mushrooms, ...
Ooh, that's sound good. I love that. My husband really likes seafood. Yeah, so do we like a Um, and, I think that no matter what I do, I don't serve enough of it, really, to, uh, to suit him. I didn't grow up eating that much seafood and, uh, so I don't know, it's just kind of not natural to me but I like it. Yeah. And...
no. That's kind of Louisiana I think if you do that. I don't know what that, Yeah, I don't see how you eat that, but I don't either But, uh, no this is just it is really good and, and one thing that's good is it makes the, a large amount. And so I've, usually we eat one and I freeze two containers of it. Oh. Then that...
it defeats the purpose. Yeah, it really does. One thing I've run across, recently though, a friend gave me a recipe that I really like for chicken enchiladas. Oh yeah. Have you made them? Yeah. My husband makes those. Does he, ooh. I'm not, I don't eat enchiladas. Uh-huh. I, I don't like I don't like the I don't know, ...
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know, I, it's, I don't know what, I don't know. I, I don't know what it is about the enchiladas. I just, and I'm the only one including my Mom and Dad and my brother. I'm the only one that doesn't eat it Isn't that something? Yeah. But, my kids love it. I was going to say, my kids both eat it. I gu...
Yeah, I've got a chicken casserole that's like that, that, that I've, It, it's nice when it makes, a lot because you can feed your own family and then, Yeah, because I, when I make this chicken casserole I, it, it makes a real big casserole and then another one that I freeze. Uh-huh. So, or I give it to my Mom and Dad ...
I do it to taste. Uh-huh. Sure. And, Sometimes those are the best ones, Well yeah, but it, it's like, it's just chicken, it, it's, as much as you want, you know torn up and, and rice and cream of chicken soup and some mayonnaise and lemon juice and celery Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. and that's it, and some hard-boiled eggs...
Uh-huh. And that's it, you know Um. And it, it, it goes That sounds good. and it's filling because of the rice. Right. So, You cook the rice before you put it in? Uh-huh. Yeah. Yeah. I bet the mayonnaise in there makes it really, kind of gives it a tang that would be good. Yeah, it gives it a, an extra yeah, little...
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. and, and, you know, basically it certainly a low calorie, you know, good thing except then you put your mayonnaise in there and spoil the whole thing. I know. You know and now it's, it's, it's okay and you can even, I used to just put a tiny bit in. Well now, I'm just putting more and more in I don't li...
Well with my kids I don't, they get enough sugar and stuff anyway. Mine are bouncing off the walls normally anyway. Yes And they don't need any added help. Right. So, when we're here at home, you know, with sweets and stuff, they, they don't, we don't really do that much. I do a lot of fruits instead of the cakes and t...
No, not yet. Um, and my other one does not. Huh. So, oh, year or so ago he found out and he went on a fairly strict diet to try to get it down. And did! He was able to get it down. It's, I think it's mostly hereditary because we really have never eaten high things in cholesterol. Yeah. He's never eaten any eggs. He's ...
