Let's go out to try.

I get a glove.

-My old glove somewhere?

It's a box of things your

up on the attic. See to it.

-Do you have hidden things?

-One should not throw anything.

Come, Billy, morfar is here.

How are you doing?

I should have bet on

that you do not come.

When you had lost.

-I have included a turkey.

-It can we have for dinner.

-Do you like turkey?

-Who does not like turkey?

You can use my razor.

You should not order people.

Most of my life

is in the picture.

The whole neighborhood was faced up to the

the fight. It is oldefaren your --

-Old Iron Joe.

And that's me. Great guy.

Some thought it.

Others did not.

Look at it in the light.

It is Ty Cobb autograf from 1911.

It was the year he made 420.

Cobb was fl. He came often

at me with knots arrived.

-But he was the best.

-Better than Babe Ruth?

Better and tougher --

-And barskere and faster.

But the Babe did more home runs. / I

Do you want the ball?

Who has not it?

So take it.

However, it is best to turn up Cobb.

I remember the dress.

It was findressen.

-Wondering whether the appropriate one now.

-Go down and press it.

-I will take with the gloves.

-Yes well.

This is a room with Danny.

It is big.

There have morgensol.

It's nice.

And what

if I drank too much wine?

Who raker it?

Who knows

how much I drank?

-Do you have a place to sleep tonight?

-Yes.

I always have a place to be.

Do you want to move home?

I have considered it.

It should I like to admit.

But I know

that it would not work.

It has happened merkeligere things.

Name one.

If you were on kirkegrden

and talked with Gerald.

-It's good where he is located.

-There is a gravsted to you there as well.

Right next to the stone ...

A link to you and to the children.

Purchased a gravsted to me

after I disappeared?

You are a part of the family.

Peg is bitter because

you've been gone.

It was I, too, for many years.

But I've come over it now.

I do not want to quarrel with Peg.

I can not explain to me.

I know it's hard for you.

But Danny and Billy know

what it is all about.

He was glad to help you,

even if he does not want to admit it.

-He had a boom out of prison.

-You are hard on yourself.

I am hard against everything and everyone.

You condemned the joke.

You are dead. Unless you are there,

should you have to be.

I would rather die in ugresset,

than to stand here and see you sykne away.

It is I who live.

It is I who have done you know.

There is no one thing you know

which I do not know.

Insert avgrde with you.

I am tired of looking at you.

Fran then ...

Annie ...

I want to eat all the earth

in the garden for your own sake.

And all the ugresset and kjttbeina,

if you ask me about it.

There you have the degree of eaten it all.

How is it, Margaret?

It's nice.

But it's not your fault.

Give him a chance.

He has just arrived.

Has he ever given

me a chance? Or you?

Man dolls are not only up,

and so are all forgiven.

I expect no forgiveness.

There have I given up for longer.

Why come back as

a spectre then, with a lean turkey?

-The roads when the 6-kg.

-Why are you here now?

This is a home

that you have not created.

I have created you.

I have created Bill.

-In each case, in part.

-Yes, unfortunately.

You are dirty in the mouth.

Pat again.

He's just visiting.

I asked if he would be,

and he said no to.

So everything is settled?

Nothing to be determined.

As your mother says,

I lost again.

-It's a good thing.

-You are like a rattlesnake.

I'm sorry that I have feelings

at all.

-A hard dame.

-She come to rest.

-Ever heard the boys?

-No.

He toys with the ball and hansken

you ga him.

He has not been given gloves.

Gloves are.

It is not that great today.

If you want to give him it, then do it.

But I've always wanted

that the Bill would have it, --

-So it was something

from his father in the house.

A great fragrance of turkey.

Plumpuddingen is for you. Mother Says

that it is yndlingsdesserten.

It's sweet of you to remember it.

I have a letter here --

-That I got up in Canada --

-When I played baseball in Toronto.

Do you hear that?

"Dear father."

"You probably do not think you have

a daughter who is waiting for a letter. "

I was so angry,

that I would run off with a circus.

"I hope,

it goes well with the team. "

"My mother has been given 14 young chicken" --

-"And now comes the cowboy-show.

Can not you come home and see that? "

"Billy is to set up now,

and the mother keeps an eye on me. "

"I hope not

you have found another lady "--

-"For when I luggen in her hair.

Kjrlig greeting, Peggy. "

I can not remember that I wrote it.

There is much you do not remember

from the time. You were only 9 years old.

I remember Toronto in 1913.

We had a judge called Bates.

It held on to be dark, --

-But he would not blow of the match,

because he held with the others.

So Pudge Howard, griperen spring.

came up with something --

-Together with me

and the roller, Pocket Wilson.

Pudge makes ready to accept,

and Pocket send off a rocket.

It is wrong, "says the judge.

"Is it true

so I eat it, "said Pudge.

"As a den," said the judge.

So Pudge takes a bit of the ball.

It was not a ball, but a

yellow apple that I had given him.

Now, Bates is remembered as a man who does not

can see the difference between a ball and an apple.

There was stuff in those days.

That stuff happens all the time.

I think the turkey is done now.

Hello.

Look at you. New dress.

-Look at me. I am similar to a boom.

-You is / i a boom.

Do you know why people

a call for a boom?

They will have it better when they say it.

The truth no injuries.

It should be a god

that takes care of bomser.

But they did not.
