  • O ho ho ho! Hmm.

  • I got a granddaughter who likes dressing up too. Cute as a button!

  • She loves Peter Pan.

  • She's always asking this old timer to read it to her.

  • She's sharp as a tack.

  • Full of ideas. Questions about the lost boys and those pirates.

  • Probably 'because...

  • Because they never grow old.

  • She says to me: "Grandpa' are you old?"

  • [Laughing, wheezing]

  • Yes sweetheart, I'm old, and one day you are going to be as old as me.

  • And this gets her...

  • ...her brains all cooking. And she says "Grandpa, are you gonna die?"

  • And I say: "Yes, sweetheart, of course, I'm gonna die one day"

  • ...but it's not going to be today"

  • And finally, she says to me:

  • "Grandpa' am I gonna die?"

  • How do you explain a question like that to a kid?

  • So when Halloween rolls around the next year, there she is: Proud as punch!

  • She stands up and she goes: "Grandpa! I'm gonna be a pirate!"

  • Don't you worry sweetheart,

  • I'll find you,

  • I promise.

Hmm
