Heidi Phillips:
What do you do at work Dad?

Stanley Philipps:
I sell sh*t.

John Phillips:
It's important that people have their own views based on an understanding of facts. But, it's also important not to trust the facts, because most of them are lies.

Heidi Phillips:
I don't get it.

John Phillips:
It basically comes down to a gut thing. You just have to be open to allowing for a truth which differs from your own opinions. Or else you'll never actually see the truth at all.

Grace Phillips:
[on outgoing message] Hi. You've reached Grace, Stanley, Heidi, and Dawn. We're not home right how, but if you leave a message, we'll get back to you as soon as possible. [beep]

Grace Phillips:
[leaving a message] Hi everyone, it's mom! I just wanted to call and tell you how much I'm thinking of you. Stan, I guess you're at work now. Have you had a chance to go to that group thing yet? I think its a great idea. God, it's hot here. I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to call again. It might be a few days. I just wanted to tell you that I love you. And I miss you. Write me... [beep]

Stanley Philipps:
So what have you been up to, John?

I'm studying to take the GRE.

Good. You're going back to school?

John Phillips:
I'm thinking about it, yeah.

Stanley Philipps:
That's great. What for?

John Phillips:
Law. Or medicine. I haven't decided yet.

John Phillips:
You're bigger than the last time I saw you. How old are you now?

Heidi Phillips:
Dawn's 8. I'm 12 1/2.

John Phillips:
Wow.

Dawn Phillips:
How old are you?

John Phillips:
32. Bet that sounds pretty old to you, doesn't it?

Heidi Phillips:
Do you have a job?

John Phillips:
Why, are you hiring?

Dawn Phillips:
[gasp] Oh, it's right there! It's right there! Oh, my gosh, Dad! Step on it, old man!
