How I Met Your Mother2005
Narrator:
When your Uncle Marshall was ten years old, he read a book called Life Among the Gorillas. It was written by an anthropologist named Dr. Aurelia Birnholz-Vazquez, it told the story of the year she spent living among the Western Lowland Gorillas of Cameroon. When Dr. Birnholz-Vazquez came to the local community college to give a lecture, Marshall, the youngest member of the audience, raised his hand with a question.
Young Marshall:
What advice do you have for a budding anthropologist?
Dr. Aurelia Birnholz-Vazquez:
So you want to be an anthropologist?
Young Marshall:
Yep. When I grow up, I want to go live with the gorillas, just like you did.
Narrator:
What she said next changed his life.
Dr. Aurelia Birnholz-Vazquez:
Oh, that's wonderful, but I'm afraid you can't. They'll all be dead by then.
