It's more of it in reverse. How could you miss all of this? I know this is the wrong can of beans to open up this late in our conversation, but I think the moments I have with my son, a lot of them are moments that my father missed with me. So it's like, damn, man, how did you miss this? You missed this? You didn't show up to the Boy Scout joint? You didn't show up to the chess tournament, David?
