00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.250 align:middle line:90%


00:00:02.250 --> 00:00:04.920 align:middle line:84%
I'm a terribly
sentimental family man.

00:00:04.920 --> 00:00:08.355 align:middle line:90%


00:00:08.355 --> 00:00:10.230 align:middle line:84%
Part of the numerical
reasoning for this book

00:00:10.230 --> 00:00:12.647 align:middle line:84%
is that I wanted to write a
book for my youngest daughter.

00:00:12.647 --> 00:00:14.880 align:middle line:84%
And I began it when she
was seven years old.

00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:17.700 align:middle line:84%
And I wanted to take a
certain amount of time

00:00:17.700 --> 00:00:20.340 align:middle line:84%
with it, which forms the
other numerical things.

00:00:20.340 --> 00:00:24.390 align:middle line:84%
And I wanted to
include in it all kinds

00:00:24.390 --> 00:00:28.920 align:middle line:90%
of references that would mean--

00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:30.690 align:middle line:84%
to things that happened
during her life.

00:00:30.690 --> 00:00:35.790 align:middle line:84%
So although that plan
totally went awry,

00:00:35.790 --> 00:00:37.350 align:middle line:84%
because in the
middle of writing,

00:00:37.350 --> 00:00:43.380 align:middle line:90%
it was when 9/11 happened.

00:00:43.380 --> 00:00:46.530 align:middle line:84%
I mean, that disrupts
everything, of course,

00:00:46.530 --> 00:00:48.960 align:middle line:84%
but part of this is-- and I'll
read part of that section.

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:54.150 align:middle line:84%
But first, I'll read a
famous story around our house

00:00:54.150 --> 00:01:01.620 align:middle line:84%
when I fell down the
stairway while holding

00:01:01.620 --> 00:01:04.319 align:middle line:90%
my one-year-old daughter.

00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.050 align:middle line:90%


00:01:07.050 --> 00:01:09.450 align:middle line:84%
It broke my tailbone,
but made sure she did not

00:01:09.450 --> 00:01:10.950 align:middle line:90%
get any ounce of harm.

00:01:10.950 --> 00:01:12.340 align:middle line:90%
[CHUCKLES]

00:01:12.340 --> 00:01:15.060 align:middle line:90%
So, 10, seven steps again.

00:01:15.060 --> 00:01:18.120 align:middle line:84%
Coccyx knows particular
rise and fall

00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:21.240 align:middle line:84%
when sock feet fly
out from under legs.

00:01:21.240 --> 00:01:25.470 align:middle line:84%
Hips, torso, head, small
child intact as down

00:01:25.470 --> 00:01:27.730 align:middle line:90%
bump seven all in a row.

00:01:27.730 --> 00:01:31.430 align:middle line:90%
Please save precious cargo.

00:01:31.430 --> 00:01:33.163 align:middle line:90%
