saw Naomi Watts.
R: Nicole Kidman looked pretty
hot at the Oscars.
TMD: OK, now for the more dif-
ficult questions.
R: OK.
TMD: You're in a desert, walking
along when you look down and see a
tortoise. It's crawling toward you. So
you reach down and flip the tortoise
over on its back. The tortoise lays on
its back, its belly baking in the hot
sun, beating its legs, trying to turn
itself over, but it can't. Not without
your help. But you're not helping.
Why is that?
R: I don't know.
TMD: You know what a turtle is?
R: Yeah.
TMD: Same thing.
R: OK.
TMD: Well, I think that just about
wraps up the random student inter-
view for this week.
R: Cool.
TMD: Thank you for your time
sir, have a nice day.
R: Thanks.
