B. Do you wish this came sooner?
A. Don't know. You should ask all the former child stars (and the dead idols if you could) and see if they'd trade places with me. I am here, NOW, and they are not. You want to compare me to others who have been extremely successful for decades? Don't waste your time. Tom Cruise is an old geezer. And only the most desperate gold-digger want to fuck his wrinkly ass now. The past? You want young Tom, go watch a movie from fifty years ago. I am here. Now. My past is irrelevant. As is my future. Which of us will matter tomorrow? Don't know. The only thing certain is it'll be someone who doesn't die tonight.
