So what significance does bowling have for you . Tick bowling, it gives me something to do, it really does give me something to take my mind off the 9 11, even though mike your desk was just inches away from where the plane hit the pentagon and you had just stepped away. What took you away from your league and what had happened is instead of going the front way, if i woulda gone the front way i woulda been right in the path of the plane, but going in the back way, that saved me one way. If i woulda stayed in that there, all 4 of them perished. Between my office and the office next to us, and the office next to us, i think it was 37 people that died. Mike its wonderful that youre with us here today and its a tragedy that none of them could wellr mike you worked in the pentagon for almost 30 years . Tick 29 years and 3 months. Mike so 29 years and 3 months in the pentagon, youre a 9 11 survivor, you experienced that, surely you must have some sense of national security. Looking at the president ial candidates this year, who do you think is more likely to keep us safer, who do you trust . Tick thats hard to ask right now, i do not havent seen the good side of neither one of them. The thing that really bothers me most is you got children, protect the children here. Both hillary and donald, all this fussing and arguing, i dont think thats a good example for children. Mike so what then would you ask them, if they came to your Bowling League right here, Hillary Clinton said im a senior citizen, im a woman, i can join this ladies league, sat down right next to you, what would you Ask Donald Trump if he came here .
