A baby that would up to be either a cop, or a fireman. And you know, some how it gets a bad rap, but really it's just like any other suburb. I mean, sure it looks like this

Danny Campbell : And for me, every single summer since I was old enough to remember looked like this, the Great Kill Swim Club. This is where I spent every waking hour of my summers.

And it's where I had the best job in the history of the world. I was a lifeguard.
