Photo of Dane Cook Recently, I was walking down the street and I see this couple. They're about eighty years old, okay. And they stop me on the street and they say 'Young man, will you please take a photo of my wife and myself?'. And I could just see that their connection that they had. It was unlike anything that I've ever seen before. And, honestly, it was something that I wanted in my life. And I said 'I would love to take your photo'. And I took the camera, Edward was the man's name. I got to know them a little. Edward and Phyllis. And I said 'Well listen Edward and Phyllis, I'm gonna take this photo. This is gonna be a great photo. And it was in celebration on this day, fifty five years that they had been together. Fifty five. So I said 'Hey, you two. You love birds. Get close'. And when I told them to get close, without any kind of obligation or feeling forced, Edward immediately put his arm around Phyllis and he pulled her in close. And she looked up at him like they were sixteen years old. She was glowing looking up at Edward. I said 'I'm gonna give you a countdown. Three, two, one and then I'm gonna take the picture, just so you can be ready'. So then I hit it, I said 'Three... Two...'. And before I hit one, Edward sneaked a kiss on her cheek. And you know what I said? 'Aww'. Three, two, one, he sneaked the kiss. And of course she lit up like the Fourth of July. It was wonderful. So Edward came over to get the camera and I was just inspired because I had never seen a love like that. I said 'Edward, come here for a moment. Here's your camera,' And I go 'You know, fifty five years. I can't make a relationship last fifty five minutes'. And I go 'What is the key? Can you give me a little gem? Can you give me a little hint?'. And I'll never forget, he leaned in and put his hand right here on my neck and pulled me in close. 'I'll tell ya son. You want to know the key?'. And he looked back at Phyllis, and he looked at me, and he goes: 'Cheat'.
