Girl: "What took you so long to come here?"
Howard: "I didn't know it was passing..."

We never notice but time is always passing and we are just pushing away things that are of most importance to us. Before we realize we are gone, long gone.

Earl:
"Where is Howard? Who is Howard? We wanna know, we wanna know. Where is Howard? Who is Howard? Where did he go, where did he go? He's down in the ditches. He's down in the ground. Disappeared himself. He's no-where to be found! Where is Howard? Who is Howard? He's long gone, he's long gone. "
