"Good morning, Mr. Ben. 
It's about 6:30 
Winston-Salem, North Carolina. 

Um, just laying here in the bed, 
Half awake, half asleep, 
Thinking about you. 

I was 
Wondering if you were looking after your 
Most valuable 
Possession
Your mind. 

I was thinking about 
John Glenn, 
His space journey and all. 

They said that 
When you're in space you lose 
Muscle mass 
And the body 
Mass 
And I wondered if there was any 
End to it. 

Or whether, 
If you didn't exercise in space, 
How long it would be before you were just 
A head, or a mind,
And have no body or arms. 
You'd have them but you couldn't use them. 

I was wondering if 
If your body mass would drop to a certain level, 
And then it would stop right there. 
And keep whatever you needed to 
Use your mind 
Because it would still be working." 

(30 seconds remaining) 

"Anyway, I was just pondering that. 
What do you think about, that? 

I hope everything is going alright. 
I may well wake up here in a little while 
And forget what I was thinking about."
