I couldn't eat anything without barfing it up. I was always scared growing up because I was so fragile. #2 I was born in Michigan. My parents had the idea of moving to Arizona, because my dad wanted to cheat on my mom in a different state. My mom had to go out and get two jobs. I never noticed I was poor, because I was a kid. #3 I was the shortest and poorest kid in my class, and I had the worst school supplies. I was constantly bullied because of it. #4 I had a way with the ladies because I was a nerd. I was also introduced to coin collecting, chess, and guns by my mom's new husband, Dr. Howard P. Hyde.
