Jack Welch

Small, Strange, Put

Leslie Fiedler

End, Wrong, Last

When I was little, we had a Golden Book that had all these Disney characters in one portrait on the first page. My dad used to read from it every night. We'd play this game of find Pluto or find Donald Duck. He'd read us stories and do all the voices. Those are great memories.

Love, Time, Fool
