Read any good books lately? I actually just read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and really enjoyed it.Do you eat your vegetables? Blanched, yes. This is a recent development. Have you ever met a famous person?Sure. I tutor their kids on occasion. But their identities are Top Secret. Favorite childhood book?A Child’s Christmas in Wales, Dylan ThomasWhat was your first job?I worked at a cashier at the neighborhood independently owned drugstore. This would have been fine except I had a habit of reading everything they had for sale. Turns out keeping my nose in the books meant a lot of folks got a five finger discount!
