#5

My stepdad, Howie, was a doctor during the Vietnam War. He had post-traumatic stress syndrome, and would have flashbacks of battles and wake us up in middle of the night to go out and look for the enemy. We would play along.

#6

I had a bike and a couch sent to me by my real dad, Sam Spade, after my parents got a divorce. Howard, my stepdad, had used his hospital connections to make a fake ID to pose as my dad. He started sending me the things Sam never provided for me when I was younger.

#7

My mother got so pissed at Sam that she finally talked a lawyer friend into helping her get some money out of him. My dad hadn’t paid a cent of child support or alimony in years. The judge said, Is it true you never paid this woman a dime in all these years since leaving her. and Sam replied, Well, it’s tricky, Judge, you know how it is with the dune buggy payments and the brunches.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

I was a mama’s boy, and I never learned the things that dads teach their sons. My mom loved to give us presents, but there wasn’t a man around to tell her that her gifts weren’t appropriate for me.
