I was thinking back about my childhood earlier and I find it amazing that I can trace certain character traits back to specfic incidents in my early life.
My obsession with all things requiring batteries is no doubt as a result of all the toys I used to get back from Japan (which also explains why I am such a Japanophile)
My fear of swimming is from having swallowed half the swimming pool while almost drowning in a pool at age 7 while the 50 people and the instructor looked on.
And, without doubt, my constant need to figure out how things work, take them apart and put them back togeather (using ALMOST all the parts) comes from this man. I gift you with a slice of my childhood. I am sure it will bring a smile to your face.
