Hi All,
When I was a child, a local radio station would play an hour of “old time radio” programs, just before my bed time. These were radio shows from the 1930s to the 1950s. Even at a very young age I enjoyed this theatre of sound and imagination. From comedy shows like Jack Benny and Burns & Allen, to mystery tales, and adventure stories like the Lone Ranger, The Shadow, and The Green Hornet. These mystery men were the super heroes I knew long before I was given my first comic book.
Hi All,
Apologies for the delay, I had some trouble with recording the latest episode, and also had to go back and make edits on the first two. They’re all up now.
Hi All, and Welcome back.
Several years ago, I received an odd phone call from someone who claimed be from my childhood and wanted to meet at a local restaurant. I did not recognize the name, but agreed to meet.
It turned out the person was going through Alcoholics Anonymous. Step number eight in AA’s Twelve step program, is to reach out to people they had harmed and be willing to make amends. This person turned out to be one of the many school bullies who had made my childhood a living hell.
However, after all the years that had gone by I had absolutely no memory of who the person was that was sitting across the table from me. Oh, I remember most of the bullying from elementary school, Junior High, and High School; but I just couldn’t place who this guy was. I had moved on to face other bullies in my life.
What does this have to do with my struggles to read? A whole lot more than you’d think.
