Is this a dream
What could be more American
Wide shoulders
Easy riding

I read all my grandparents’ Reader’s Digests. Q: What’s the difference between a yard sale and garbage? A: distance to the curb
Tell me an 'on brand' memory of your childhood.

I dressed up as Abraham Lincoln for Halloween and recited the Gettysburg Address from memory to my *2nd grade class*

I did not have a ton of friends in school
Tell me an 'on brand' memory of your childhood.

I religiously bought and studied the Fall Preview episode of TV Guide, setting a goal to try and watch each show at least once.
