Part 1

It was the summer of #1963, when everybody called me Baby & it didn't occur to me to mind.

Oh wait.That wasn't me.

I wasn't even born until #1965.

And then it was mostly pretty good til #1979 when I found #booze. & then it was still pretty rockin for a while until it wasn't. Taking 10 years to get that 4 year #UMCP #EnglishDegree shoulda been a telltale, but, alas, #alcoholism.

Finally, in July #2002, I said the words:

My name is David, and...well, you know the rest.
