Podcast Ep 193 - How much can your childhood really impact current behavior?
I probably should have been killed in the accident we had in the Volkswagon Rabbit, but I lived to tell the tale. Then there was the episode in 2nd grade that was less than ideal. Not to mention that time I slept in a motel closet with roaches. I guess all of these things build character!
