Mitch is 11.

That's the next brother up.

Like I said, there was four of us.

So Mitch and I, we...

Eddie, uh, grabs, runs into the house.

Sorry, I don't mean to be confusing.

Mm.

Well, if it's okay, I'd like to start where at the beginning.

I came from or was part of a family which I refer to as the jet age family because back then that was the big thing were the jets.

You're talking late 60s, 67 in particular is where this starts.

Riverdale, Georgia.

we had just moved there into a neighborhood of 200 homes i'm saying this because back then you had the boomer children everywhere so there was i mean this place was packed full of people who were ready to party and have a good time yeah so With five brothers, I'm the youngest, the oldest you have Art, second was Randy, Eddie, Mitch, and I'm Jody, of course.

So we have mom and dad, who were both working class people.

But it was a completely different way to grow up.

Yes, and you're right that it was safe and much, much safer in general.
