  1. Going to the corner store with 30 cents, and getting five gumballs, two packs of baseball cards, a comic book, and getting change back.
  2. Flying. I remember looking down at the clouds over the Pacific on my second plane flight, age 5.
  3. Friday evenings Dad took the family over to Nick’s, where a kindly old Greek made me “two 'amburgers, no onion, 3 pickle, 4 pickle” and I had a cream soda from a cold glass bottle. And fries.
