During all of this I was becoming increasingly delusional...to the point where I had this idea that I was the next messiah and that I was going to save the world. One summer day I got this idea in my head that jumping on the trampoline was similar to "catching air" on a snowboard, so I decided to strap my snowboard on my feet and jump on the trampoline with my snowboard all the while yelling "I am going to save the world!"

Laughing my head off at that one! I'm remembering all sorts of stuff now. One day when I was a teenager I was out wandering around town and I went into a joke shop and bought a canister of fake blood and a can of spray-on cobwebs. I went home and sprayed the whole can over the walls, the ceiling, my furniture, books, everything I had and then repeated the process with the fake blood. It wasn't Halloween, I just had this idea that it would be cool for some reason. I spent maybe a couple of years having to scrape that stuff off everything I had. I still find lumps of it to this day, 30 years later.
