been called back to Memphis to keep our end of that promise. But we did go back to Memphis to bury him.

We gave the overage to the Shelby County Drug Court.

Man, that's not really an easy answer, that. I've lived in 14 states. I lived in three states in first grade alone. I lived in three states again in ninth grade. So I was born not far from here, actually, in Nashville, my dad was stationed at Fort Campbell. He was, I think, a first lieutenant, first to 506 back then.

And I was a real high-risk pregnancy, so when mom went into labor, they rushed her down to Nashville. I was born here. But we left before I was even three months old. I think Virginia next. And then Fort Benning. My little brother was born there. And we lived, I think, in Phoenix City, Alabama, just across the Chattahoochee from Fort Benning. Or we may have lived in Columbus.

We're not not close. But, you know, Cody has an awful lot of very well-founded resentment towards me for everything I did over the years. demanding all of my parents' attention because I was such a pain in the ass. And I think I probably, in a lot of ways, crushed his hopes and dreams for his life. Now, he does a great job of hiding that resentment, but it's still there.
