Yeah, Timothy Leary, exactly. And I quickly found that wasn't true. And I tried, I smoked a lot, I did those things every day with the And I saved that for weekends.

And I would often look at it as a young boy and think, I wish I could have known Jesus. It's too bad He was merely a historical figure. And somehow I made a connection on my high school campus when there were these kids that were very outspoken for their faith, that were talking about Jesus.
