So I still have all my astronomy books from when I was a kid.
I used to get a small allowance, put money aside.
I would help my grandparents at the market.
My father's parents were at the fruit market.
I would help them get money, put it aside and buy astronomy books.
And my mom was always like, you're spending all your money on books about space.
She was really like, why don't you go out and play?
I was a real geek.
So anyway, obviously I got really educated on astronomy because I'm reading them.
But there was never anything about Flying Saucers.
At the end of the books, there was always a few pages, potentiality of life in the universe.
And I'm like, okay.
But this is not giving me anything.
And eventually, we went to Plattsburgh, New York.
And that's just about 45 minutes from Montreal Drive.
My mom and my grandmother would go there shopping all the time because the stores in America were much better than the stores in Montreal at that time.
Even a small place like Plattsburgh had way better stuff than Montreal.
Really?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was so much stuff, so much cool stuff.
