Tim Storey

A man ran a red light, not on purpose, ran a red light, hit my father in his car, and my father died instantly.

So my sixth grade teacher asked me to stay after class one day and I stayed after class and he says, hey, he called me Timmy, Timmy's story, Timmy.

So now we're really in trouble.

because you are so brilliant, which I never heard anybody call me that, because you are so brilliant, I want to know if you want to check out some books from my personal library.

But we had moved from a two-bedroom apartment to a three-bedroom little tiny house.

So we were stepping up.

But now the head of the family is taken out.

He said, this is not for extra credit, it's just to stir up your brilliance.

And my mother did not drive.

What sixth grade teacher tells somebody that?

Her first language is Spanish.

So he pulled out his briefcase.

She speaks very broken English even to this day.

There were briefcases back then, kids.

So, Holla, we were in trouble.

He pulls out a briefcase and in there is three books.

We were really like sitting in a setback at that time.

One of them is on the life of Michelangelo.

And I had heard of Michelangelo.

I'd seen a documentary on him and I took that book.
