i just want to take a moment and give a shout-out to a guy named eddie i knew in elementary school. i think his name was eddie, but i don't totally remember. he moved out of town sometime after fourth grade, or maybe even before then.
i do remember a birthday party at his house that involved games of skill. one of those games involved dropping clothespins from nose level into a target. the prize? some sort of james bond edition matchbox car with - get this - an ejection seat!
now that i put some more thought into it, it may have been a party my parents threw for one of my birthdays. but it was held indoors, and my birthday is a summertime event. it wouldn't have been indoors. anyway, here's a shoutout to eddie, even though it was his birthday and i won the ejection seat james bond matchbox car.
