My beginnings

The Pennsylvania Institute

I was born on February 28, 1938,

while Hitler was invading Poland

and my father was a private patient

at Philadelphia's Pennsylvania Institute, 

which was created in 1751 for

"lunaticks or Persons distemper'd in Mind".

Trivia

 I lost my virginity* in the front seat of a

1950 Bullet Nose Studebaker Champion

So I doubled my daily dose of Paxil.

Hi-Ho!
