On the day you were born, Jason, you nearly died.
I know, Dad. You’ve told me a million times.
Sure. But did I tell you the part where you and your mother fell 30 stories?
Yes, just as the truck full of pillows drove by.
Right. Well, what about the earthquake?
Yeah, that too. I get it. I was super lucky to survive.
I’m sorry. Anyway, I wanted you to have this for your graduation. It’s the grenade that marine accidentally dropped into your baby basket. It was a dud.
Wow. I didn’t know that part of the story. Thanks, Dad.
