He's gonna be chasing after someone.

My mom often teased me about the time l transferred to a new school in the middle of 4th grade and cried because the new school hours went until after Speed Racer was on so I wouldn't get to see it any more.

I showed her though. I skipped many days of school and stayed home to watch it. No idea how I got away with that big I figure with my folks both working and in the process of divorcing I was lower on the priority list. Score! Lol.

Not too long ago my daughter and I went to Comic-Con and she bought me a Mach 5 key chain. One of the best things she ever gave me.
