Everything from my father punching me in the face, dealing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of drugs, organized crime, life support, flying airplanes high on cocaine, been on TV, did commercials for health and fitness companies, was sponsored by LifeTime Fitness, hung out Brahm Acradi (who founded LifeTime fitness), I've been in the same hotel that the movie Goodfellas was filmed in, my father built casinos all over the world. Pretty interesting stuff, it was all wrong. Somehow I survived to tell about it
No booze today.....just work on that for now, I think that's a fine decision.

The past can certainly shape us, and a lot of us have some pretty horrific backgrounds. There is help for those things, but you need to be sober first....just tackle that for today.
