Who Was That Masked Kid?: Book 1, (Hardcover)

<p>The story of the Masked Kid is my story at an early age when my parents "pulled up stakes" and moved to Colorado.</p><p>My mother told me that Dad quit his job in middle management in Michigan and took us to a vacant lot in the Big Thompson Canyon. There he single-handedly built a house using skills he couldn't possibly have acquired in a suburban environment. I was three and a half years old when we arrived on that vacant lot.</p><p>She said my life would have been entirely different and I would have been a different person if he had not done that. I believe her. </p><p>My dad was a phenomenal man. He had been raised on a farm, the middle son of a family of nine, in the days where people had a lot of kids for two reasons: one was because there was no birth control and the second because they needed free labor.</p><p>He was used for the latter, and through it learned to build or make everything he needed and wanted. Hence, he had the "know-how" to build a house (his first) in the Rocky Mountains at 8000 feet while we shivered in a temporary "tarpaper shack".</p><p>With only four other kids in the vicinity, I spent a lot of time alone with my imagination, fueled by Old Time Radio and comic books.</p><p>This is the story of the clash between imagination, illusory self-deception, and reality.</p><p>And how reality won out.</p>
