I was born in the swamp, managed to crawl ashore, developed limbs, and learned how to open a can of beer.
I did live near another swamp back in '48.

My brother had inlaws in Rhode Island. He moved there and had me come up to start a business. Once the business started, he stayed and kept it. I moved back.
