#1 The first time you find a woman's vibrator is never forgotten. I learned this lesson when I was thirteen and rummaging around my friend Danny's tree house-like cottage with my brother Chad. We found a white, missile-shaped device that began to buzz and vibrate. We knew nothing about it, but we knew we didn't want to investigate any further.

#2 I was a misfit teen in Malibu, and I knew I had to fit in with the popular kids to avoid being bullied. I got a small wooden pot pipe, and pretended to be cool by never using it.

#3 The president of the United States and many other people have crystals that provide them with comfort and power. I know someone who is a genius, but he has no staff or office, just a cubbyhole office up a flight of stairs.

#4 The San Fernando Valley produced its own landlocked answer to Malibu's would-be stars. At the beach, the hot band was the Surf Punks. In the Valley, the Runaways were trailblazing the path for all-girl bands to come.
