Quote for the Day:

However, Donald did get caught by his parents. They saw he was underperforming in school and insolent toward teachers who gave him low marks. He also was a bully, but that probably did not bother his father at all. Then in 1959 they discovered a cache of switchblade knives stashed away in Donald’s room. Their thirteen-year-old son was buying them during secret Saturday-morning excursions into Manhattan with a friend. Fred and Mary considered Manhattan far too dangerous for Donald, and indeed it would have many attractions for a thirteen-year-old boy. But we should notice that his parents did not find “girlie magazines” under his mattress, but switchblade knives.
