Here are a couple of pictures to demonstrate my "street cred" (rocket cred?).

I was crazy enough about rockets for my parents to get me this spiffy rocket birthday cake for my fourth birthday (1971). I think it must have come from the Sentry store, because I remember wanting to go past the bakery every time Mom shopped there, just to see if they had any more of those cakes ...

And here's one with my godparents, my Grandma K. and Uncle Willie.
