Mermaids.

It's a little known fact that my mom named me after the mermaid in Splash played by Daryl Hannah. After coming out of the water and growing legs she looks up at a street sign on Madison Ave in NY and decides "Madison" should be her name. I collect pictures of Madison Ave street signs. I was James Madison in my third grade's President's play. My mom has a thing for mermaids. My little sister's name is Ariel. True story: When I get in the water, my legs meld into one scaly, orange fin. Oh and the drawing is a Madison Grinnell original.
