Probably, had World War II not come along and intervened, I would have tried to be a doctor. My son's a doctor, and I still take some medical journals to this day.
There is still no cure for the common birthday.
If you go to the Air and Space Museum in Washington, you can see the burn patterns on Friendship 7.
