Mentzer: why is Joe whispering in Louie's ear? He was only an infant in the crib when he developed this ear infection. We didn't know it at the time. When he was about three years old, we found out that he was hard of hearing. That's kinda why he never really took an interest in things other kids would take an interest in, like television. He was also late learning to speak and everything. He would become a lip reader. He was a real skinny kid, and he couldnt even make the football team because he's too skinny. Then he started to buy Muscle Magazine. He'd buy up all the old muscle books. He'd read them for hours. Every morning, I'd find his light on, and he's reading the muscle books.
