    At first, I thought this was the first sentence: “Isaac Fitzgerald has been a firefighter, worked on a boat, and been given a sword by a king, thereby accomplishing three out of five of his childhood goals by the age of 25.”

    Ha. Sorry about that Henry. The real opening sentence is way better than my bio.
