dear duck,
I come from a different time, and place.
I grew up on military bases, and then in the NYC ‘tri-state area’, before my military enlistment, when my draft number was ‘3’. So that whole NY/CT/NJ yiddishke thing was not lost on me, both in high school and after school.

“A major void”........meaning his empty head
