How Steve Buscemi Became My Father

In November of 1982 my mother ran away from a small Appalachian town to the big city (New York.) Once there she wandered her way to Brooklyn where she spent the day collecting odd compliments and deathly diseases wrapped in foil. Out of boredom she began lighting sidewalk trash on fire. Engine Company #55 responded. The man that rescued her from the engulfing flames, that was Steve Buscemi. He took her back to the station where he fucked her and conceived a little baby girl (me.) The encounter inspired Steve to pursue greater things.
