Sometimes, for a little shock value, I like to tell people I grew up in the back of a liquor store. And I did -- sort of. When I was born we lived down the block from the liquor store my grandfather and uncle owned in Brooklyn, and I spent a lot of time in the stock room building castles out of liquor boxes and packing materials. We moved from Brooklyn when my dad and his father opened a men's clothing store in Queens.
