I suddenly remembered the movie, The Glass Castle by J. Walls based on her memoir. Her parents were much like Zeke and J.J. Her mother was even a mediocre artist convinced she was a genius. The movie even used her actually paintings to show how mediocre she was. The memoir/movie is encouraging as there were four children and they formed a team and went on to success despite their parents.
On a side note: It was 50 years ago today that Mike met his new lab partner and future employer, Bernie. Bernie mentioned that many people thought him “crazy”. He then turned into a werewolf (chemical assistance) to demonstrate why some people held such beliefs.

I would think Zeke would be used to living in the shadows wearing that hat all the time.

I believe the quotation is, “Neurotics build castles in the air, psychotics live in them,” but it may just be the weed talking here.

I hear a lot of talk about spending money to do things but I am not hearing much about income. Fame, or infamy, does not mean fortune.

JJ has a very high opinion of her own value.

On a sunny day you can get sunburned laying in the shadow she throws.

They’re both so “in the shadow” that they’ll never see the light…

Even tougher trying to live off your shadow.

It’s tough living in the shadow of your self-deluded hot air!

Zeke has an Uncanny instinct for knowing just what sort of BS JJ needs to hear.

Don’t worry Zeke. She hasn’t got much of a shadow to cast.
