" You know the ad for Sea-Monkeys in the back of the comic books? That's my family: the Szymunskis. Dad, Mom, my brother, Cousteau, and my sister, Nerissa. And the bump of my mother's belly, that's me: Joe Szymunski. We were all underwater births, and my bro and sis came out swimming, whereas I sank like a Pet Rock. My family needs to make contact with water at least once an hour or else they'll die. Not me. I'm the black shrimp in the family."
