A childhood belief about tv

When I was five years old and younger, I thought that the people on TV were related to me. I had a difficult time at that age telling dreams and TV from reality. I thought Ricky Ricardo, Danny Thomas, Andy Griffith, and Tennesee Ernie Ford were my uncles. I still have clear memories of them visiting at my house, although that never happened. I wondered why Fred Flintstone never came around. I wondered why Jack Parr always made me sleepy. I thought he was magic or something, but now I realize he was on late at night when I was sleepy.
