Jimi Hendrix : I was eighteen. I didn't have a cent in my pocket. I spent seven days in the cooler for taking a ride in a stolen car. But I never knew it was stolen.

Because I didn't have a cent in my pocket, I walked into the first recruitment office I saw and went into the army. I figured I'd have to go sooner or later, so I volunteered to get it over with. When I joined, I figured I might as well go all the way, so I signed with the Airborne.
