I
have done many things in my life, more than most I do believe. I have always
worked and always played hard except for the last 10 years. I have just worked
hard these last 10. Went to high end prep schools out east and college in
Boston and Michigan but never graduated. Worked in a Coney Island, worked
for Boeing on aircraft engine parts, a couple of years offshore, worked at Caesars
Palace in Vegas, owned a Mid-Century Store and for 30 plus years worked and
then owned a specialty manufacturing company with 30 plus people. There are
more things, but I just forget some on purpose I'm sure. I have been a young
Hippie type, heavy into drugs, been a punk in the late seventies into the
eighties, drank like a fish and been with more than my share of beautiful
women. Married twice and been in real love only 4 times. Broken bones in sport,
play and work including blowing out my knee, broke my shoulder blade and had broken
ribs playing lacrosse, broke my jaw mountain climbing, broke my foot and arm
off shore oil, broke my hand in manufacturing and broke my back on vacation in
West Virginia with the family. I hurt all over, but I have boundless energy and
am always doing something. I pick up anything, have moved countless yards of
dirt and rocks, put in beaches and sea walls and moved thousands of pounds of
boxes furniture and clothing for my Mid-Century store, flea markets and my
wife's vintage clothing store. I hurt all over, but mostly in my heart.
