Born in Cairo, then moved to Jacksonville, Fl in1946. Attended schools here, was a member of the Boxing Team, Wrestling Team, Young Men's Glee Club, Drama Club, and Automotive Apprenticeship Program. Joined the US Air Force while a Senior in HS on the deferred enlistment program in 1964. Volunteered for Viet Nam and was sent instead to Hahn Air Base in West Germany. Never made it to Nam. Some of my friends did though. Never saw many of them again. When I came back stateside in 1968 things were a lot different. Met my future wife at a bus stop in 1970. Married in 1971. Had our daughter in 1972 followed by our son. Divorced in 1990. Haven't remarried. Was a sworn officer with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office from 1973 for a period of eight years. Then joined the US Postal Service and was a mailman for five years, then a Computer Electronics Technician until retirement serving thirty years. Found Sugarloot in 2007 and subsequently Brickfish. So here I am. That's about it.
