About Me

I was born in Evergreen Illinois in 1955. A bundle of joy to my parents with a few missing parts. Namely both legs from the hip, left arm from the shoulder and one finger. I do have little cute feet with 4 toes on the right and 2 toes on the left. Attended grade school and junior high in Illinois did high school in Virginia. College educated for psychological testing but after a few years working realized I could not stomach "the system". Ran my own computer repair service where my clients were mainly elderly and on fixed income. Got paid a lot of times with cakes, pies, bread and chickens. Have a wife of 26 years met skiing and got married 3 weeks later. Back than I wasn't using artificial limbs or a wheelchair. My pick up line was about a certain anatomical part dragging on the floor! Worked well :) Have no fear, there was no damage had 3 healthy kids. 2 boys and a girl. Now poor and retired but have no regrets. Would I have changed anything? Not at all! I now spend my free time with my Autistic grandson and our ADD dog, when I'm not chasing my wife around the house. Some things never change :)
