Michael's Story

When I left High School, I stayed in Janesville for four years, I went right to work in a small machine shop in Janesville, in 1980 I moved back to Milwaukee for good. I have had a pretty good life, and have held many different positions, from stock work and shipping receiving at Toy's R Us to a production worker for a fiber glass manufacture, to a production worker at The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, I was there for 10 years, and had to take a buy out. Right now I am self employed and trying to figure out how to make money with my computer, LOL, without going into porn LOL. I am a car nut, and a NASCAR FAN, for many years I hung out at biker bars, I have made friends with quit a few of them, they are great people, more loyal, and dependable in friendship then most people I have known. I have a 24 year old daughter I love very much, she hasn't been the terror I must have been to my mother, LOL. Since 1992 I lived in a hard part of Milwaukee, now I am in Waukesha, and like it very much. My family was close until 2003, and the passing of a family member has blown the family wide apart, and yes it was over money, what else, LOL. Most of my friends seem like family anyway so it's not a real big deal, although I do take friendship seriously more now then I used to. Well if you want to know anything else, ask, LOL. I always wanted to be a Brian Surgeon when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good idea idea. As it turns out, they were wrong, I have a visual handicap, lol. . I kick the neighbors cat when I can, LO...Expand for more
L. No I don't, I just think this is a stupid question. My hero, HMMMMM, I have to say Homer Simpson, LOL, I model my life after his, LOL. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Nancy Arrick, because She was my first love, and unfortunately, I do know what has happened to her, I will always miss her. . My best friend would tell you I'm very like able, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as a weirdo, LOL. . Yes to a point, I am still, and will always be a leather coat, blue jeans type man. I have a biker appearance, yet not a biker, I have also been told I have a intimidating appearance, yet I have been told I could make friends with a tree, LOL. Yep a Tree, LOL. In 10 years, I hope to be alive. I'm going to get there by not walking in front of cars, LOL. . My buddy Mike, and his brother Joel, they are Philippine, and they and there families treat me like I am part of there family, Mike has told me that the reason he likes me is because I am one of the most honest people he has met, I am unpretentious, and Mike and Joel are also out spoken people also, so that might be why we hit it off. My first job was at Beal Manufacturing, in Janesville, where I got paid very well to work assembly. What I remember most about it is My boss Gary, I will ever be grateful to him, I was a trouble maker in school, and was on the verge of getting kicked out, then Gary hired me in my junior year, and gave me the chance to work in the real world, it turned my life around, thank you Gary.
