Brian Mijo:  

Life I was born a poor black child in Oakland, California and grew up in the Bay Area (Marin Co.). I moved to No. Virginia and attended Lake Braddock in Burke, Virgina and then spent a couple years pretending to be a college student to further enhance my tolerance to alcohol. After several "Black Out" scenarios I figured it would be best if I grew up and started a family. So I did but I only got that half right, started the family...never grew up. So, thats where divorce #1 comes in to the picture. Since I screwed that up I figured I had better grow up and get it right this time now that I have a son, Calvin born October 31st, 1991...that was right around our 1st conflict with Iraq. Crazy times...anyway...I moved to Vegas and worked as a manager with Household Credit Services and only played on The Strip once in a short while. I loved to gamble but hated to lose so it was not a good fit. So I moved to New England in a sleepy little town on the coast of New Hampshire called Portsmouth. I was then working with Prudential selling any financial vehicle known to man and the money started to roll in, work hard, more money, more money more fun, more fun...thats when I thought it was time to line up the 2nd future ex-Mrs. Mijo so I moved back to Vegas and tied the knot...again. I was tieing more knots than a Boy Scout at this point. Lets see if my "knotting skills improve this time around...two awesome kids...Cheyanne born March 16, 1998 and later, Austin - born November 16, 2000...thats where divorce #2 comes in to play. Better go back and work on thoe knotting skills again...So...2 succesful divorces now under my belt, I start thinking again...perhaps it's time to grow up(sound familiar?) so I get a better job, and then a better one after that...and so on and son on...and now I have a really sweet gig making some serious bank, so with this I venture off to buy a new home, new car, new job and yes, you guessed it...I new wife.(didn't actually buy the wife) My wife Amy rocks, she is the stability in my life that I have needed to keep me on track and although we frequently joke that she is the future Ex-Mrs. Mijo, I don't ever see that light at the end of this tunnel ever turning in to a freight train like the other. Choo-Choo!!! So life is good....sweet, in fact. I'm still a geek who listens to some crazy music from back in the days of High School and college but since Jerry died I no longer see The Dead. I rarely go to see any Heavy Metal venues any more although I just saw Social Distortion at The Hard Rock here in Vegas and those old farts still sound just as...Expand for more
