Chuck's Story
I am a moderate conservative that values principles over pipe dreams, personal relationships over casual acquaintences, honesty over white lies, loyalty over personal interests, family first, God above all material possessions or enterprises, other peoples good fortunes through hard work, George Bush over Barrack Obama, Newt Gingrich over Nancy Pelosi, The American Republic over the Socialist States of America, Peace over war, Charity rather than entitlements to deadbeats, memories of good times as well as the memories of tribulations and pain over no memories at all, Jesus Christ in my life and heart over the influence of man. This is what and who I am. The way I got to this point is another story. What I was able to retain from the education I persued is my treasure and I hold dear the times spent in pursuit of academia. Life experience has exposed the things I find deplorable in the traits of man. Too many to list.
I always wanted to be a lawyer when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a useless idea. As it turns out, they were wrong.

ob Farrington ( killed in Vietnam ), Ban Johnson coach Doug Wilson, Steve Mingori baseball player and coach for Cleveland, Kansas City and Toronto, John O'Connor baseball player and defense attorney, Attorney Dan Matula and baseball team mate, Fred Fugazzi Mo Valley team mate and poli sci tutor ( shot and killed in Staten Island by a drunk bar patron ),and Father Ruyser priest and moral tutor. My children have been both a joy and frustration over the years, Janel, my daughter, suffered renal failure at age 8 and transplants at age 13, 20 and 28. She is currently on the transplant list for her fourth kidney. That is resolve and spirit!! My son has over come social and legal problems and turned his life around with his music and pets. My wife, Sandy nee Ainsworth is a wonderful woman and a caring mother. She is clever, understanding, energetic, creative, and a plethera of other adjectives that basically define a great mate. I love my dogs, Molly and Missy, Schnausers that share a common sire born a week apart. We have a Russian blue cat named Pepe that rules the dogs. Life can be a real pain in the ass, however, without it there are no memories, friends, loved ones or assholes to round out experiences. Don't want to bore you anymore, thanks for reading.
