Francis's Story
I attended Stamford High for one year, 1961 - 1962 as a sophomore (click on "then", see the photo at the bottom of the three, standing next to the car). I went to New York Military Academy (top right photo 1964) prep school after that. Hey, we're not getting old. You're not old until you have to shave your earlobes. OK, I admit it. I shave mine twice a week. :) Prior to Stamford high, I was at Cloonan Jr. High ("then" photo top left 1960), Steven Schl, Ryle Schl. After high school I taught marching percussion in drum & bugle corps in Stamford, New London and other towns in CT. Remember Walter Evans? He and I drummed together a few years. In 1966, we won a national championship drum quartet contest doing a solo using the 7/4 time signature from Dave Brubeck's "Unsquare Dance." I dropped out of college full time, went part time at Norwalk Community College. Later, moved to California; went to UC San Diego 2 yrs, then got a BA in economics from UC Berkeley (1981).

ow, my age and IQ are the same #. :)
I moved from San Mateo, CA (20 miles south of San Francisco) to Alameda across the bay. Good bye Sam Ateo, hello Al La Meda. I worked for a company that recycles electronic equipment. Now I am teaching on camera acting classes to children. Occasionally do volunteer work. Several years ago, I was a volunteer phone counselor for the San Mateo County Crisis Line assisting people and intervening for suicidal callers. Saved 5 lives in 20 months.
I have done some acting in community theatre, local TV commercials and corporate training films; also do voice over work (radio commercials and training films). For fun on weekends, I perform in murder mystery dinner theatre doing impersonations, characters and foreign accents. It's my playground.
One of the advantages of getting old is that in a hostage situation, we'll be released first.
Been meditating consistently since 1975.
Recently took up water polo, but had to quit after my first game. My horse drowned.
