Guy's Story

Life 11/09/06 You name it, I probably did it. Carpenter, Surveyor, Landscaper, Baker, donut maker, prep cook, truck driver, etc. Still a crazy "guy" who likes to have fun. I was an idiot with the plastic horn at the Avalanche hockey games for 5 years with my season tickets. Still play softball 3 times a week and sport my "rally dome" (bald). Never had a son so there won't be any Cliffy the IV. Can't teach him to throw water balloons at the neighbors, bummer! Own a duplex in Westminster, with me on one side, and Mom on the other. Nephew Rick lives with me and sis Gayle lives with Mom. Mom moved out of house in '92 when Dad died of Parkinsons. Gayle just recently sold it and moved in with Mom. We had that house in the family for 40 plus years. D'Ann still lives in N. Denver. Trish lives in Indiana. Drove trucks for almost 15 years. Did all combinations including triples and all weights, up to 110,000 pounds. Company folded so I foolishly allowed my anger to let my CDL to expire while I did college work, my mid-life crisis. (Got an associates degree, whoopee! lol) Working at IBM as a "tape ape" supervisor(OAO Technologies). Working with stand-alone tape drives from the '80 like you see in the old NASA films. Not a great job but ride to work with yet another nephew, Mike. Am teaching my foosball style to the kids I work with daily. hee hee (finally sold my table in '95 in a yard sale) Have 2 dogs that I spoil constantly. They keep me busy but I "hope that it's hard!" (Joe Walsh, "ordinary average guy") They're big dogs, had a Malamute and a Mexican Wolf b4 these two. Shepard b4 the Malamute, etc. Still drink beer and smoke so am an outcast on the porch at parties and work. As Roger Miller sang, "We're all gonna die." lol I can boast that I still weigh the same as when I was in high school and can wear some of the clothes from then and shock people. Some of the printed t-shirts I have from then are now considered not p/c. My blood pressur...Expand for more
e is good. 10/16/07 Fractured my collar bone playing softball last spring, so much for this summer season! Got a promotion at work. Am no longer "Lead Tape Operator." Am now "Weekend Tape Librarian." Will work Friday and Monday, 8 hrs., and Saturday & Sunday, 12 hours. 3 days off!! wheeee!!! Will be responsible for myself and not a crew of 9 people anymore, no more babysitting, hee hee!! Have made about 100 great, true friends in Brazil IBM operations and am going to visit them in March 2008. Campinas is the city I will travel to in San Paulo State. (go enter the city name on youtube) I am silly at work on ST and they call me Mr. wheee-man. Have made many plans with all them, am even going to see the "Statue of Christ" in Rio w/ Catholic friends. There is an Amusement Park there too with 3 steel and one wooden coaster!! (Hopi Hari). Gonna stop smoking b4 I go. Their culture frowns on smokers, not like here in US where the laws govern my stupid habit, but kinda like non-smokers acted here in the US in the 70's. It's tolerated, but some groups avoid the "smoker." 75% of my friends there don't smoke. That what I really like about these people, they have the 70's mentality still. They actually care how your day is going and talk mostly about their families. Monetary worth doesn't matter to them, it's whats in yer heart that matters to them. One of the girls had wrist surgery a few months back, they put a pin into her bone. She was feeling pain when the temperature dropped so I asked her if she had mittens. She had a lightweight pair but they didn't afford her any relief. I got my Mom involved. My Mother had two sets of mittens already knitted up and gave me a pair to send my friend. Call me hopeless romantic but I connect with these people and maybe might just get my dreams of a "Cliff IV" before I die. I am not hot to trot and will consider each and every person there as just a friend. Maybe, someone special will come into my life when I visit.
