Michael's Story

Life What a blast to see all these familiar names and faces after all these years. I hope some of you will write weather we used to hang togeather or just knew the face. After graduation I didn't know what I wanted to be for Holloween,......... Let alone the rest of my life, so I went into the Army.....Wooooops!.......straight to Viet-Nam!@#$%. 1969 was a banner year to "see the world". I got to go to Hawiia, (2hrs), I got to go to Japan (3hrs), I got to go to South-East Asia, (14, count-em months!) I flew CH-47 helicopters as a crew member. Came back with most of my hide. Lost my girl, my ol'60 Chevy Imp. couldn't or wouldn't start.....ever again. Oh well, I sure could grow a great mustasche now!!!!sooooo........... I went to school and got a "two year" in Finance and Insurance Law, then went to work for Trans America Corp. I lasted for about two years....Boring.....( viet-nam was startin' to look pretty good) anyway, during my working I joined the Sheriffs Reserve and liked it so well that I went into Law Enforcement full time. I moved to CoeurdA'lene Idaho in the late 70's and went to work for the city police department in Post Falls Id. After about 5yrs I went back to school'in for mechcanical engineering while still working full time. I was able to transfer over to the Publ...Expand for more
ic Works Depart. and 9yrs later I found myself to be a city superintentdant. woopie!!! I finished out that gig a few years back, and now I goof around as a freelance consultant for an architectural engineering company..but mostly I like to work in my shop building street rods and things that really have no purpose, don't do anything, and rarely even like,....work!!? I am single for 10yrs now. I do have two great kids, a boy and a girl. They are in their 30s , and doing well. They have given me four total awesome grandkids, except their mothers,....somehow seem to think I am a bad influence on them, ( I think it may have had something to do with that accidentally ricochetted BB, shootin' the car thing) or maybe it was that................never mind.....oh well, we have fun. For those of you that knew me when....I still play drums ( me and Pete Wagoner used to drive people crazy in the music room) and I even took up guitar about 15yrs ago (blues and hard rock) music has always been a big big part of my life. Well that it, folks.......again hope you guys and girls will drop me a line and share how things went for you . I have had a great life so far, and God has never given me a load I could not bare.......althought sometimes I thought he might want to break my back just for GP!!
