Oniel's Story

Life As of June 2007, still single but date quite a few women most of them in their twenties and I really can't explain why. Only know one gal in her 40's but the majority are 32 and under. I'm getting ready to travel around the US this summer a lot. I'll only be in town 2 of the next 8 weekends as I sponsor three kids who march in a drum and bugle corps. I house them for three weeks in my home, feed them and get them out of jams every now and then such as a recent car accident. They are all 21 and am really close with all of them even though they all live and go to college in different parts of Texas. I'm going to watch them perform in Omaha, Des Moines, Allentown and Hershey PA, Dallas, San Antonio, Ogden, Denver and Pasadena. I donated a lot of money to their fees and expenses and has been the best gesture I have provided to anybody in a long time and has give me a lot of satisfaction. I'm getting to the point where money isn't that important to me anymore. My happiness is worth any cost. I have also lost 40 lbs and three pants sizes since October 2006 and am feeling great. It was pretty easy though. I limited myself to 1500 calories a day and no more than 8G of fat per meal. and I hike/jog 90 minutes a day no matter the weather. I'm on track to retire from my government job at 55 and I should have my house paid off a couple of before that. Don't care to work 40+ hours a week anymore. I'm sure I'll still work but on my terms maybe 25-30 hours a week. I refuse to watch TV during the summer with the exception of a golf tournament or Law and Order every now and then. It's just too nice outside now in the summer to sit in front of the boob tube every night. You can catch me golfing twice a week in the evenings and hanging with the gals you see in my photos. I just went on my 50th trip to Las Vegas. I know that town way too well and I only play the bets odds games possible there. Craps. That's pretty much it and a few football games, but a lot of drinking,...Expand for more
socializing and partying at either Hard Rock Hotel, Mandalay Bay, The Palms, Paris or Monte Carlo. You know you go there a lot when the dealers know you by name and where you're from. But I'm doing a lot more of going to NYC, Miami, Hawaii, Arizona and Texas where I have a lot of friends. I could see myself moving to Texas someday. I have a lot of golf and drum corps friends down there in Dallas, Lubbock, San Antonio, Austin, Houston among others. I think I have lived too long in Denver and it's boring me a little and the way Aurora has changed has been disappointing to say the least. I remember the good old days when Colfax was a cool place to hang ouy on whether it was the East 70 drive in, the Putt Putt and A&W on Lima or the Fox theatre. Hardly play the sax anymore as most people from school remember that the most about me. But I do play the drums and keyboards on occasion. My greatest times were after high school marching in two different drum and bugle corps, one from California and the other from Wisconsin. I have met so many life long friends thru this activity and this is why I am still involved by volunteering and donating time and money to a great group of musicians. Most folks think of it as band, but the intensity and sound and professionalism has no comparison. I have made parts of every reunion we've had and really enjoy them. Funny how the physical part of a lot of us have changed but the mannerisms really don't at all. I'd sure like to hear from some very dear friends I have never heard a peep about in 20 some years. So if you have any info on the following classmates, I'd love to hear from you. Mark Norberg, Debbie Humphries, Lynette Newbold, Kevin Darrah, Carolyn Salo, Carol Reynolds, Lisa Valish, Dan Rice, Lori Rice, where are you all at? Oh yeah, am I trying to get married? Maybe a little more anxious now than in the past, but they better be active and love to travel and handle all my friends which tend to be mostly female. Just Friends.
