Bob (Abe)'s Story
Bob (Abe) is from Staten Island, New York. Bob (Abe)'s schools include New Dorp High School.
I took a year off from school after HS to work on Wall St. with Bear Sterns and then Bruns Nordeman Rae & Co.
When Shearson Loeb Roades bought BNR, I took the severance package and headed up to Cortland to enroll.
I missed the deadline and hung out till January. I returned to Staten Island and enrolled at CSI spring 82.
After having trouble raising tuition in the summer of 85, I enlisted in the Army for the GI Bill.
I served 2 years with 3rd Armor Division, supporting the M1 Abrams and a year in Ft Lewis, Washington.
4 years later I returned to Staten Island and CSI, while serving in the reserves at Ft Wadsworth (fleck calling it Naval Station NY!)
I returned to ...Expand for more
active duty in 95, served 2 years with the 82nd Airborne Division at Ft Bragg and 3 years with the 501st Infantry Regiment (Airborne) at Ft Richardson Alaska.
I was married for 15 years and am once again off searching for my soulmate.
I've been a snow bird for almost 3 years now, roaming the southwest in the winter, and Colorado in the summer - because ever since seeing Colorado with the Boy Scouts, on our way to Philmont, NM in 1976, I've wanted to return and explore these mountains.
Now I'm LEGALLY high, in Colorado.
Last time I was legally high, (and technically I wasn't) was when I was on leave, returning from Germany, and pitstopped in Amsterdam - made a purchase at the Bull Dog Café, and lit up all through dinner, at the Hard Rock Café - AWESOME!
