Bill's Story

Hello to everyone that stops by to read my short biography on here That I can't decide whether to call it Human target or Just shoot me..I attended W E Cherry 1st through 5th grades around 65-70 then moved to Orlando for a short time and then to Perry Fl in October of 71.Unfortunately not much over a year later my life was changed for the worse.I was staying with some friends and one of them decided to mess with a shotgun that happened to go off and I was hit in the head above my right ear with a full load of double ought buckshot.I was never supposed to survive and even if I did never awake from a coma but the fact that I'm here proves that that prognosis was wrong.I have slight paralysis on my left side and have no left peripheral vision in either eye but after learning to walk again everything else was just an inconvenience that I had to learn to live with.In the ninth grade I decided to quit school but after a couple of years I went to the 78 graduation ceremony and seeing my class graduate but not being able to join them made me decide to go back to high school and graduate.So I graduated in 1980 instead of 78 but ...Expand for more
I got the satisfaction of graduating and not just getting a GED.I look back on the 60's and 70's as the best years of my life and that is why I'm here to catch up on those good memories of those decades.I never found any one to settle down with and have no children but do have a cat so that is something I guess.In 82 I tried to enlist in the Army but knew that because of my injury I probably would not be accepted and ended up riding a bike to DC in protest that I was not allowed to serve my country.At fifty I'm still in good enough shape that I could give the military physical qualification a good run.I also was shot in the head again in 98 by a mugger and still have that bullet in my brain but there was no serious damage done by that one and I've never even had a headache from it.Thus the two different titles to this story.Life is a highway and you never know whether it will be adventure or tragedy you will face.I finally met the lady of my dreams. We met late in life but feel like we were always looking for each other. Her name is Martha and her picture's are in my photos. .Thanks for the time you spent reading this.
