as a stand-in for Jason Statham. The Hitcher, Wild Hogs, Far Side Of Jericho, and Unspeakable to name a few.
Among Joe's more humorous lines:
I've been married so many times that when I die, they are going have to hire a referee to do a "tip-off" with the flag to see which family gets it!
Take my wife- PLEASE! (Everyone else has).
Truth be known- I have had several wives over the course of my lifetime...a few were even my own!
That red dot between your eyes does NOT mean your Hindu!".
More about Joe: "I'm living the life being the best known "nobody" you'll ever know".
I can't find a 1978 Year Book; but, the NJROTC photo (above) is from there. I was the Drill Team Commander (Really good memories of all you guys. Wagner, Butch, Miller, Ashcraft, Sully, Van Tassel, Lindsey, Doyle, Sullivan, "Little" Butcher- Some of my best High School memories).
In posting here, My hopes and prayers are that life has treated you, and many other of my friends from Millington High, well. May God's grace and blessings be upon you all.
I am PLEASANTLY-RETIRED!
