orlando's Story
I was in Iceland as a US Navy military overseas brat from 1963-1965. I attended Mahan elementary and Junior H.S. school there from 5th to 8th grade. I played in the junior bowling and little league baseball. Left Iceland in the summer of 1965 and started my high school at Encinal HS in Alameda, Calif. (class of 1969) where I was active in sports playing football and track and field. Lived in Alameda until 1970 before I got drafted in the army.
I have 3 kids, all boys(ages 24,32,34). Been happily married for 35yrs. I was a army military draftee in the army and later signed up for the Air Force. My army training was in Fort Ord, Calif.;I was stationed in Texas, 'Nam, Germany,Hawaii, Calif, and Florida during my military career.

one's driver and love to go gambling in casinos.
My kids were born in Hawaii(Tripler Hospital), Florida (Homestead Hospital), and Hayward (Kaiser Hospital).
My civilian jobs were Transworld Airlines (gone), Amdahl Corp (teetering),
Santa Clara Univ.( should have stayed there), Sun Microsystems (had lots of fun traveling), Compaq Corp (bad mistake cause I shoulda taken Network Appliance), and Savi Technology (missed opportunity force me to jump ship).
So much for that. Notice these companies are either gone or just hanging around? Honestly, I had nothing to do with it before I decided to leave. Hahahah.....
My whole purpose in life now is to have fun, stay true to my love ones, specially my love for God our father in heaven, stay busy, and renew friendships with old friends and make new ones.
By the way, I'm still searching for the meaning of life, if anyone out there has found it, please let me know.--:--).......LOL (lots of laugh).
One good thing is my wife and I are enjoying being grandparents.
