William's Story

In school I lived in "The Village" off Culver, was in a full leg cast 3 or 4 times during High School including Grad day, could continue plowing toward the goal in mud football with 4 or 5 people on my back, spent most of my free time wondering around the pavillion or green belts of The Village, also hung around with Chuck Hoffmeister in Mission Viejo with Rob Ingram. 2021: Still married to my best friend. Now almost 20 years. I have moved back to Arizona finally. I've wanted out of California for a VERY long time. I got tired of still working (I like working but) while public employees who I knew worked much less than private workers and got FAT pensions at young ages and sat around laughing and joking in expensive restaurants that most people couldn't afford. Being in Sacramento I'm sure I saw that more than most. I don't hold it against them for taking the money, it was the pension system in California that is badly broken. Nearly every employment law was designed to make my employees my enemy and me look like a crook because I was a business owner. I had to get the hell out. So I'm back in Scottsdale and loving it. 6 years here. Still running the business after closing the California corp and opening an LLC here. I'm down to 5 freelancers and me now which is just fine. I am relearning how to fly Gliders. This is the first time I've been near a place with grea...Expand for more
t Soaring in years. Super happy until I look in the mirror and realize that I'm not just a senior citizen but have been for awhile. So I don't look in mirrors much :) Life From school I messed around Orange County for awhile till I got the chance to move to Page Arizona. Page is on the border of Utah and AZ and on Lake Powell. I thought I was moving to hell but it couldn't be worse than Orange County. After 6 months I never wanted to leave. I started riding HD and got pretty into the biker lifestyle before it was yuppiefied. I had hair down to my lower back, beard about 1/2 that big and wore a 45 and shirts that said "Kill 'em all, let God sort them out". But I wasn't bad, just looked it. Page is right in the midst of the Grand Canyon, Bryce, Zion, Painted Desert and Colorado, it was beautiful riding. I was a power plant mechanic till arthritis started scaring me. I started programming PC's in the early 80's and straightend up my act, became self employeed and built a small business. Somewhere along the way I wound up in Sacramento, CA. I married my best friend (well third marriage but it too awhile to get right) but never had any kids. I'm libertarian, drive a Spec944 sometimes in SCCA racing and have cut my hair and have become fairly respectable. update, I know drive a Spec Racer Ford always in SCCA, am still libertarian and still somewhat respectable.
