Wayne's Story
Life
After high school I joined the Navy and became a jet engine mechanic. Served in Viet Nam aboard the USS Oriskany. Stationed at Miramar Air Base in San Diego. After service, I began what would be a career in retail sales. Automotive and motorcycle related mainly. Neat to work in an industry that you not only work at, but live it as well. My love for cars, hotrods, Harley's and all aspects of speed and power have never changed. Married twice with one son and I have two granddaughters.
My life in the past few years has been a concoction of happiness, hope, loss and a rebirth of the real meaning of loving someone ... appreciation fits in there somewhere too!

I feel the same today, as I did then ... kiss my ass if ya can't appreciate that we did our duty. 56,000 patriotic people didn't come HOME ... I was fortunate.
So, anyway ... these days I am still into hotrods/harleys and a frame of mind that says, "I know I will get old ... but I will never BE old!" My friends can accept the inevitable if they want ... I choose to give it the finger and stay in a young, hopeful, active state of mind!! I don't look my age, I don't act my age, so I must not be my age ... Feel free to write me anytime ... I enjoy yakkin' with ya and who knows, maybe we might find some new ground to explore. Old friends and new alike will be gladly received in my HOME! Later Peeps!
