Jim's Story
Life
After GHS, attended Central Arizona College, then ran off to CA (San Francisco, of course... as the saying goes, ||| read between the lines folks!) for a year to declare my independence. Came back to Globe & worked in the Admin Dept. at Inspiration for several years. Had 2 heart attacks in '87. My Mom passed away in '88 from heart failure. I moved to Phoenix, lived there until '95, working as a Tech Support Analyst, playing with computers, on 2nd floor of the Tempe Police Dept. Had 2 heart attacks in '92, 1 of which was massive, left me with a left ventricular aneurysm & Class 3 heart disease. Moved to Eugene, OR in '95 to work for HBO & Co. as a Tech Consultant & had another heart attack. Yes, I'm still drinking, smoking (despite having COPD from chronic bronchitis) and eating fatty foods. Moved to Atlanta in '96, during the Olympics with all the traffic and visitors... like a moron, went to work as a Product Application Spec. for HP -- promoted to Response Center Sr. Support Engineer. Dad passed away in '99 from a heart attack just weeks after I was out to visit on vac...Expand for more
ation. I herniated my L-5 lumbar disk & had to go through rehab, thanks to the exercise I went from 178# to 137#, but now bouncing around between 145-150#. I have a nice 2,100+ sq. ft., 4-sided, red brick home (split ranch plan with 3 bedrooms/2 baths) on a full basement in an upscale neighborhood in the NE 'burbs of Atlanta. My taste in cars has changed -- I own '05 Jaguar XK8 convertible & a 400hp 6.0L LS-2 GTO with a 6-speed manual transmission(my mid-life crises finally hit!)... I'm a really big driver, the Jag has only about 30,000 miles on it & the GTO has on 13,500. Been in/out of lust/love so many times my bedroom needs a revolving door (LOL!!!). Was in a serious car crash in '04 resulting in several herniated disks (now degenerative disk disease), tinnitus, the onset of arthritis to my spine & hips and what the doctors diagnosed as post-traumatic stress disorder....crazy -- WHO ME??? (Between the heart, COPD & back problems I'm now on long-term disability.) Needless to say I don't get out and "run crazy" as much as I did just a few years ago, but life goes on....
