Larry's Story
Photo was taken in 2018, age 80.
My wife Wanda and I relocated to Cotacachi, Ecuador early in August, 2018 after her retirement to escape what I view as a growing infestation of "American Socialism" in a country that once was a land of the free and the home of the brave with a government of, by and for the people.
Born in Marion, Indiana, and spent most of my childhood in Jay County Indiana, living on farms first at Pennville and then at Redkey.
People are either impressed or irritated when I tell them I graduated in the top ten of my Redkey high school class, which is true. They are neither, however, when they learn my class consisted of a mere 16 students. I came in 9th.

d a living as a computer programmer, an accountant, an auditor, and a fraud analyst. Have left thousands of employers as a pot-stirring persona non grata.
Served four years in the U.S. Navy working as an aviation electronic technician. Most enjoyable were the two years during 1958-1959 operating electronic countermeasure equipment using P4M and P2V aircraft in the Black Sea area detecting Soviet launches.
Hobbies? Living on the Internet, small-time writing, and watching television news and crime shows. When my ball and chain (wife) "encourages" me, I'll work around the house.
I spend the rest of my time just hanging around waiting to die.
Motto: Be good to dogs and live healthily.
