School K...I'll open up here...maybe this will help insure I get some kind of "alumni tru-confessions / feedback"! B I G G E S T crush : Gale Camp Teacher inspiration : Vernon Williams Funniest : I always thought it was was really "bust-up" that I could do more push-ups than most of the "jocks" ... AND ... making money at various sports w/o my high school amateur status that gave " all 'THE NAMES' " their popularity... Happiest : Buying my '70 Mustang after graduation ... I still drive that BOSS 351 today, and it's every bit the "muscle car" it was in 1970 ... Caziest : The thought of standing on my own two feet, honor, integrity, and bein' a "nice guy" of intelligence would ever matter to "girls" in high school... College SCCC CCOUSAF MILITARY ACADEMY Workplace Certified golf instructor ... foreplay: history & golf etiquette play: tee to green postplay: the 19th hole ... ACUMEN INSTRUCTION (707-448-4952) Privately owned & operated Certified auto technician specializin' in givin' old cars new life aka: puttin' the heat under the hood & keepin' your rubber on the road while optimizin' your vehicle's performance...at ALL WHEELS MAXIMIZED (707-301-0906) privately owned & operated Military I enlisted in the Air Force in March of 1971, and I became a commissioned officer in 1979 ... Throughout 22 years of enlisted-n-commissioned service, I was a Joint Services participant and augmented EVERY BRANCH OF THE MILITARY INCLUDING THE ROYAL AIR FORCE IN HONG KONG & SINGAPORE ... Highlights of my 22 years of service include providing communication security while assigned to the Pentagon and Air Force One from 1973 to 1975 at Andrews AFB in Washington DC ... I was honorably discharged in October of 1993 and pursued a career in the automotive repair industry ... I always wanted to be the son of very proud parents who had successfully raised their boy to be a man ... As a result, they knew it hadn't been a waste of their time-n-energy. Most of my family and all of my friends thought that was a "no fun at all" idea. As it turns out, they were so very wrong. How do I blow off steam? It's so easy ... I detach myself from any-n-all "negative" situations and "positively" vent with my life's partner who is a fabulously patient "sounding board" & a terrifically objective listener. My favorite way to relax is without a doubt a "no-brainer" - simply spend time with the woman, the lady, and the person who I dearly love ... there isn't anything that even comes close because she has proven to me that nothing else really matters as long as we're together! The wildest thing I ever did in school was on a hot day in June ... I "cut" English class, got a 6-pack of Budweiser, found a secluded spot at the "LAKE", and went "skinny dippin'" for the first time ... 'Nuff said! If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference to be able to deal with the day-to-day. My hero was my Father ... Although, he was "bar none" the toughest man I ever knew or, for that matter, will ever know; his intuitive perception-n-philosophical approach to life allowed him to convey a "sense of fair play" and logical resolution that never ceased to amaze me ... he taught me that a promise made is a debt unpaid and is never to be compromised or ever subject to change by circumstances, by time, or by the people involved; to always live by "THE GOLDEN RULE"; and to take "Personal Responsibility In Daily Effort - PRIDE - and never ever sacrifice it for anything or anybody ... When he passed away in 1997, I not only lost my Father, but I also lost my friend; and I knew I would miss him everyday for the rest of my life ... His belief-n-words about true friendship still flow through my veins today - A man hath no greater love than that of a friend ... He was so right about that and everything else he ever said about life and the people who live it ... I have been pleasantly surprised to finally realize why one should never "settle" for just anybody for whatever reason - their relationship will eventually fail ... Have the derermination and patience to find the special person who will "com...Expand for more
