Hometown

Chicago, Illinois

Places I've been

Nowhere yet but have these big travel plans like everyone else has.

More about me

Born in Chicago, joined the Army after high school graduation, recieved a free all expense paid trip to Viet Nam.

Went to coll. on the G.I.Bill, upon getting out of the Army. Opened a small business, got a job with the Goverment and after thirty years I retired.

So far life has been good despite a bout with cancer but doing fine now. Looking forward to the "Golden Years".  So far some parts of the "Golden Years" are turning to rust.  No, not those parts, gotcha ya!

I am loving, come when called, house broken, hey I would make a good puppy ,a old one, but still a good puppy.

Took the Eons test and since I won't make it to 80 I am going to enjoy the hell out of what time I have left. Hand me a beer, give me a cigar, and where is that remote. I also need Chicago style pizza, the best in the universe.

Time to get started on my own "Bucket List" I guess.

Have a great day!!!
