Up till now
My road to home
Arriving at now
We all take different paths in life. Family economics, political beliefs, religions, and schooling. I was born in Yale,MI on July 19,1975 to unwed parents.They did get married shortly after my birth and still are to this day. I got lucky.I am the oldest of eight children by the same parents,a little unusual these days for sure.I grew up in Port Huron,MI and attended PH Northern H.S. for two years I then moved to Yale when I turned 17, spent two years in their high school like establishment, and discovered that your last name has alot to do with your social standing there. I made a brief stint in San Antonio,TX, then back home to MI I came. I've been living mostly in Port Huron since. I had flirted with the idea of moving to Chicago,IL or Atlanta,GA but came to the conclusion I really needed to be close to my family.
Children
I have a nine year old boy who has opened my eyes to a different reality. A spiting image of me as a kid, same look and attitude towards life.He thinks he knows everything and argues pretty well for his age. Present a argument not a negotiation I tell him, I think he gets the point of it all too well now.Its hard as a parent to expect him to take certain activities seriously and still be a kid. A balancing act that I, myself have trouble grasping.Growing up and acting your age are not the same! Freinds and Family
My Foundation
I have a rather large family to keep track of. I have seven siblings, 18 aunts and uncles,I'm a uncle to 11 people and counting! Needless to say gatherings get pretty hectic.When we moved to Yale I found what turned out to be the most influential person of my life.Today Melody is still my best friend, 15 years and still going. Of all the great things she taught me the best is just to be comfortable in my own skin.
What makes Me Tick
"Thats No Ordinary Rabbit"
I love Music! Punk with The Cure,Depeche Mode,K's Choice,and Toad the Wet Sprocket on top.In rock Rush,Zombie, and Disturbed get regular listens. I'll put on some classical to relax Mozart,Beethoven,or Chopin. I'm not big into country or r&b but they get their time as well.I truly enjoy history and politics, yes they go hand in hand. Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin are probably my top two historic figures. Income taxes and the unconstitutional right to impose them. Trying to find the true historic links of past civilizations and today.Certain conspiracy theories of the Illuminati and Templar Knights ties to America. I feel George W. will be a very prominent figure all too soon but for all the wrong reasons.
I'm not much of a winter person, as living in Michigan has given me way too much of it. Summer is beaches,BBQ,beer,and horseshoes at my mum and dad's house,bonfires and outdoor parties.
When I'm looking to waste time watching movies its usually Stars Wars(yes all 6 of them) or another science fantasy.Television would be the History or Weather Channel,CNN,and Food Network. I've begun writing a lot more as my time has allowed it.Take a look at my Myspace page.
Something I really like to do and cant get enough of is traveling.Roller coasters and new cities.I've had the pleasure of going to Cozumel,MX and various U.S. destinations.I'd love see Europe and Madagascar soon but thats a bit out of reach still.
My Work History
It started at 15 when I began working for a low income job op in the city.It was helping to keep an assisted living complex for seniors maintained.At 18 I entered the factory world as an post-foundry grinder. That lasted till I started my apprentice ship with my uncle's shop.The last 13 years I've mostly worked at various cold heading companies in machine set-up making fasteners. A couple odd manufacturing and processing plants in between. Right now I'm in between jobs or am I creating a new one? Either way I'm enjoying what I'm doing and who knows what road I'll take next. Things of Interest
