Born in Ohio, 1946. I've lived in New York, New Mexico, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, California and now I reside in Bumfuk, Nevada.

My father was an artist and my mother was raised in an environment of culture. They both died in '06.  As the oldest son, I had to deal with all the crap that the courts and society slam down on your placemat when parents die.

Never did real well in school until I entered the MBA program at Cal State Fullerton. Frankly, I never gave a damn until then.
