About Me
I edited my profile with Thomasâ?? Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I dont really like talking about myself, but here goes. I was born in Tulsa OK, USA, we lived in Cuba till I was 3 years old, mom would carry us all in Cuba and then come to the US to have us so we would be US citizens which I thankher to this day for. Ive lived in Cienfuegos,Cuba, New York City, Tulsa , Dallas,Washington DC/Baltimore area and have traveled extensivly. Thanks to my father working for American Airlines, we flew for almost free. Even if my parents couldn't afford to go, they would send us kids together. France, Monaco, Italy, Portugal, Mexico, Spain, Netherlands, Germany, South & Central America, Brazil, asorted Islands. I never grew up with the predjudices many know or hold in their hearts, for this I am truely grateful. I was never taught to think in terms of color. I was taught to see in terms of human potential, including my own. I have been lucky to have experienced more in my first 18 years of life than most have in a lifetime. Ive done just about everything for work, from mopping floors, washing pots and pans, to making pizzas NY style,bartended and waited tables, was a diamond courrier for a while in the city, odd acting jobs, then I started a studio instrument repair business, then got on @ electric lady land studios in NY and learned to wire recording boards. I then started to travel doing road work for all sorts of bands, worked @ CBGBs, met all the Beatles one by one , The Ramones, Blondie, Joe Cocker, Loen Russell, Phobe Snow, Eric Clapton,Willie Nelson the list goes on . I am all about the music, music is one of my passions. I lived and worked for Loen Russell In Tulsa for three years in the 70s, great times ,fast & furious. Traveling with rock and rollers in my teens. Always the youngest around, it was great. You will have to wait for my book to hear those stories, if ever. My musical tastes have moved into house djs, trance, some drum& bass among others. Ive lived in NY, when I slept on park benches and when we rented whole floors of the Plaza Hotel and full strechhhh limos. I prefer the latter. NY is much more fun with money , trust me. For some reason, Ive know and ran with rich and famous people all my life & was born into that life, untill our government instigated the rising in Cuba and put Castro in power, I would have a string of Polo ponies today, if not for that action , I was so young, I never knew what I lost, and life throws us on different paths for many reasons. I wouldn't trade my life for anything. I have one sister who works in the arts and a brother who works for Southwest Airlines. Both I love dearly. Fame and wealth does not impress , what people do with it does. I love life to the fullest and drink it in. Now I own the Gypsy Coffee House & Cyber Cafe' in Tulsa , a place where people of different backgrounds ,regardless of color, race, orientation, can express themselves, free from censorship or condemnation. The Sanctuary Spa & 35mm, trying to bring a small portion of the world, to the middle of the country. My favorite city is Paris , for the city and art, and Amsterdam for the people & Tulsa for the lifestyle it affords me. I love people of all sorts and my freinds are my true wealth. I hope to buy a barge and start traveling the inland water ways of Europe , taking pics ,writing and living life , meeting as many people as I can in this experiment we call life. Walk in Peace.....
