I've lived in and been to many places around the world. After 22 years of active service in the US Navy, my father retired to live in Wisconsin. Oddly enough, I left my family in Wisconsin to finished High School in Indiana while staying with an uncle. Next, I joined the Navy and spent 6 years on active duty before having a 20 year career in Silicon Valley California (Mountain View). As a result, I’ve worked for a few large companies, such as Ford Aerospace (Space Systems Loral), The Wall Street Journal, and Sun Microsystems. After becoming a dot com casualty, I drove an over the road tractor/trailer for Swift Transportation for about 8 months. And then I moved here to become a Las Vegas Taxicab driver just over five years ago. And now because of the Economics of Vegas, I'm going back to trucking.
Most people think that I'm too nice, but I'm smart enough to know when I'm being taken advantage of. I'll gladly be a very good friend, if allowed, but I'm not as generous as I once was to just any untrustworthy person.
Being a local history buff, I'm much happier chatting about the Las Vegas Culture, rather than my own history.
I was doing my blogging exclusively on blogger.com, but I've now changed to wordpress.com for a weekly serial of my trucking adventures. If you'd like to get a better view of me, personality wise, this is probably the best place to look.

I'm currently seeking a new roommate and I've created a slide show below to help give a small preview of what is being offered.
Thank you.
