    Washed dishes in a pub, age 12, in Blowing Rock, N.C.

    Had a car for hire/transport age 16, got caught trying to outrun the Feds when I drove off the side of the mountain on the Blueridge Parkway age 17( thought I was a better driver & had a faster car, neither turned out to be true ). They claimed I was running corn liquor, but they found no proof of that.

    Spent a few days in jail.

    Judge gave me a choice of the Raleigh Penitentiary or the Marine Corps, I choose the Corps.

    4 years as an electronic tech on cryptographic equipment.

    25 years as a police officer in South Florida.

    Retired, raising a good son & spending the weekdays assisting hockey & archery moms with chores around their houses.
