| About Me | NO I NEVER LIKED BIOLOGY. CHEMISTRY WAS OK. MATH AND ENGLISH NOT OK. P.E. MY FAVORITE, STUDY HALL MY SECOND BEST. HISTORY WAS OK TOO! YOU MEAN BIO DOESN'T STAND FOR BIOLOGY? OK I GET IT, HOW ABOUT: OLD GUY LIVING WITH TO FEMALE CATS THAT DON'T GET ALONG. OLD GUY, BUT NOT AS OLD AS THE OLD GUY WHO IS SO OLD HE'S SO FAR OVER THE HILL THAT HE'S DOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OTHER SIDE. I'M AN OLD GUY THAT FEELS A WHOLE LOT MORE LIKE I DO NOW THEN I DID AWHILE AGO. OH! AND I'M YOUNGER THAN MY OLDER SISTER WHO IS OLDER THAN I AM BECAUSE SHE WAS BORN 4 YEARS BEFORE ME. BUT I'M REALLY NOT TELLING HER AGE, AS LONG AS YOU DON'T LOOK AT MY BIRTHDAY IN THIS PROFILE. THIS COULD TAKE AWHILE!! IT WAS BACK IN 49, IF I REMEMBER RIGHT, THAT I APPEARED IN HISTORY. I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS TAKEN IN ONLY BECAUSE I HAD A QUARTER IN MY HAND, I DON'T KNOW WHY I HAD A QUARTER IN MY HAND BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE ANY TEETH AT THE TIME LET ALONE TEETH THAT WOULD BE FALLING OUT. SO I STARTED EARNING MY KEEP STARTING RIGHT OFF THE BAT AND THE FOLKS FIGURED I'D BE WORTH ALOT BY THE TIME I DID GET TEETH AND THEY STARTED FALLING OUT. IF YOU NOTICE MY PLACE OF BIRTH THEN YOU WOULD KNOW WHY THESE THINGS ARE IMPORTANT, IF NOT TO BAD.

WELL WE WERE CONFINED TO OUR CABIN FOR THE WHOLE CRUISE TO THE U.S. I MADE UP FOR IT LATER IN MY HISTORY AND LET THE GOVERNMENT PAY FOR MY NEXT FEW CRUISES. IT WENT SOMETHING LIKE THIS, JOIN THE NAVY AND SEE THE WORLD, THEY DON'T TELL YOU THAT 2/3RDS OF THE WORLD IS WATER. BACK TO THE STORY: WE LANDED IN NEW YORK AND WENT TO SALT LAKE. I PICKED UP ON THE ENGLISH LANGWIGE VERY QUIKCLY. MY FATHER CAME HOME FROM WORK AND MY MOTHER WAS SO OVERJOYED THAT I HAD STARTED TO SPEAK ENGLISH BEFORE HER, BECAUSE AT THE AGE OF 3 TO 4 AND LIVING IN THE U.S. MY TEETH MIGHT BE WORTH MORE MONEY. MY FATHER WHO ALREADY COULD SPEAK ENGLISH GOT EXCITED ALSO AND ASKED MY MOTHER WHAT ENGLISH I KNEW. SHE TOLD HIM I SAID "SHUT UP". I GUESS THEY THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS A GO...(read more) |
