I went to Ohio State in Columbus and was a founder of the rechartered Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity in May 1976. I have a B.S. in Computer Science. I worked for AT&T and subsidiaries in Lisle, IL, Columbus, and Phoenix for 24 years until being laid off in 2002. Since then we chased jobs, had really bad luck in the 2000s - I lost 4 jobs in 6 years. We lived in Lexington South Carolina, Little Rock Arkansas, and Ft. Collins Colorado. In 2009 we decided to leave the USA and the entire family lived in Puerto Vallarta Jalisco. But by the end of 2011 I was out of money and had to return to the States to find work. I arrived in Las Vegas NV in December 2011 with one suitcase, a laptop computer, and $3000. I had no job and nowhere to live. I had to start my life completely over at age 55. My wife joined me in Vegas, and since then we have lived in Jefferson City, MO, and now in Spring Hill, FL. My wife is from Guadalajara, Mexico. I met her when living in Phoenix.

I was the little guy with amblyopia who everyone teased all the time. I had few friends. I joined the Men's Chorus because I felt so lonely in such a large school. I enjoyed the chorus and had a solo in a concert. Bye Bye Birdie. I had a part where I intentionally sang badly and off key, which was easy! :) But when I turned 16 I started working at the Pick-N-Pay on Coventry Rd. Eventually my job conflicted with Chorus activities and I had to quit the Chorus. My senior year I had 4 classes in periods 1-4 and was out and off to work by 12 noon. I did not go to prom because I couldn't get a date. I've never been contacted from anyone although I'm easy to find. Just Google my name. I'm inclined to think that nobody cares about me.
