Distant but not Forgotten.

Some jobs come and go as the ones on this page did. New ventures that started with ever so grand expectations failed. Several actually showed a profit before external events changed changed everything.

While each of these positions is no longer listed on a current resume the experiences forever shaped the person that I have become. Working manual labor in the early years built the foundation of my career and paved the way to military service. The military experience provided the leadership, fortitude and the perseverance to experiment despite the unknowns. Both provided me with empathy and compassion for those left behind.

These small business ventures were a mere taste of the American Dream. There will no doubt be many more links to this page. Perhaps, in time, if you should notice little change to these pages one could assume that I have achieved true success...or perhaps I have disappeared...or maybe I am tending bar in the Bahamas...only time will tell...
