Born and raised in Torrance California.....once I got out of high school I traveled a lot....lived in Denmark for about eight months....then in Czechoslovakia/the Czech Republic for about 4 years....loved it....got married to a beautiful Czech woman.....moved back to the States....lived in Spokane WA for about seven months....wife hated it....moved back to Torrance area....started college (j.c. El Camino....then we both transferred to U.C.L.A.), separated, divorced, almost lost my will to live, survived, started enjoying life again after a few years of missery, work now as a real estate appraiser (love it!) ...... somewhere in all that mess I taught myself to play guitar and to speak Czech.....not the most practical skills....but I feel like a more well rounded person as a result. There is much more.....but shit! anyone reading this far must be bored out of their minds!! (my taste in movies and literature says a lot about me.....)
