Of the many things that I've done, some I can't talk about. Not 007 spy stuff. Just stuff that "never happened", and "I don't know what you're talking about" kinda stuff.
I'm not at all that unique. There are tens of thousands like that. People doing the best that they can for their country.
But I've also worked as an EMT in the ER of a major hospital and have done CPR on more than 30 -40 people. I even taught CPR in that hospital.
Volunteer fireman about 35 years ago.
I used to walk up and down mountains with a 70 - 75 pound backpack for fun. Over time I covered a good chunk of the
Appalachian Trail.
One time hippie, believe it or not.
And like the Brewer and Shipley song
One Toke Over The Line;
"I met all the girls and I loved myself a few ...."
Well...
Maybe more than a few. An average looking guy can put women at their ease far better than a really good looking man.
