What do you think is the meaning of life?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meaning_of_life 

I'm a Capitalist, Believer, Conservative, Constitutionalist

I'm a former owner-operator. I owned my own trucks. I leased the trucks to freight companies. I was happy to see the ICC (Interstate Commerce Commission) removed from US regulations. Freight rates went up after they were removed. Airline ticket prices went down.

I think health insurance should be sold by capitalist companies, not by the government. Government should be limited. It is bad enough as it is. Making government bigger is expanding a bad thing. Ronald Reagan would agree.

I think the constitution should be interpreted as it was intended at the time it was written; originalism.

What were your favorite toys as a child?

My favorite toy was my bicycle. I liked to ride it, and I liked it’s paint job.

It was durable. You didn’t have to work on it to keep it running. It performed well on roads. I didn’t climb mountains with it

I had a pair of clamp on roller skates, but I didn’t have any concrete to skate on. I had a BB gun, but didn’t have money to spend on BB’s.

I did like to play checkers, and Chinese checkers. But they are games; not toys.

Which people were the kindest to you in life?

 Which people have been the kindest to you in life?

My wife, grandparents, and two others.
Joseph D. Gezienski, who lives in Curtisville, Pennsylvania is one. My truck broke down near the Route 8 Exit on the Pennsylvania turnpike. I discovered that the truckstop had put gasoline in my diesel truck. My wife was living in Houston, Texas. I put my truck in the repair shop, and that’s where I met Joseph. He owned trucks, and he offered me a job. He was also involved in many other businesses. I started driving, and Joe suggested that I buy a truck from him. I did, and bought another truck from him several years later. My wife moved from Houston, Texas, and we bought a house in Curtisville, Pa. My daughter Vicki was 12 years old at the time.
I quit driving my own truck, and went to work for Angelo Fonzi. He had quite a few trucks of his own, and owned a company, which had hundreds of owner operators. I was top revenue man for about 15 years. My wife, Mary, worked for Fonzi too. We worked in Hammond, In. I drove a 34 wheel rig from Hammond, In to Buffalo, NY. The route was through Canada. The route was from Gary, In to Detroit. The route went from Detroit, through London, Hamilton, and Niagara to Buffalo, NY, There were three 34 wheel rigs running to Buffalo. Myself, James Farler, and Jerrold Luipold.
My wife lived in Curtisville, Pa the first years of driving from Gary, In to Buffalo. I had a 400 mile commute. On Friday night I took a cab to the train station in Gary, In. I would get on the train bound for Pittsburgh, Pa. The train had a delicacy; boiled shrimp sandwiches. I slept in the seats. One of the main stops was Cleveland, Oh. Saturday morning I would arrive in Pittsburgh. We would go home, and I would leave Pittsburgh around noon Sunday. Monday morning I would be back in Gary, In in the truck.

The house pictures are our home in Curtisville, Pa.
We had a hot tub and a pool table.

My wife has been very kind for 69 years.

How did you get your first job?

 A parochial school in Napoleon, Ohio contacted me, and offered me a job teaching school.

They required that I attend River Forest Concordia University for one term, and I would start work after one term.

I completed the one term at River Forest, and taught the second and third grade class at St. Paul Lutheran parochial school.

I lived in the home of one of the church members.
The church paid for my tuition at River Forest.
I had students, who were tested, and they were at 8th grade level
One girl student came to school every day, but never said a word for the whole school year. She didn’t participate in anything.
I was 18 years old when I was contacted to teach school
I taught for one year, and I was hired by GM

Amazing so proud of you!

Galveston TX

Galveston TX

We lived in Texas from 1963 to 1973.

We lived in Dallas and Houston. We lived in Houston about five years. Galveston was about one hour drive from Houston, and was directly connected by interstate highway. There are also ferries, which operate between Galveston Island and the mainland.

There are communities on Galveston island. Jamaica Beach is one, and Sea Isle is another.

We bought a lot on Sea Isle, which allowed us to use the swimming pool at Sea Isle. 

There was an island near Sea Isle. My friend Ernie Bramlet had a cabin on the island. He invited me to visit the island numerous times. The surface on the island was covered with sea shells. Birds had nests in the sea shells.

I saw stingrays and dolphins while I was at Sea Isle. The stingrays didn't appear to be dangerous.

I bought a boat motor, while we were on Sea Isle. The motor disconnected and fell into the water, and we couldn't retrieve it. 

One person had a round house, his theory being that the hurricane wind couldn't be effective against a round surface.

There was an old couple, who owned a shrimp boat. They acted like teen agers, and were as happy as could be.

Shrimp boat captains earn between $30,000 and $130,000 a year.

Please explore Sea Isle by clicking on "Layers" (bottom left) and the icons there. Also explore by clicking on the "arrows" (when your cursor is on the road, an "arrow" appears), and to explore futher down the road.

I found a shrimp boat commercial net. I left it; having no idea that is was worth about $2000.

There are fisheries near shrimper's locations, which buy seafood. The shrimp boat pulls in to the fishery dock and unloads.

Enjoy!
