Born in Lisbon, Portugal, lived till my 21st b-day in the south of the country, by the beach, when my one year before my parents came to the states, and I spent one great year there by myselfe, lets see, no bills, my work week was 16 hours, when I needed money for food and incidentals all I had to do was go see the guy my dad had left in charge of his business. The apartment all for me alone, as a matter of fact the whole building was basicly to myselfe, they had rented the other apartments to the phone company for offices, so nobody in the building after 5 PM. and weekends. I miss that year.
But that ended when I decided to come to see what America was all about, that was 1984, well, I am still here.
It has been a roller coaster ride to say the least, am on my second marriage, hopefully my last, unlike my dad he is on his 4th, and I know this will be his last.
But now I bend neon glass, thats what my dad did, and my grand father also, too bad in ths area neon is very slow, so in days I don't have neon work I go with crews from my boss other company and do lighting retrofits, not exiting at all, it helps to pay the bills.
