I'm from a part of Michigan where most of my friends and neighbors are ashamed of our Governor, two U.S. Senators, and the entire east side of the State with their liberal, big government mentality.

I've been married to the same woman for over 36 years, spent seven years in the U.S. Navy, graduated from high school and have an Associates Degree which I started working towards the first and only time that I ever collected un-employement that I, myself, did not instigate.
