Default SoCal Retired (not retarted) Marine Checkin' In

Been here a while. Just haven't posted that much. Thought it was time to stop in and do a little introduction. Originally from GA, spent 20+ in the Corps. Retired and stayed in Cali (kids are here with their mom, before you ask why). Work in the security department at one of the local indian casinos. Haul horses in my spare time. Drive a 04.5 Ram 2500. Only mods are AFE intake, MIA silencer ring, Magnaflow exhaust with dual outs. It's my daily driver. 166,000 miles and only been to the dealership for service when the lift pump went out at 98,000 miles.

Born at GA Baptist Hospital. Spent my first seven years in Sylvan Hills (not far from the old Lakewood Fairgrounds). Moved to, and spent my formative years, in Fairburn. About 20 miles SW of ATL.

Eureka? About 10-11 hours north of me. Close in cosmic distances, but not so much.

4 hours south? Must be near Valdosta. I spent time in Middle GA. Lived in Cochran for a while when I went to Middle Georgia College. I miss the drunk excursions into the swamps, late at night, a canoe, no flashlight and a ton of beer. I'm lucky I didn't kill myself before I was 21.
