Bob, a refugee from corporate America, is now hiding out in the Chihuahuan Desert. He worked his way through community college during and after a five-year stint in the U.S. Marine Corps. Why five years, you ask? Because the Marine Corps builds men, some just take longer than others. He spent forty plus years slaving away (as I’m sure he will tell you) in executive positions at Intel, Digital and Unisys. Bob and his wife of 58 years are now hanging curtains in the in their 29th home in Deming, New Mexico. Count ’em … 29. He took up creative writing as a retirement hobby and says he writes just to consume space on his hard drive, but I think he secretly hopes that someone might actually read and enjoy his ramblings. Visit his web site, Too Much Tequila, Too Little Sunscreen, at http://toomuchtequila.typepad.com for a chuckle and maybe even an “aha moment” or two. He would love to hear from you at tumbleweeds@q.com.
