More of an accomplishment of My Doctors. But surviving a ruptured bowell obstruction. It was touch and go for a while. 3 Surgeries later good as new.

Graduating from college. My momma always said "D" is for Diploma.

I've made 3 movies (countless others not proud of; wish it was porn; but sadly not)

One is a 90 minute film noir homage.

Second is a 40 minute Sci-fi/Western.

Third is a 60 minute Slasher/Horror.

80 minute Spy Movie: Incomplete (not in the proud category).

But each and every one teaches and informs you for the future. Like kids, I'm told.

Not so much an accomplishment, more of a learning lesson.

Lesson to the Forum: Stay Out Of The Film Business. They got rich nephews who are totally into this. And it sucks. But I can say I made 3 movies from different genres.

Don't Be Stupid

Discipline, young purks. Discipline.

Harry that's nice you served our country in Nam. What unit were you in? I was with the 101st Screaming Eagles out of Fort C.

Was the highest rated player on a National Championship 8-Ball Team. We survived a week long tournament in Las Vegas of over 500 teams from all over the United States and Canada. The team played so good in the semi-finals and finals (never lost a match) that I didn't even have to play. We happen to beat a team from Las Vegas in the finals. I had been on teams that had finished high before, a 9th and several 17th place finishes. The funny thing is of all the teams I have played on over the years at the Nationals, player for player, the team that won it all was probable the worse one of the bunch.

two things

Was in a relationship for 10 years to a girl that did a lot for me. I had allot handed to me when I was younger and even into my mid twenties. from my late 20's till about 6 years ago I hadn't lived on my own and was a bit worried. Well I did and at that time bettered my self by doing so. very proud of doing for my self, when was used to everyone doing for me.

Secondly. When that girl left me (6 yrs ago) I went into a pretty good depression, but i beat it with out any counseling, drugs or anyone else helping me. very proud of that as well. It's hard to beat depression on your own.  

Having some problems with my the amount of characters in my forum signature, so I will post my records in my threads for the sports they pertain to.
