I'm positive that I have the most ususual life story of anybody here. I was born in Albania. Along with my mom, I escaped from there when I was very young back in the mid 1950s. We lived in MA until 1970 when I attended grad school in the Midwest and met my wife. I am still in the Midwest (like it except I now hate winters here). I started a private weather consulting company and as of 12 years ago also evolved into an Internet Service Provider (ISP). I (along with my business partner) recently bought out a web designing and web hosting company in the area.

If I were to go into the real details of the escape and how I met my dad for the first time in MA (he could not get back into Albania since the border closed), it would boggle your mind. I should write a book about it, but I have not to this point. I love my family, my Pats, Red Sox, and my LS460L.

The thing that stinks is that this is all I know how to do. Well, selling cars too, but I do not want to re-visit that avenue. I'm good at sales, but with no type of college education, the majority of companies out there will frown upon an individual with no formal education It really stinks because I know that I have more field experience than most of the grads out there. What ever happened to "hands-on" experience?
It is not too late to get a college education. You are shooting yourself in the foot by not having it because it disqualifies you for so many of the better paying positions. I know it will be hard and expensive but you need to do it.

Nothing for nothing guys, did you ever hear about people building lists on you. 1/4 of these guys posting don't own the car.

I see posted from time to time, what is the age of the LS driver. Where do you live.

Just my 2 cents for us real LS owners and enthusiasts, don't give out your personal info to easy.

Well, nobody is giving out bank account or credit card or SS numbers here. If someone wants to use the fact I'm a retired insurance guy to build a list on me, I say knock yourself out.

Construction aggregates (which sounds sexier than sand & gravel pits) and land development. I'm 36.

I live under a bridge downtown. Sometimes I sleep in the back seat of my 460.

We've been looking at bridges in our city, too. I like the open, airy feel, the high ceilings and the abundant architectural details, like exposed beams in the ceilings and the strong horizontal linearity of the designs. They tend to be spacious and have ample parking, too.

They're also "green", with lots of cross-ventilation, ample sunlight and low energy costs. And they're almost always close to major thoroughfares, so there's good access and commuting is a snap.

We've also found that there are lots of interesting people to meet in bridge communities, if you're into entertaining and socializing.
