I grew up in NY and NJ playing ice hockey, drinking and fighting. For the first 17 years of my life I would typically be on the losing end of the fights I was in except for a hand full. Then in October of 1979 at the age of 17 I joined the United States Marine Corps and left for boot camp before graduating H.S. That is when I learned that pain would only make me stronger and I began a love for pain and decided I would never be bullied again.

My family consisted of a mother and father and two older twin brothers. My parents and brothers were born in Brooklyn, NY. I was born on Long Island, NYand lived there until the sixth grade when the most horrible thing that could happen to a kid from NY could. We moved to NJ. Growing up I was far from being the favorite son. My older brother let's call him Joey was the smart one always a good student and he was and is smart, just doesn't like to work hard. Then my other older brother let's call him Nenny was as my father always said God's gift to women. He was not only good looking but smarter than me too and he would work hard on occasion. Nenny had problems with drugs and hanging out with the wrong people though.
