Professional History:	I was 18 years old and in Geo's in Eagle River and, to my utter amazement, I was drunk. I mentioned to the owner of the establishment that if he ever needed help, that I would jump behind the Bar. I jumped behind the Bar, had a blast, and got drunker. I have been having fun helping people have fun for 20 years now. Flies time when fun you have!
