“Does the guy that had his hair cut have a job, a house, and a pension?”
He actually had a pretty amazing life, I think it may be covered at the end of the article.
It’s very sad that this fellow died so young, but it sounds like he was vying for “most interesting man in the world”.
He did some fancy schmancy equestrian work in England. Was a merchant seaman. Became a chef at some fancy restaurant, and even did contractor work of some kind (food?) in Iraq.
I might have messed up some of the details, but that’s the flavor of it.
Maybe he just did all these things to try and escape the humiliation he still felt over Romney’s prank.
But I was bullied a lot in school (A LOT - and by people who were JUST LIKE ME in every way, sex, color, class, ethnicity, religion) and I’ve never done anything particularly interesting.
I got bullied in Junior High for being a “Band Fag”. Yeah well a funny thing happens to drummers when they get to High School. They have a Rock Band. And what do Rock bands attract? GIRLS! and Beer!
