    My Mother's family came to Las Vegas, NV from Detroit (Grosse Pointe Woods), MI. My Grandfather & Great Uncles organized the Teamsters Union. They established casinos in Las Vegas. One of my Grandfather's irons (besides casino operations, night clubs, car dealerships, & coin ops) included master mechanic/test driver for Ford Motor Co. He was a clock whiskey runner as a young man. He preferred the power of Pontiac Chiefs. My Uncle drag raced super stock cars & motorcycles down the LV Strip, & also won trophies on the designated tracks, in his jd days. He's had a collection of classic cars & boats. As did my Father, who was a general contractor and prospector/miner. For kicks he owned an original early 1930's auto court (like "It Happened One Night") in Kemmerer, WY, at the gate of the Grand Tetons, called "Shell Chateau Court", where he spent his summers fishing, before he passed away. My Grandmothers, Mother, & Aunts (on both sides) were very glamorous models. My maternal Grandmother had a saying, "Every woman has a little actress in her." One of my Aunts would routinely hot-wire cars from her Las Vegas High School parking lot. My Mother poised me with rigorous parochial education, dance lessons, & charm school. So it was natural for me to be drawn to David Zivot, with our common ground of old style cars, film, music, & clothes. Working on cars with David is scrying a past way of life (I trademarked "Timechanic"). Both born & raised in "historic" LV around the block from each other, we spent our youth one going out one door as the other came in another door, with uncanny mutual associations & endeavors. It was later in our adulthood that a mutual friend formally introduced us. Since then it's been double boodle!

    As a Patriot,
    I stand for the Constitution of the United States of America,
    & the Sacred Ground it stands on.
