Bushwood Birthday: Joe



In the first of many Bushwood Birthdays to come, we would like to recognize Joe. He has been a die hard and vehement supporter of Bushwood since its inception.

Joe was born in Pierre, South Dakota and spent many of his early years being somewhat of a rebel-rouser in a youthful street gang called The Knuckle Shafts. They made their money by pilfering old women and selling bootleg Ring Pops out of the back of an '85 Ford Taurus wagon. Joe had many brush ins with the law including one instance of attempting to deface Theodore Roosevelt on Mount Rushmore.

He soon began to see that this road was leading to one of disaster and joined a monastery in the hills of Portugal. While there he learned stick fighting and meditation. Combining those two crafts he soon began traveling the globe performing at children's parties while also doing part time work as a bouncer at various adult novelty wholesale stores.

Joe now lives in Columbus, Ohio and is the owner/operator of a moving company called "One Guy and a Red Wagon." He has three finches, six Galapagos turtles, and a cat named Dennis.

Happy Birthday Joe.

Sincerest wishes,
Judge Smails
