From Hell to High Waters

A True Story Of Growing Up In One Of The Toughest Neighborhoods Of Queens New York. Astoria Where The People Worked Long Hard Hours Six Days Or Sometimes Six And A Half Days At Very Little Pay And No Benefits. Where Drinking Was Done On A Regular Basis And The Bars Were Filled Every Weekend. Domestic Violence Ran Rampant In Those Days And Was Never To Be Considered A Crime My Role Model Were Usually Men Who Smoked Drank And Got Into Fights Since That Is What I Was Used To Being Around Not To Mention The Influence Of Money And The Easy Way To Obtain It Which Certain People Knew How To Do. A Place Where You Learned Take Care Of Yourself And Become Hard Or The Streets Would Chew You Up And Spit You Out Like You Were A Piece Of Bad Meat
