A memoir (1929-2009) that asks the Question - How does an eleventh-generation Midwestern WASP climb from: .... McCarthy Security Risk to Top Secret Clearance ? .... Union Shop Steward to Company V-P ? .... 5 Years a Bigamist to his 50th Wedding Anniversary ? .... Big-10 University expelled to an NYU BS-EE/MBA / .... A $9-K cabin in the Calif. Redwoods to a $400-K house in Tuxedo Park, NY ?Answer -- Just by the Good Luck and the Bad Luck which equals -- "Jus Tuf Luk" ! His experiences expose the politics, humor, philosophy and the irony of military, educational and professional malfeasance to reach a relaxed, retired and recriminating state. The chapters are titled: The Boy, The Kid, The Youth, The Rebel, Das Fräulein, The Engineer, The Woodsman, The Dog Breeder, The New Yorker, The Wonk, The Retiree, and The Curmudgeon. In this last chapter a plan is submitted to re-invent Government.
