Jesus Iberra, your nuts. that looks nothing like my Brother Chuck Galkin !!!
I’m adding in some years had he still been living. I knew Chuck in the 80’s.
Surprised he’s not in for violation of NCO. At least it’s something new this time.
Maybe it’s his son…
@Jesus-when did Chuck die? I grew up with him but hadn’t seen him in years. Jimmie Rhodes has been in and out of the drunk tank for years. It’s to bad because he is not a bad guy when he is sober, which isn’t very often. Some day we will read that they found him dead in the ditch somewhere.
From the contact that I have had with Jimmie, I doubt he could get into any respectable ditch in the area.
@LVS, 2004. Google Chuck Galkin and read the story.
Looks like Chuck Galkin, only he died.
