Realizing that the human body is not easily killed with psychological torture and alcohol, he knew there had to be a better place, perhaps a faraway land where songs filled the air and the warm sun brushed your cheeks --- so he migrated south to Florida and worked for the Disney Mouse. Pixie dust it was for 7 years and then…. he met a beautiful young maiden - Nina who captured his heart and continues to nurture his soul.
