Joe never though that he would ever become homeless, especially after working Naval Intelligence during the first Persian Gulf War, where he received the Kuwati Liberation Medal. He first became homeless shortly after being honorably discharged, where he was asked to re-enlist and then again 25 years later, due to illness, where he currently resides in transitional housing for homeless vets in Las Vegas.
Fortunately, comedy has always been a big part of his life as a coping mechanism. Joe truly believes that laughter is the best medicine.
