Aloha Friends,

About Joe

My name is Teddie Joe Snodgrass and I'm the original Hawaiian Joe which I established as my web name / pseudonym or fictitious name / stage name several years ago in 1992. To learn more about me you've arrived at the right place.

Those other individuals that have a "Hawaiian Joe" presence on the web are all infringing on my Trademarks and Copyrights illegally by both the US Government Patent & Trademarks Office and the State of Hawaii Government - Department of Commerce & Consumer Affairs. I've owed the rights to the "Hawaiian Joe" presence on the internet now for nearly two decades and would sincerely appreciate the pirates to Cease and Desist their activities. They can own their Hawaiian Joe Domains of various sorts, but cannot legally use them for marketing purposes of any kind. They only degrade their integrity by piggybacking off the work of my efforts as well as the efforts of countless other honest companies they also legally rob from.

I'm a professional copywriter, network marketer and a critical care health care professional. I've been writing now for over 35 years and have maintained a presence on the web since it's inception. I'm currently heading into nearly 400 websites as of this web page is being formulated.

I write and create websites on any and all topics that attracts my interest. Building websites is a hobby I enjoy doing when I have the time. Plus, the revenue from the websites are not bad for a hobby.

You can get more information regarding my works over the past few decades at a new website I'm currently bringing up called Hawaiian Joe Publishing. It's somewhat like a sitemap, that's subdivided into 35 different sections, that will eventually be a directory to all my websites and works throughout the the past years. I try to add to it daily in some section. Just be patient with me for awhile - I'll get it all updated as time permits over the next few months.

I sincerely hope you will find some real value that helps you with your interest as you surf any of my sites that you're currently seeking information on. One of my favorite programs I like to recommend to any family is my Hawaiian Joe, Inc. Prepaid Legal Protection Plan and Business Opportunity. This is a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (PPD) and worth it weight it gold should you ever need legal representation. In addition to Family Plans, Small Business Owners can benefit enormously with our Small Business Plans. If you may be interested in starting your own small business and marketing my Prepaid Legal Service Plans as one of my Associates then just click here.

I've been an entrepreneur, network marketer, copywriter and a Healthcare Professional for more than 35 years. I've written programs and designed training for such organizations as the United States Air Force, United States Army, private companies and others. I currently have over 20 years Federal service with the Department of Defense.

I have over 35 years of information systems and design experience and a health background in Cardiothoracic Surgery.

I'm a Registered Nurse currently employed with the Department Of Defense and a freelance copywriter specializing in direct network marketing. My annual earnings from my online business entrepreneur endeavors are substantial.

I received my bachelors from Valdosta State College in Valdosta, Georgia which I believe they changed their name a few years ago to Valdosta State University. I earned a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) in Management from Golden Gate University in San Francisco, California and a Masters of Science in Nursing from Concordia College.

I'm a Professional Travel Consultant mostly specializing in the Hawaiian Islands and Las Vegas, the author of numerous e-books and have published 100's of articles on health, travel, network marketing techniques and any topic that currently strikes my interest on any given day.  I recently received the 2009 US Commerce Award for the best travel business in Honolulu, Hawaii.

With nearly 400 websites I instruct others how to market effectively on the web by providing mini courses on various topics on many of my websites. I maintain my own hosting company at Hawaiian Joes Island Hosting: www.Go-Joes.com

I've appeared as a guest on TV and radio shows, worked with raising funds for chartable organizations and coordinated countless blood drives for the American Red Cross in times of need.

I work with law enforcement officials in sponsoring free "Child Identification" campaigns to help identify children in cases of wrongful abductions.

I also work with local communities in raising funds for free community programs that has housed over 25,000 people in one gathering.

Basic Background

I was born in Southwest Virginia in January 1955. I often tell people jocularly that I started my traveling career at a very early age when my very first traveling adventure took place at age 6 (1961) and landed me in Brooklyn, New York to live with my mother.

There, I attend Public School 140 for a couple of years before returning back to Virginia to live with my Grandmother who pasted in 1993. The most salient thing I remember about PS 140 was November 22, 1963. If you don't know what happened that day, then it's best to just let history be.

Many of my summers were spent with my Aunt & Uncle, on his mothers side, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. My uncle was a Union Organizer that required him to travel extensively throughout the Southeastern United States and I use to tag along to see new places and meet new faces.

Many of my uncles clients were nurses that I remember. I still recall vividly those days when we would drive for over 400 miles or more, have a one-hour meeting in some clinic, and then start the return trip back toward Chattanooga.

In the late 1960's I began my high school years at R. B. Worthy High School in Saltville, Virginia. I mostly favored math and science with most of my free time spent in the local Pool Hall in Saltville learning the art of hustling.

Another Aunt on my fathers side was also a Registered Nurse and I remember looking up to her many times because she always knew what to do when someone became ill.

Toward the end of my high school years, I headed back to Brooklyn again to work as an Assistant Manager of an Automotive Supply Warehouse. My Step Father, Frank James (Hot Dogs) Germano (a.k.a. Porky's Germano in the boxing arena to figures such Jake LaMata, Rocky Marciano and others) got me the Assistant Manager's job through some Italian connections. Anyone interested can get a rare glimpse of Frank (Hotdogs) Germano in this book by clicking here. Before his passing a few years ago, it was reported to me that Frankie was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame at a new museum at Coney Island, New York.

I resided in Brooklyn, New York until I was 21 at which time I returned to Virginia for a few months before entering the United Stated Air Force about a year after my son Chad was born. My son Kevin was born at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina after I entered the Air Force.

Immediately upon entering the Air Force, I returned back to school at nights and on weekends taking classes in the science field again with courses in biology, chemistry, math, and a new thing that was hitting the scene in the 1970's - computer science. However, at the time I was directing his attention mostly toward the medical field.

Call it luck, fait, or whatever....but, somehow the United States Air Force placed me into the Information Systems field and I starting working on mainframes and writing training programs and training personnel in a formal classroom environment starting at base level while assigned to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina.

Very quickly I was pulled into the Strategic Air Command at Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha, Nebraska for three years to work with a new computer system that required a top secret clearance.

Still going to school nearly every night pursuing degrees, and working full-time, I was presented with the privilege of working with some of the best systems personnel in the world and was assigned to Headquarters Air Force Military Personnel Center at Randolph Air Force Base, Texas for over four years from 1982 through 1986.

In 1985 I received my first degree from the Community College of the Air Force in Resource Management and continued to plug along with my educational endeavors until I received my bachelors from Valdosta State College while assigned to Moody AFB, Georgia in 1988.

After spending over 4 years at Randolph AFB, Texas, I headed to Osan Air Base Korea for a year to manage a computer system there. While assigned at Osan Air Base I recall working some very rough days and I took a year off from school during that period of time from July 1986 through July 1987.

From 1987 to the later part of 1989 the Tactical Air Command at Langley had drafted me into Moody Air Force Base, Georgia to test a new $650 million dollar system that the Air Force was planning on implementing world-wide. Our team working on this enormous project later received a Presidential endorsement from our 41st President George H. W. Bush.

I continued studies further for a Masters degree in Management. After departing Georgia, I was assigned to Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho to bring up the system I had been testing and debugging at Moody Air Force Base. While assigned at Mountain Home I was afforded the opportunity to go to school full-time to seek my Masters degree. In April 1991, I received my Masters Business Administration (MBA) in Management from Golden Gate University in San Francisco, California.

In July 1992 I departed the Air Force with over sixteen years active duty time. I took a break for a few months and started back to school this time directly into a Nursing Program that I had been trying to accomplish for over two decades.

It was very difficult during my Air Force career to concentrate within the medical field simply because most educational programs offered at most Air Force Bases were all business and management type courses.

After obtaining my degree in Nursing I started working directly on a Cardiothoracic Surgery Unit doing open hearts and working with various types of cardiac patients to include Coronary Artery By-Pass Grafts (CABG's), catheterizations and robotic surgery patients.

At that time I was a staff member with a major hospital in Southwest Virginia which was over 150 miles away from home. The hospital would put me up in a nearby hotel from Friday - Monday every weekend. After a year of living in a hotel, it became very old very quickly. I attempted several times to negotiate an apartment or other accommodations, but for some technical reason, the hospital refused to do it - which never made sense to me whatsoever. They would pay for a hotel every weekend, but would not pay for an apartment or permanent housing which would have been considerably cheaper.

Nevertheless, after a year I started some travel nursing adventures. I worked at several hospitals in South Carolina working with Cardiac and Renal patients. Landed in Hawaii working with Cardiac patients and Renal transplant patients. Back to a hospital in North Carolina in Critical Care Services. From there I landed at Duke University for nearly two years doing Heart and Lung Transplants in addition to the regular open hearts and cardiac catheterizations.

Before leaving Duke University I did work the pulmonary floor for several months with ventilators and patients requiring continuous pulmonary infusions for their illnesses. Still keeping up with school I received an online Masters Of Science in Nursing from Concordia College in 2004.

After leaving Duke University itself, I moved out the front door and across the street to the Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center. There I was assigned as Charge Nurse for a Medical Surgery Ward. It was basically a catch all floor of all kinds of surgery's. Mostly orthopedics, but ever now and then I would catch my favorite patients which were Cardiac in nature.

The nice thing about working for the Veterans Affairs in Durham  was that I was working with some of the same doctors I worked with at Duke.  In addition, the VA gave me back those 16+ years Air Force time for Federal retirement purposes with the US Federal Government.

After working for the Veterans Administration for about a year in Durham, I transferred to the Department Of Defense in Hawaii. I'm currently assigned to the Critical Care Services Area and perform as Charge Nurse.

I also moonlight for private individuals and hospitals throughout the Island of O'ahu. A lot of times when I moonlight I work various Emergency Departments at local hospitals. If I'm not in an ED somewhere,  then I'll be monitoring Cardiac patients somewhere either within an Intensive Care Unit or Telemetry Unit. 

I also hire myself out to private individuals for those who want to pay the price. I value my time at $400 per hour for medical services and get $300 per hour for my professional copywriting and consulting services.

I will, and do travel for patients and or families to meet private needs. My clients pay all expenses in advance, including travel and lodging which I book myself because I'm also a Professional Travel Consultant. My healthcare time is hired out at $400 per hour but never less than $2400 per day. I mostly only consider working nights from 8:00 PM to 8:00 AM.
