The Art of Blog Writing
I have been trying to maintain my this blog and write as often as I can but it is a very personal type of writing and it takes a different kind of motivation and head space. The thing is I like to write and I come across all kinds of fun things on the web […]
“We beat the Reaper by Living Well”
I feel cheated that I never heard of Randy Pausch before today, the day of his death July 25th 2008. Randy Pausch was a Carnegie Mellon University computer science professor whose final lecture inspired millions, who passed away today of pancreatic cancer. I just watched and listened to this famous “final lecture” and was truly […]
My Hobby is Heart Break
Things that are “hard” are better, cooler, tougher, more manly, and more righteous than things that are “easy”. I think this is some footnote to the puritan work ethic I was raised with, and I am fairly certain that it has caused me more grief than satisfaction.
Recently I have decided to take my longtime love […]
They don’t tell you broken ribs can lead to a serious case of ENVY
Its’ been almost 3 weeks since I broke 3 ribs and bruised my lung in a dirt bike wreck chronicled in my Previous Post, and I am finally sleeping laying down and getting life back to normal.

Roller Coaster Life
Life is always busy and crazy for me but this week might take the cake as the most up and down week in my life. Monday I get up and start my day early wrapping up all my work early so I can enjoy an evening of motocross action. While I am sure it […]
Frontier Airlines, the Greyhound of the Sky

A Friendly Reminder
That is me and my good friend Adam Sitta in Wollengong Australia 10 years ago. Adam, a native Aussie, and I met while I was studying abroad and we still talk today some 10 years later. In Australia we were either traveling, surfing, chasing girls, or planning our future travels. We were going to see […]
There is no Starting and Stopping, only Doing
A new year and a million things I am going to do better; stop eating junk food, start working out more, stop buying crap I don’t need, start writing more, start finishing the books I am reading, start making more time for friends….
THERE IS NO STARTING AND STOPPING, ONLY DOING.
Do something good today people.
This Song Kicks
I have been reading lots of these best of 2007 music lists lately to see if there are any gems I might have missed on the music scene this year. I am a music consumer from rock ‘n’ roll to rap, indie and alternative to electronica, you name it I will give it a listen. […]
From Where comes the Dare in Daredevil
What compels daredevils to do the things that they do? I could pretend to tell you I know because I have tried some scary things in my life, I have jumped out of a few planes, climbed some tall ribbons of ice, raced a motorcycle, and even stood on the roof of a moving car. […]
