I do like the outdoors and nature. I dont like the naive view. I like the real thing. Sometimes it can be scary and sometimes it hurts. I still like nature. I like wilderness. Camping in North Georgia is quite nice. There is a alot going on as usual, at work and at home. I think I am going to sell the humvee. I dont need 5 cars. I have some more work to do to it, but after I get what I have planned done. Its gonna hit the road. It will still take me awhile with my current level of productivity and the number of projects I have in flight. I will be up in NY again soon probably and I have travel plans currently to Maine, New Hampshire and Japan. I am making vacation plans mostly in the Caribbean. That is the push to get us over 100 Countries. I also still have to get to Wyoming, to finish off the 50 US states. I did yard work today. Mostly weeding before it got hot out, but also grading. I ran the Bobcat after the dirt settled more around the house as part of the drain/vents I had p...

I need to fix the archive issue with my blog. I really have to add the RSS feeds. (blah blah blah more projects Argghh!!!?/ ). I probably should drop out of school and devote more time to the web world. I see some cool stuff to get going. How things change. Earlier in my life I would drop out to pursue things. Now, I stay in not to pursue things. It is priorities, basic priorities. I will have to start posting more pictures soon. There is so much happening. I just got a chill. Bonnie says that happens when someone walks on your grave. It is windy and cold out there. It was 50 Above yesterday. I really hate the wind (so do the llamas). It seems that wind is one of Mother Nature's recycling devices. First from the north for 12 hours then from the south for 12 hours. We give up already.

I was thinking about some of the best speeches the world has ever known (Disclaimer: English language, recorded, rich media, history). One that always comes back is the one of Martin Luther King Jr,. Of course, Winston Churchill and our great U.S. Presidents are right in there too. Fantastic! Most people do not realize that he (King) was killed (look up assassinate in the dictionary) shortly after he gave this speech. Consider that fact as you listen to this audio (about 19 minutes, scroll ahead to the last 6 minutes or the last 3 minutes for most of us people on a busy schedule. Just make sure you understand the "if I had sneezed" reference). It is worthwhile. I apologize for the real audio format. Many people do not realize that RA is a demonic format. Toastmasters Note: Listen for when King confuses 1200 Miles with 1200 feet. He moves through the speech fludidly and without reflection. Skill. He moves on with confidence and grace. Written Transcript. I have a drea...
