My social life is pretty much non-existent. It’s not so much that I am anti-social … rather I no longer have the patience to deal with the average social entity. I hide in my cave, my social activity basically limited to exchanging benign comments about the weather to anyone I happen to encounter while walking […]
One of my goals when I originally set out on this journey was to take a LOT of pictures. Photography has always been one of my passions, but as my skill (and the technology) improves, so does the passion. Why else would I carry a good 15 lbs of extra photo equipment in my pack … […]
As we traverse this crazy adventure some affectionately (or drearily maybe, depending on your point of view) called LIFE, we constantly encounter challenges of varying difficulties. These will range from “did something just happen” to “if their IS a god, please call ALL of your heavenly heroes back from leave cuz I need some serious smiting […]
I have an Adonis-like physique. In the interest of modesty, and to keep groupies from invading my peaceful neighborhood (translation … wake the dead), I cleverly mask said physique with a mass of flesh that is the envy of even the fittest of pears. How do I maintain my glorious figure? First there is my […]
A lot has happened since I chose to embrace my own version of sanity. The world continues to show me how wise a choice that actually has been. Between advances in technology actually causing the human brain to shrivel up (how else can we explain willful ignorance with such an easy abundance information), and the […]
I have once again not posted here in a while. Ironically it is not from a lack of humor to be found around me, but rather life these days has become so laughable it is hard to narrow things down to one little set of words. Between our governments showing us that being a power-hungry […]
One of the oddities about writing a blog based on life is the more one actually “lives” said life, the less blogging they will do. When that blogger actually has a whole gaggle of blogs, it becomes even more of a challenge. Ironically the one blog that probably has the most subject matter … the […]
[mapsmarker marker=”31″] This journey has always qualified as exploring the unknown. Even when I was under the delusion that I would leisurely walk 2200 miles with nary a sweat, I truly did not know what to expect. But I have to admit, ending up in Ohio never even entered the realm of far-fetched possibility. It […]
Yep. I am still in The Void. But while I existententially explore, I have also decided to at least deal with the technology issue a bit. I went and got myself a cheep computer, and now I can actually do things with my pictures … and maybe even write regularly. In the mean time, while […]
[mapsmarker marker=”34″] “Why am I out here?” Ultimately, every hiker will be asking themselves this question… most likely after a particularly bad or painful day. The funny thing is, at that moment in time they may not even know the answer to that question. We all start the trail with our reasons; our own justifications […]
