My cousin, recently married, leaves Sunday for training with the Air Force. His beautiful bride wants to win a photo contest for a Valentine’s photo shoot before he leaves. Click here, like the photo and help them win.
Love - Mark and Julia
There’s a lot I could say about the photo. Great composition, beautiful dress, HOT camo heels, but most of all, the look on their faces is priceless.

I took this picture of a Buddha on a trip to Hong Kong just before Hong Kong reverted to Chinese Rule.
a Buddha in Hong Kong
Buddhism weaves in and out of my life. It’s like a shiny bracelet that I forget I own and stumble upon it while frantically searching for my keys. Oh, I forgot I had this. And I slip it on and reconnect with specific times and places in my life. Like watching the sun rise on New Year’s Day on a beach in Bali Indonesia, where the enormity of life and my karma wash over me like waves, cleansing and pounding at the same time, and I get profoundly I am responsible for everything in my life. Or I slip that bracelet on as I pick up a fallen ginko leaf from a street in Brooklyn, reminded that all things fall, all things are temporary and flutter away and exist in this moment only. The Buddha marks this page, not as a declaration of something that I believe in, or anyone should believe in, but as a reminder, like my shiny bracelet, that life is now and you are it.
I took this website down a long time ago. EONS in internet time. I wasn’t sure what it was about anymore. I was trying awfully hard to project a certain image and it just wasn’t right. I was trying too hard to be an internet marketing professional. I had niche’d out my different interests and then brought them all back together and now I have niche’d them out again. And there are things that don’t fit in the other niches but still are me. My internet presence had split personality disorder. I run a health and fitness blog and that’s just not the right venue to talk about my current fascination about brain science or internet marketing or knitting or any of the hundreds of other things I find compelling. So this site is back, let the tinkering begin!
