Sharkwater FTW
Sure there’s a few rare incidents of them attacking humans
but the same is true of lightning
and lightning strikes are actually more frequent than shark bites. If Spielberg had created Zappers instead of Jaws, about how frequently people get struck and killed by lightning would there be a greater fear irrational fear of the atmospheric discharge [...]
I Don’t Use Beds
One interesting fact about is me that I don’t sleep on beds. Since 2003, I haven’t slept on a bed. I started this practice while studying spider monkeys in the yucatan jungle of Mexico. Obviously, we slept in tents in the yucatan and there were no mattress beds in the tents — just the refreshingly [...]
Yeah…I’m Totally 100% I Followed Movies in order to Coach Actors
http://www.yahoo.com/s/1081179
Carradine’s death and Heath’s death in early 2008 (both suicides) shows that actors are unhappy. They need and are lost and confused. I’m 100% convinced that the reaons for following film and studying acting for a bit was to eventually Coach actors in areas of fulfilment and health and performance and meaning. [...]
Schwarzenegger: Keep Our Beaches Open! Move Towards At Least Commensualistic Symbiosis
Dear Governor Schwarzenneger,
(From John Thomas “Kooz” Kuczmarski)
I’m a strong believer that the purpose of a city should serve Nature. Nature — wildlife, animals, we homo sapiens ARE Nature — should be the intention of anything municipal, or city-based. Therefore the idea of actually closing beaches, closing a way for humans to enjoy nature (the ocean [...]
Is Everything for Romance? Even with Successful Careers

I saw a darren brown and david tennant clip (for darren’s tv show) and I relized that they went out into public to have a woman draw a picture and david was supposed to have predicted what she’d [...]
Heroic Journey of My Coaching Process
First off I noticed that the ICA Coaching Process Diagram resembles Joseph Campbell’s Hero of a Thousand Faces 12-phases of the heroic Journey. Joseph campbell is an author of mythology and kind of mythological dissection. He went back and scrutinized myriad myths and plugging in some Jungian archetypes extracting some archetypes, he extracted [...]

21st Century Mythology: The Best Hero is Flawed, 2-Sided
Recently read this great article and it sparked some interesting ideas. Superheros are only identifiably heroic when they can connect to other humans! Otherwise, they’re just alien. The most secure way of making that connection, honestly, is flaws. Batman’s troubles over his dead parents, Ironman’s drinking problems, Maxwell Smart’s stupidity [...]
Society Vs. Culture
In his famous book, “Future Shock”, Alvin Toffler wrote, “Society is a wave. The wave move onwards, but the water of which it is composed does not”. In other words society is warped; something about it isn’t natural, it isn’t right. Waves cross thousands of miles of open ocean fetch expanse, carrying [...]
True Love Is Psychotic
True love, that genuine rare art form, is ultimately psychotic. Learn to love the wild. Embrace the rifts, tides, and currents of that change. Create your unknown and then live to understand your reality. Truth is subjective; discover your own wisdom and comprehend the desires of your intrinsic beauty. This [...]

Common Denominator: Phillip K. Dick
Alas, I cannot speak from the “literary front lines” of PDK as I have not read Androids nor Scanner, but have seen both film interpretations (Blade Runner and linklater’s). If I ever get around to reading PDK amidst the hundreds of other books on the to-read list, I think I’ll like Scanner the best, [...]
