Ocean Training!




Ocean training is some of the most interesting training in the world. Of course, temperature is always an issue. The human body, on average, looses heat 25 times faster in water than in air .... brrrrh! So, it all depends on where you train. Here are a couple of playful pictures ... once the real work was done. Taking off my mask and regulator at 60' was fun ... the nearby barracuda (not pictured here), not so much fun. Can you tell by the reef where this was taken? Hint ... not in the US! Who knows where I'll be next! Life is an adventure ... live, laugh, swim, bike, run and have fun! Life is just too short to let the little things stop you from getting all you want out of it!!

Divorce and The First Amendment

I am pleased to announce that The News Press published my article - a link to it can be found on the left hand side of this page - regarding divorce and the First Amendment. Domestic Judges have a tough job. They constantly seek to balance time honored, sacred constitutional rights against the best interest of children. We should all thank them for their service.

New Articles

The Fort Myers Press has reviewed two of my articles... one on constitutional law and divorce and one on CHIME -China, India and the Middle East and has decided to publish both of them in the future. I will let you, those who are interested, know when they will be published and I will do my best to create a blog discussion regarding the issues. I will look forward to your comments and critiques. Thank you.

COMING SOON - An Article on CHIME

What is CHIME? It is an acronym for China-India-Middle-East. Essentially, some think that China is trying to re-weave the "silk road" along which goods flowed in the 13th Century. The article will discuss potential socio-economics of such a policy/plan. It has been accepted for publication and, once published, a link will be posted here.

The Injustice of Justice - Opening

Now, in consideration of this new project, the opening should go something like:

First, I would like to thank all of those who supported me.
There are too few to name. Second, this story is NOT based
upon the truth. Indeed, great literary care has been taken
to avoid shocking the moral conscience of the reader by telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God.
I have completed most of the initial character development and a couple of chapters. There are also several publishers already interested in the story! I may show a few "teasers" here as this project develops!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all! I hope the New Year brings to each person (yes, I really mean "everyone") good health and unprecedented prosperity!

The unscientific and imperfect survey taken on this page regarding interest in reading a book on the Injustice of Justice revealed that 88% of those who responded were interested in reading it. Thus, it is now a "work in progress."
