They say if you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere...
Who knows.
Maybe one day you'll see this at your corner news stand.

Ice Ice Baby

Snow isn't that bad you know.. It's the damn sleet that makes it terrible! As you can see, in New York we're up to our knees in snow. I guess this makes up for the not so cold winter we've had so far. We were due to get slammed by the weather sooner or later.





A fond memory I have as a kid in NY is the kind of things kids do when it snows. Besides playing the obvious snow ball matches, some of us (including me) used to eat snow. Yes, I said we ate snow. Of course this can only happen when it snows a lot and you're not eating dirty snow. It almost feels like you're diving into a cotton candy pillow. I don't recommend you go out and do this, but seeing all this snow accumulate brought those tiny memories back.

Let is snow...

Eclipse This!

The next time this phenomenon happens will be in 2010. Did you happen to see the Lunar Eclipse last night? I decided to brave the cold and take some pictures of the Eclipse. I must say that looking at the skies makes me feel magnificent.

I feel great to be part of this world, in this time and age, and in this state of mind.


The moon is barely visible as the Earth is covering the sun's rays.


Slowly but surely the Earth moves out of the way.


Can you see the little bit of light making it's way to the moon?


It's becoming clearer isn't it?


You can see that the Earth has finally begun to move out of the sun's way.


The sun starts lighting up the moon again.

So, did you see the Eclipse last night?

Less Is More

I have a tendency to appreciate the small things. My friend Gabe is on hard times right now but his little gift actually means a lot more than anything money could buy.

What you see below is the product of Gabe's amazing clay skills. He replicated a Dean guitar that Dimebag Darrell used to use. After creating the guitar by hand he had to bake the clay in order to make it hard.

Incredible isn't? Like I said, these kind of things mean a lot more to me than a really expensive gift. It shows that he thought about it for a bit (even for 5 seconds), and really paid attention to the detail.



The gift is awesome... Thanks my dude...

Happy New Year folks!

A new year is upon us and hopefully your new year has started off on the right foot. What's in store for you this year? Have you made any resolutions? Can you actually keep any of the resolutions you've made?

I can't say whether or not I have any resolutions, but I plan on learning anything that can help me in a positive way. That just means reading books, questioning everything, and helping anyone who needs help.

The past few weeks have been absolutely incredible. I spent most of my time scuba diving and appreciating life. While in the ocean you realize that you are a tiny spec in this huge bowl of soup we call life. The ocean has a plethora of life and there is never enough time to see all of it. I've come to the realization that I was made for the ocean, and from the ocean. The feeling of weightlessness is probably the closest I'll come to knowing what it's like in space. Interestingly enough, the oceans of earth are like our universe; They're never ending and almost impossible to explore with ease.

My latest trip can be seen on my website or by clicking on the picture.
