Captain, who is driving the ship, Microsoft?I want a boat that drinks 6, eats 4, and sleeps 2. I got a cruise ship instead that drinks,eats and sleeps 3,200. I agree with Joseph Conrad: There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.&nb...

My Wishbone Is My Backbone

My Attitude Is Still  Getting Me Altitude!In 1971 Schlitz Beer commercial‘s on my B&W TV depicted adventurous men diving for gold, sailing the 7 seas. “Go for the gusto! ... you only go around  once in life” Note to self: The earth school kills all of its students. Life is like rowing out to sea in a boat that has a hole in the bottom. Have as  much joy and fun and fulfillment- because success without fulfillment...

@Sea-Emperor's New Suit

Despite  budget cuts, the light at the end of the tunnel is still on There are three sorts of people; those who are alive, those who are dead, and those who are at sea.Going out on the open water is  the infinity of hope, the preview of life's coming attractions where you have final cut in your own movie.  You can lose yourself in the ocean's food for thought. Its  menu is the meal,  and itineraries...

Unique New York-All You Need Is Britto

There are over a 100 museums in New York, and I didn't have to visit one this afternoon. The sidewalk is not my runway, the world is not my canvas, but Manhattan's  street  space  is my gallery without walls.Matisse channeling Picasso by way of Hello Kitty is the best way to describe pop artist, Britto. He's everywhere in South Florida, and brings a little Miami sunshine to midtown Manhattan today.It's about optimism, love and hope...

Halifax-The Write Place

Write? Right! I like writing. I just don't like the paper work. Pulp-free fiction-blogging is literature in a hurry. Today we are in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Before I started sailing, I didn't even know what street Canada was on. In fact, Canada is like a loft apartment over a really great party. Like: "Keep it down, eh?" Canadians are nothing more than unarmed Americans with great health care, a nation of people who came from somewhere else. There's...

Manhattan Project- NY is The Bomb

The whole object of traveling  is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land.My mind keeps repeating this simple mantra: New York City is awesome! So awesome that the city of hyperbole and superlatives has 98 names. (see below).I, on the other hand, am not better than New York. I am, however better than I used to be. After all, doing things right the first time is an obscenity. Growing old...

Sweden-The Power Of New

Travelling is like flirting with life. It's like saying, I wanna  love you, but I have to go; this is just the way it is.Welcome to Sweden, with  a reputation for extreme winters, the safest cars on Earth.(see my SAAB story) and ABBA.  I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to the Swedes than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is...starting with a bike tour.Stockholm has...
