About My Site
This site was originally built to share pictures with the grandparents and I’ve now extended it to promote people, ideas & systems that have really enhanced my life. Since that time I’ve survived two near death experiences, graduated from the Hakomi Institute, and started a neglected BLOG. “Shallow, boring, and in complete denial”, (yes, that’s me) is my observations of the human condition & the resulting mismatch with our cultural institutions. I’ve also uploaded “Muddy Green Water"---an audio feed about my experiences while lost for 5 days in Kilauea Volcano’s National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii. The BLOG & my “Adventures” page includes audio interviews, video clips, pictures and links to some of the many news stories.
For those who are into self-discovery & mindfulness, this site will help you find charities, survival schools, cutting edge mental health resources, Tantra schools and more.
My television debut was initially on GMA, the Today Show & Fox news. Later, the Discovery Channel created a re-enactment of the story which began airing on Saturday, March 11, 2006. It’s called “The Year’s Most Dangerous Survival Stories.” More recently (Sept 2006), Peter (see below) and I were invited to appear on the Montel Williams show and that program is scheduled to air November 16 (2pm in Austin).
