I’d like to thank of course my father and Jeff, without whom I would just be singing to myself in my bathtub and underwear at 3 AM. This opportunity to speak my stuff has been really killer to say the least. I guess I’d like to thank the entire world, without which I couldn't have turned out like this. Everything that you see, every person and color and every smell and emotion shapes what you grow to be. I always see babies in airports or parks and make a weird face at them, knowing that a person will grow up one day with a forgotten memory of me that will shape who they become. We are all in this together, and if we take the time to appreciate the good in this crazy world, we might just get something out of it, or better yet, leave something behind for future generations to learn from. Thanks to AEIC for this great opportunity to get my message (whatever it’s worth) out there. Hopefully reading this or listening to my simple tunes inspires you to DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO WHILE YOU CAN STILL DO IT. As Thoreau puts it, "Olympus is but the outside of the earth everywhere". Peace Love and Exploration, my friends.
