In my time so far as a human I’ve done a lot of things and been a lot of people. I’ve climbed through Mountains in China, co-written and performed a Glam Rock Opera, built a House (electrical, plumbing, carpentry), filmed Penguins in New Zealand, helped lock my friend in a Plexiglas Box for a week, was a counselor at a Summer Camp for Mentally Handicapped Adults, welded Custom Mutant Bicycles, was part of a 700+ child Protest in India, Turbo-Charged a Miata, performed Burlesque/Striptease Acts, officiated a Wedding, and built a Giant Lite-Brite.

I decided it was time to write a bit of it all down.

Names

This blog has really been a learning experience. I quickly discovered that most people want to be recognized in these stories and I am now using full names so that they turn up in web searches. Clearly there will be exceptions when dealing with issues of a truly private nature, in which case:

Z Names

I use fake names starting with Z where it’s best to leave the person anonymous.
