2017 Goals Overview



Thanks man, I love to shred. I think I will introduce my babies, they all have sentimental value and a back story.

6 miles ain't **** haha

Cheers brother!

Love the fast necks and of course the sick aesthetics

Thanks, same to you!

I think I could do a few guitar technique vids, that might be fun.
I know the introductions might seem worthless but what about people stumbling on my vids for the first time?
I agree some sick degen stories could make for good vids. By the way you should come on for an interview man, I know youre against sharing strat but I think people would love to hear about how you went from posting up at Foxwoods to living the dream in LV.

What Am I Reading?

Mountains Edge Park

Announcing The Poker Player Volunteer Organization's 2016 Volunteer of the year

Thanks, will do!

30 min a night is 180 hrs a yr (only got in 120 hrs last yr). Small amounts add up quick when you establish daily habits.

Do You Have to Go to the Gym to Stay Fit?

Running from Fremont Street to Mandalay Bay and back along the Strip

My Plans for Creating Videos in 2017

I really enjoyed your "Running on the Las Vegas Strip" video. That was a neat way to see some of the sites on the strip and Freemont from a new perspective. Tremendous job on the endurance as well!

I liked the "What am I reading?" video also. I can't recall all of the books that you were reading, as I was in my cup a bit, but Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is quality read. Really insightful, and lead me to a few other works as well. I was turned on to Zen and, by a book called Sacred Hoop, which was written by former NBA coach Phil Jackson.

Have you ever read Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse. It seems like a book that you might enjoy, in my opinion.

Saw you in trooper's video today.
You and Trooper need to find a bass player and drummer. You both sound great.

What ever happened with your ticket/court date related to blocking a pedestrian bridge with humongous guitar (or maybe it was the amp)?

keep up the good work enjoy your videos.

I decided to make a few guitar lesson vids, thanks for the suggestion ECGrinder

Yeah that was a good 12 mile run, glad you liked the vid. Gunna knock out a 14 and 16 miler then roll it back a little bit for the 2 weeks before the Sedona Marathon.

Zen is cool book, I like the style and cool insights.

I'll check out that book when I get a chance.

Thanks! Case was dismissed, I'll take that as a sign I wasn't doing anything wrong. Will do!

Take Troop on a 12 miler

Here is a short timelapse of painting with a palette knife on a small 8x10" canvas

I don't think a could carry anyone more than a few hundred feet, let alone 12 miles Maybe I could handle Yoda...

Running to Boulder Highway and Fountain Show

Love these threads and I really enjoy your videos too Carl

Travel Goals

Thanx dude!

Running From Red Rock To The Strip

Man, that's long even to drive, since it's my near daily commute, lol... but the fact that you are running this???

Crushing it man! Marathon won't have anything on you! Gogogo!

Healthy way to enter the twilight. Happy Birthday!
