For Those Want to Live a Life they are Mad to Live

You see that crazy chick in the picture over there? …Pretty sweet right? That would be me, kickin’ ass and takin’ names and looking sexy while I’m at it. It’s a lot more fun and uplifting to view the ups and downs of life’s adventures as a fearless leader than as the other dude in [...]

To my fellow Mad Ones who are living each day like they’ve got a reason to be here, this is a bit more of a letter from me to you. I try to be as real and as true to myself as I can be in my life. I’m happy to be on this ride [...]

I ate a handful of fried bees in China once. Right after that I ate that I swallowed down an enormous fried worm the size of my ring finger. And following that I of course took a gigantic swig of water and wished my stomach the best of luck. Moments before the crunch in my [...]

The delicious delicacy of local craft beer has taught me three very importantlife  lessons since arriving in California to begin this Mad Life Roadtrip of the West Coast sponsored by FoxRentCar: 1.)

If I were to ask you what’s your definition of truly living your life to the damn near fullest you could ever possibly live it, what would you say? Would you say something like, “If I’m really going to live my life to the fullest, I need to do it ALL, and I’ve got no [...]

“So, you want to change the world? Who do you think you are? Do you know how much awful crap is going on in this world? People are starving, killing, beating, dieing, thirsty, overly fat, overly skinny, hopped up on pills, stealing from one another, bitching about nothing. You think you… one person… with one [...]

There she is… that badass chick with long blond hair blowing in the wind, smooth sunglasses on making her look all kinds of cool, and sun soaked skin even though she always puts her 45 on. She’s cruising around the globe… maybe just around town where she lives, maybe from one side of Thailand to [...]

It’s important that we ask these questions though, because our lives would be boring as hell if we took everything at face-value. But what about questions aimed at ourselves? What about the ones that [...]

Okay, I’m just going to go ahead and say it… I don’t care how much “untapped potential” you have. It means nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero.
