New Diversions

God Bless 'em

So its been some time since I uttered some words on here let alone a bathroom stall. I feel as though I may have neglected my time of self serving expression, so be it.

Things have been quite erratic lately, I cant seem to find the time to do the things i love most in this world. This past weekend I was in the Keys getting my work on. The gigs were copacetic but the only intriguing part for me is the drive to and from.










We played two nights in KW which gave me a day to roam around. Carlos and I rented bikes for the day and went out hell raising a bit. We hit up the Fort Zachary Taylor site, cruised through some trails, and toured the old city.






Yes, cruisers with cute little baskets, how thoughtful of them. I asked for the streamers but as luck would have it they were all out.





You sure do



A cleared out, quiet, dirty club. Just the way i like it.



In no time, I was headed home again.

The Steve Zissou Expeirience

Although I didn't set out to exact revenge on the "jaguar shark" that ate my partner, I did manage to see some pretty magnificent things 60 feet below. I completely underestimated what i would see down there, rookie mistake when diving with creatures half your size and can take a limb in one bite. Truth is, words couldn't possibly describe what i saw down there and the species I encountered. I can only say though that i felt extremely humble and fortunate to experience a world where not many can or would want to for fear of the obvious.



Fact. Don't ever purchase one of those cheap disposable underwater cameras, out of 30 exposures 2 where of decent quality. So much for capturing the underwater world.



So here it is. All the accounts that I've heard, the parables that have been told, everything leading up to this day, forgotten in one tense, apprehensive breath. The Great Blue Hole. Just in case you're to lazy to click on the link and inform yourself on the creatures that reside in this hole, allow me to fill you in. Sharks, sharks, and more fucking sharks!



I was told three things prior to jumping in: always keep tabs on your partner, always watch your back, and always stay cool. Its too bad my partner didn't hear that before he effortlessly jumped in. He proceeded to take a thousand pictures of cute little Nimos and colorful coral. "Hey guy! how about you look to your left and watch that 10ft man eating fish swim right by you." I knew I was in an environment where I shouldn't of been and for the first time in 27 years, my life flashed before my eyes. What else was I to do but...



You only live once. Write that down.
