Sky Diving
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a bit of an adrenaline junky. And by a bit, I mean that it is a total obsession. That being said, when Ford offered to let me go skydiving, I jumped at the chance (sorry for the pun, I couldn’t resist.) Personally, I couldn’t believe that they are asking me to do some of the stuff I’ve always wanted to. It’s pretty awesome.
I went, and...

To kill an animal
I recently did my newest Ford Fiesta Video at Save a Dog Inc.
This is a homeopathic, individually run, volunteer based shelter. It is quite different from what the ASPCA has to offer.
One of the important things about this place is that if you don’t mesh with your adoption, they have a return policy. They have an individual stance on vaccines, and are generally concerned about the animals...

5 Restaurant Reviews
My apologies for not updating this sooner; the day before I left for my Roadtrip (An Epic Journey: The Frank and Tollar Story) I did my third Fiesta Movement video. I did 5 restaurant reviews of 5 of the most creative restaurants in Boston. I decided to review them on 3 Different Scales, and average the scores. The scales are 1 being the least desireable score, and 5 being the most.

A Long Time Comin...
Sorry for the lack of updates. Nashville and on has been a whirlwind. I’ll try to recount all of the events as best I can. In short, I’m sitting in Kerem’s living room in LA.
Nashville was in my rearview mirror at about 4pm on the 15th. We headed west as fast as we could. The temperature hadn’t really risen.
Jake and I blasted through Memphis with no regard for the town....

VICTORY! →
Well, we did it.
Yesterday, the MTA board voted to repeal the scheduled toll hike in Massachusetts. Amazingly enough, it took only the afternoon for the blame to be shifted. Suddenly, people were under the impression that the toll hikes were stopped, and instead, the sales tax was used. This is, of course, ridiculous. Of the projected 1 Billion Dollars in revenue, the turnpike will only be...

Wai Kru had 7 fighters last week at CFX’s Rumble in the Jungle.
Wai Kru had 7 victories last week at CFX’s Rumble in the Jungle.
The fight of the night was undoubtedly Wai Kru’s Ibrahim Tody against Jason Sarbacker. Ibrahim, whom I may have mentioned in earlier blogs, is a student from Chechnya. He is stoicly quiet, and sat silently, leaning against the wall before his fight....

Life, Death, and Everything in Between
I might have been one of the last people to see a man alive tonight. Last I saw him was through the mangeled steel labyrinth of his smashed up car on the side of his highways. I ran out of my car to help, but an off-duty fireman was already there, holding his hand. He was trapped… Let me backtrack. I’ve been in DC for a few days working on Stop The Pike Hike. Spencer and Troy needed to catch a...

Adventure #1
So Yesterday was a blast. Josh Woolf, my old Emerson buddy and I went for a drive in his hometown. It’s amazing how interesting some of these places are. We visited his hometown of Newton, which actually is shared by none other than the man with the plan, the 5 star general of the Red Sox Nation, the Big Papi, David Ortiz. We saw some old places, a church that had been converted into condos,...

Behind the Camera Again
Well, It’s been a pretty exciting week for me. I’ve been going to the gym a lot and just trying to get myself back to a place where I am compeitive.
Kru John held pads for me last night. I guess its not a huge deal, but for me, just looking at it, its something that he has never done before. I’ve worked bag with him, but never before has he actually held pads. He told me that my...
