MISSING



Last reported seen in Agonda Beach, Goa, lying
in hammock on the deck of a flimsy plywood beach hut.
If you see this man, please bring him a nice, cold Kingfisher
beer.
Identifying marks: a big grin.



Happy Holidays from Goa!



In other news from my busy life, I have just finished reading Shantaram, a really wonderful book, that i can very highly recommend, despite its 900 pages, it was truly engrossing and fantastic. There is rumor of a movie version with Johnnie Depp in a few years, if youre not the reading type...this is the summation of a great novel....

For this is what we do. Put one foot forward, and then, the other. Lift our eyes to the snarl and smile of the world once more. Think. Act. Feel. Add our little consequence to the tides of good and evil that flood and drain the world. Push our hearts into the promise of a new day. With love: the passionate search for truth other than our own. With longing: the pure, ineffable yearning to be saved. For so long as fate keeps waiting, we live on. God helps us. God forgives us. We live on.
