The "take home" here is: "Life is too short not to take up what you love." Good article.
Really interesting!
...great article, but as a veteran of the travel world in the 70s, 80s and 90s (I usually spent between 200 to 300 days a year on the road) being rewarded with more opportunities to schlep more cameras, more strobes, more cases and bags onto another airplane for free always struck me as somewhat sadistic. It would have been a bit more... rewarding, for lack of a better term, to get a weekend cabin somewhere remote and quiet enough that airplanes never flew over it...
To travel to all of those places and rarely leave the airport? That is sad in my book.
His life sounds like an episode of The Twilight Zone...
There is a possibility that I used generic aluminum foil when I made my hat today... I get all my knowledge from the Enquirer.. I just can't trust Rolling Stone after the Dr. Hook cover.
