LOVOS – Lifestyles of Voluntary Simplicity

coach Rick — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:32:21 +0000

Thanks Kate.

My personal philosophy now has a catchy acronym – LOVOS.

… oriented to health and sustainability; and … critical of consumption and consumerism. …

Unfortunately it doesn’t really dovetail with my new religion, the Missionary Church of Kopimism.

“In our belief, communication is sacred.”

An Idiot Abroad – Japan

coach Rick — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 10:01:53 +0000

The last episode of the 2nd season sees Karl Pilkington on a mission to climb Fuji. … And to come up with an invention — inflatable pants.

I don’t know why I like An Idiot Abroad. It’s absurd. But there are little moments of brilliance.

Karl almost liked Zen Buddhist meditation. Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Almost.

Filipina with Western (older) man

coach Rick — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 10:03:38 +0000

On the resort island of Boracay in the Philippines you see many of these culturally and age mismatched couples.

I don’t blame you for jumping to conclusions.

You’re probably right.

Yet some of these couples are in Boracay to be married. Many men of European ancestry, past their prime, look for younger Asian brides.

It’s not always the case that the rich dirty old man is taking advantage of the young, naïve woman from a developing country, more interested in the bulge of his wallet than anything else.

There’s a perfectly innocent story behind some of these photos.

Bruce’s sunglasses are the original from the Born to Run tour.

Jimmy Fallon is a God. (He had to convince Bruce into trying on the wig.)

Happy Festivus

coach Rick — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 10:03:41 +0000

It’s December 23rd — Festivus.

Today is the day we forget about those having birthdays … instead celebrating a holiday invented by Frank Costanza on Seinfeld. Because Christmas is too commercial.

A Festivus for the rest of us.
