Still in Paris. It has been cold and rainy and expensive. Our money is worth **** in Europe. If we keep printing money We won't be able to buy a cup of coffee over here. $16 Euros for a dozen Esgargot. That is $24US or $2/snail.
Off to India in AM. I think ptices will be better there.

Very depressing place. In last 3 days, suicides, murders, rapes, kidnapping and then murdered, Taking farmers land, elephants on rampage due to loss of habitat. I am in a 5 star hotel looking out the window at people in shacks toting water in buckets. Stray dogs everywhere. Garbage everywhere. The food market is unbelievable.
I must be careful what I eat. My client was in hospital for 3 days with food poisoning

Well now I'm sitting in Bangkok airport too tired to do anything.
Landed at 6 AM and do not take off until 7:30PM
However, I will be in Sydney tomorrow morning staying at a casino on the harbor
However, I will have to fly to Perth Wed nite after 3 days of conducting sales training and start 2 days of training there. Then as soon as I get done there I have to fly back to Sydney as no flights direct to Atlanta from Perth
I have been in 37 countires in last 2 years. I love when people say to me that they would love to do what I do.
Just let me sit in the woods waiting for Bambi to appear and that is my idea of the perfct place.

I am a professional speaker and sales strategist for global corps. basically I teach co's how to kill their competition.
My stuff works so well that I have not had to make an outbound phone call for business in over 10 yrs. All referral and repeat
I had a talk show Sunday mornings on WTMA for about 6 years called "Winning the game of life"

| Next time you go to India let me know. I'm going to order new checks from Wachovia and I may have you pick them up instead of their Customer Service shipping them. Thanks. |

I hope that was my first and last time
My go back places are Alaska, Napa, Hawaii Big Island, Vegas always, Rio, Amalfi Coast of Italy, Rome, Venice, Istanbul, Dubai, Cape Town, and Prague.
Places I have not been that I want to go are Egypt and Greece and they will have to wait until things settle down over there.
Next out of country trip will be to Barcelona. Wife coming on that one
I'll post separately on that one for ideas.

I am at my Florida home now because there is a poker room 20 minutes away.I played in Sydney and Perth. Also played in JoBurg and Cape Town. I'll play a lot over next 3 weeks.
I will be back in Charleston before Aug 15 for opening day. I have Sept 15 blocked out for first doe day and last week of Oct and first of Nov for the rut. Every non-working day in between I'll be chasing Bambi on my own little piece (171 acres) of paradise.
Fishing is another story. I had Hanckel put 2 new Suzuki 300's on my boat over 2 years ago and the boat has not run since. About $50,000 later It now has been at Butler for about 4 months and still no boat.
I have won over $50k in fishing tourns with biggest being Fishing for Miracles a couple years back and not having my boat is killing me.

Then the gig after that is actually in Charleston!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Arrogant I am not. Blessed, happy, knowing that I am a very lucky guy, yes.
That post was for the many people that say they want me to adopt them.
