A Reluctant Activisit
Despite the fact that I stand up for my beliefs firmly… These conversation on Facebook I had, leaves me feeling hopeless… Despite any solid argument, people will let their emotions and religion overrule free reasoning and logic, ethical and moral common sense…

Unfortunately I’ll be back in Switzerland May 1st, so I won’t be able to attend the free concert, but check him out and if you dig his music too, be sure to check him out at...

Getting To Alert
For the first time in my life tonight, I’ve pondered this strange question… How exactly does one get to Alert, Nunavut (the most northernly permanently inhabited place in the world)?
I’ve always wanted to travel to places that few others have gone; you know, like Antarctica, Svalbard, Alert, Siberia, and random islands scattered throughout the oceans. There’s something...
