EVIDENTLY, I'M THE DEAN..

Look who's on the home page of FUEL.TV. The kind folk over ther contacted me about doing a photo feature on their website and by golly, Its live. Erik Jernberg, a writer for Fuel, even wrote a nice little essay about me and my history. At one point he even refers to me as the "the dean of wake photography." Yes, by definition, thats a leader or senior member of a group. That sounds special.

Big thanks to Erik and everyone at Fuel for making it happen. The dean is very happy.

Below the link i've posted what I originally sent to Erik to write the article. Its just some one liners, but i think it really sums me up. If you've even wanted the cliff notes on my history, then here they are.

THE DEAN! If it sticks, I am claiming it - as having said it first. And it will stick.

Great article about Dean Letchworth.

Hopefully, I can attend a class taught by such a highly respected professor.

BTW, nice mention of Flagler College too.

Hey I love the blog. I've been looking for more information on Cranial Salt Lake and I was wondering if you have any good tips or pointers? I'm getting ready to move and I need all the information I can get. Thanks!

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Now, I'm happy and lucky , I started to get real money.
It's all about how to select a proper partner who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the income with me.

You may get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
