Yeah, I’ve gone overboard (pun intended) on the whole shark thang, but I’ve recently gone eyeball to eyeball with an even freakier ocean denizen. Seriously, this abnormality has given me nightmares in recent weeks. After living in Cali nearly 10 years (well past my personal deadline), I finally made the trek to the world-renowned Monterey [...]
Alas, I’ve yet to make an Oscar speech, but I had my own version of glory today when my shark article made it to the AOL Welcome Screen (once the “most valuable piece of Internet real estate,” as the Mother Ship told us drones, but I doubt it is any longer). When my Oahu shark [...]
After several months of waiting, I finally get to see my great white article on AOL Travel. It’s on the front page today, and it’s supposed to be on the Welcome Screen Monday, so I’m hoping it’ll get a lot of traffic. For some reason, they used a generic photo rather than my brilliant one [...]

Just yesterday I was explaining to my technically challenged mother the importance of Googling your name every few weeks.

Yes, many of you thought I’d return with missing limbs — or at least a few digits. But here I am, as intact as ever — physically, if not mentally. I’ve got some kickass video of my shark dives, but unfortunately my camera made all the files .avi, so if anyone knows how to convert [...]
The Seattle PI just published my piece on underwater adventures in Oahu. Check it out:http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/getaways/288156_hawunderwater12.html Not too shabby. A few edits here and there, but otherwise, the editor didn’t touch much. Just wish he’d suppressed the urge to add that damn exclamation mark.
