I am a nomad. Living in a self-converted skoolie as well as slow traveling the world. And the one thing I can tell you is ... mistakes have been made. 😇
This one was an absolute HOOT to make! And seriously, while it was kinda inevitable that play would happen before projects, I was truly surprised at several moments in this one. If you'd like more info ...
We had a little drama last night. Maybe a mile away, just over the Mexican border, there was a huge blaze. Smoke billowing up in the air. I had no idea if it was a building or a brush fire (there really isn't much there building-wise, I don't think). So I kept checking on it periodically, seeing if it was moving.
When ...
I noticed this weird white trail in the sky to the west. Turns out it's a rocket moving slowly across (I'm 99% sure this was a Starlink ... here let me check (checking) ... yep, at 5:59 they launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California).
I feel I need to explain this photo. LOL! Down in a silver mine where I was filming today, they turned off the regular lights and flipped on UV ones to show the minerals in the walls. It also shows off my Mexican Dentist Teeth Cleaning quite well. LOL!
There is a companion video on Patreon about the up and coming video here on the main channel, as well as some answers to questions asked and promised.
Didja know I write words as well as blather in front of cameras? Seriously! I even spell most of them correctly. :-)
This channel is dedicated to showing how a life could be best lived, but there is also a scary underbelly that I don't show. Me. Personal struggles. Deep opinions. All of the stuff that YouTube says I'm not allowed to share.
So I write over on Substack. Now I know this world of needing 87 URLs just to connect with someone feels like so much BS, but here's one more link in case you're interested. And it works just like Patreon. You sign up (it's free!) and these missives of opinionated verbage just arrive in your email box. Simple!
This is Paul, he's my new coach. (He's also a bit shy). What kind of coach you might ask? Well ... a YouTube Coach, of course!
I've decided that after five years on the platform, I might need some professional help. It's a long, deep, and slightly boring story as to why ... so I'll go over on Patreon and bore them there (link's below) ... but the short answer is I don't feel like I'm giving you my best. And for almost the same price as I pay for diesel each month, I can rent a dude who can help get us there. LOL!
So, watch this space. Weird changes are a'coming. LOL!
New post up on Patreon that you might be interested in. Why I hate paywalls and will never beg for money! (ahem, don't click on the second image in this post ....)
Seriously, we're allowed to love our own stuff periodically. LOL! I had so much fun with this video. I have a new YouTube coach who wanted to know what videos I truly loved making. And THIS is the answer!
The village idiot is back! With advice and “hacks” that are guaranteed to … well … our lawyers have advised against saying “guaranteed”. They suggest the phrase “your mileage may vary”.
