I can see the Sea of Cortez from the Centre of the Universe(Nepal)! That still mysterious Baja Peninsula is calling...

Phill Michael prepares to serve up  many Dorado tacos to many, many people in November 2010! B^P

Michael Fishbach was cavorting on the Sea of Cortez this past February and March (2011). He sent his report to me on Baja time...so it will be posted in Baja time...shortly...

Mmmmm...I miss the smell of the salt water...the thrill of the 'hook up'...and having a surfboard as an essential element of a Baja peninsula experience. We'll have to return to her welcoming shores...sooner rather than later...and lap up her sweet goodness! B^P

Until Soon

One of the comforts of the Kathmandu Valley...Super Suman serves up fine Newari food! B^P


Phill Michael, Shishir and Yubaraj cold chillin' at the Kathmandu Guest House! B^]

Every Full moon or so, a MotoManchi has to leave its Comfort Cave and return to Shangri La...or equivalent place of worship...to re-acquaint himself with what it's like to be living at the Centre of the Universe under Sweet Chandhrama!


Master Gelu in his element...CDMA styley! B^)


KTM shaves are soooo goood! B^]>

Master Gelu and I are about to cast off the pleasures of Kathmandu and walk into a wet Wilderness for a few weeks. 'Swell-ness' abounds! B^]


Gelu Sherpa, Phuri Sherpa and Phill Michael under the watchful eye of the Guru Rimpoche.

The Climbing Sherpas are tucked away in their homes, the Web Masters are enjoying their smoky cocoons, Pure Power is being produced...and my Intuition tells me the leeches of Gorakhani are dying to draw the toxins of civilization from our wretched bodies.


All our roads lead to Gorakhani! B^)
