You might like these two thought provoking quotes from books I’ve read:

1. “If you are not willing to talk about the impossible, then you are planning for the inevitable." from The Cognitive Rampage, (http://amzn.to/2kUgBWe) by Adam Lowery

2. I’ll bet you didn’t know that…. “Ripples are created almost instantly and die away as quickly when the wind dies down. Waves require the wind to blow over a bigger area and will not die down straight away if the wind stops, but will within hours. Swell is the name of the waves that have enough energy to travel beyond the area of wind.” from How To Read Water, (http://amzn.to/2kUcgSQ) By Tristan Gooley (John’s comment - There are plenty of goodies in this book on how to observe all kind of bodies of water, and make predictions on weather, water depth and more….)

A bonus….

“Good ideas taken to extreme become bad ideas.”, by me (John)

Said a similar way, “In excess, most things take on the characteristics of their opposite. Thus: Pacifists become militants. Freedom fighters become tyrants. Blessings become curses. Help becomes hindrance. More becomes less." from The Tools of Titans, http://amzn.to/2kxr6xJ)by Tim Ferriss. (John’s note – Anything by Tim Ferriss is a winner)

Enjoy!

You may have seen that funny, quirky & irreverent guy on TV, Anthony Bourdain. And some of you may know that he wrote a provocative book Kitchen Confidential, (http://amzn.to/2b2tmHX) which offers an insider’s look into the secret world of restaurants, and their kitchens. I checked it out give I eat out often - probably too often... When I read it, I was surprised that Mr. Bourdain was kind enough to mix in a few pointers on some tools of the trade that you can use in your h...
