Another self help dude.

If you have someone teach you how to help yourself, Is it really self help :?

I know quite well who he is. I'm just curious if anyone else knows him.

Is he any good? I stopped looking into all that stuff after I bought my Jeep :)

I think I might write a self help book on the joys of Jeepin'....... I think I'll call it "F'n MUD!!!!"

I've read a bunch of his books, as well as take a bunch of "self help" hippy type courses. I have never met him, but I hear he is a pretty neat guy.

I would say go!

Well I just had dinner with the guy (Dan). I am the technical director for an author's tour that started last weekend. We did Victoria, Vancouver, and Kelowna, firday-sat-sun. And I go again this weekend for EDM, CGY, and Saskatoon.

He's a lot more grounded than I thought he would be and he's a real guy. For being 60yrs old, he looks like a bowflex advert. But he's very humble and easy going. Anyways, I run his sound and lighting and arrange video details for each venue. Not a bad start for my first contract after quitting my job of 6 years.

Next up is Patch Adams in late October.

Your are going to loose all your sarcasm hanging out with all these positive people Gregg.

Mebbe you should go back to the hourly gig where you can properly scowl and growl at us all day long   :D  :D  :D

New job sounds pretty cool

haha... nice Bill.

Yeah, getting out of the corporate world is a good change for me. Don't worry, I'll hang on to a little bit of my jadded-ness just for the CJA.
