I have a passion for sailing larger yachts, blue water sailing, long distance.My businesses are interesting to me,there is a lot of good I can do.
I invented a Coconet - see www.coconet.cc and won the 2003 Australian Invention of the Year. Coconet Promo
Add to My Profile | More Videos I have been busy as trying to make it all happen because people all over the world want them - scary.We are called Coconet International.
Also created the Coconet Classic - wow hasn't that gone places already - soon to be in Bowen and Fiji - then maybe Tahiti. Coconet Classic
Add to My Profile | More Videos I also own and run www.armflame.com which is one of Australia's Premier Gas and Poly Pipe instalers. We specialise in coal seam methane extraction, for clean energy, power stations, and city natural gas reserves.I do travel a lot, and not really in the capacity as a tourist. I am the type that needs 'something to do or a reason to be there'. I know east coast Australia VERY well, Fiji, New Guinea, Christmas Islands, Cocos.
Ayers Rock (Uluru) is an awesome place - climb that and you know how fit you are - but awesome.
Barrier reef I practically lived on it all my life, rain forest in and around Cairns, Port Douglas - that is what I call home town area. Love animals, people and really enjoy discussing all sorts of interesting things in the worldI abhor ignorance and conversely love intelligence. That doesnt mean smart it means intelligent - a 10 year old kid that figures out how to put a ladder beside the kitchen table to get a biscuit intrigues me, that is intelligent. TV virtually shits me, news is depressive and annoying because it highlights the inadequacies in humans.ABC runs some interesting things like New Inventors or talk back shows, otherwise I dont watch it. Interestingly I have no TV on one floor of our house, the floor where we eat and sleep, TV distracts conversation and turns humans into zombies effectively. OK if you want to veg out sometimes,, thats all. We are a blight on our own planet really. The ingenuity of many will save the masses I am convinced.waffle waffle waffle.... Coconet Classic 3

Hey I went to China , specifically Shanghai and Beijing, The Great Wall, Forbidden City, Hainan Island (for coconuts of course) and saw how massive that awesome place is. We westerners (especially Australia)havent got a clue how massive and populated places get. They are an amazing race. Recently went all over USA. Space shuttle program was amazing, Houston, Galveston, LA, Vegas, San Fransisco, Atlanta, Fayetteville, Daytona, all sorts. Great people, great place, I will go back one day for sure.
I'd like to meet:
I love meeting anybody and everybody. I dont have anyone in particular that I 'really need to meet'.
People that have a great attitude, get on with life, respect their elders, love their kids and cherish their friends, thats what I like. No time at all for drugs but alcohol is a drug too isnt it... mmm better rephrase that.
Music:
Ranging from AC/DC,Jon Bon Jovi,Uriah Heap, Aerosmith Metallica, Supertramp, Nickleback, Greenday, JBT, Blues, Soul, some (some) country /western, basically all sorts. Anything that is sung with absolute passion and feeling, not just blurted out.
Movies:
Best film ever to me is Shawshank Redemption.
The Last Castle, Brubaker, Cool Hand Luke, The Green Mile that sort of genre I like. Also stories like Apollo 13, Castaway, Armageddon that sort of thing.
Rob Roy with Liam Neeson is so well put together, the casting is unreal, they nailed it.
Television:
Not really into it much at all, too many things to do.
Books:
I wrote this book to give people a 'down home truth' about patents, what to do and what not to do - persistence and all things one needs.In my BLOGS you will find the 'back of the book' - what it is all about. It is self published and we sell them ourselves till I find a distributor. $20 dollars and $10 post and handle anywhere in the world.
Heroes:
There are heroes in all walks that I aspire to, a lot of them are unheard of and live just around the corner from you or me.
