When I am not flying around the world on covert operations, near gored by a yak on trail in the remote Himalayas, lending my body to science so that hot UofA med student could study me at the base of Everest, loving my tennis elbow while kayaking around Antiparos, free falling out of aircraft, munching grubs with Germans in Thailand, landing face first in a pile of rocks outside Pamplona, taking aim at moving targets, and/or swilling vodka to seduce high-ranking political figures gain access to private information...I am wandering the world with a backpack slung over my shoulders. I'll get back to cooking five course meals and throwing dinner parties with shots of tequila courtesy of Vicente Fox and vodka martinis Gorbachov would envy when I arrive in Mexico and Russia in 2007.
