Attractive Girls Union Refuses To Enter Into Talks With Mike Greenman
Often, when I web search, I tend to tangent off to different hyperlinks, or links, which lead me all over the web. Often this time takes away from the work I am in process of doing, which is not usually a good thing. This one, however, was actually worth it, as it gave me a glimpse into another person’s life, which I thought was worth it.
today’s tangent:
I was looking into time management software, and am currently testing out Things (http://culturedcode.com/things/), which seems pretty good so far. I was reading comments about this program, and did a search comparing productivity programs for the mac. Which lead me to the Put Things Off productivity blog (http://putthingsoff.com/), which was showcasing the OSX Task Manager Showdown – iGTD2 vs Inbox vs OmniFocus vs Things (http://putthingsoff.com/osx-task-manager-showdown/). As I believed, or hoped, Things was the winner.
Anyway, Putting Things Off has a nice design, so I looked into the designer of it, which is Goburo.com (http://goburo.com). On their showcase page, they showed a site they had designed for Tim Brownson, a life coach based out of Florida. His site is A Daring Adventure Life Coaching (http://www.adaringadventure.com). I had read that he was a certified life coach, and wondered how one becomes certified in life coaching. According to his About page, he is certified in the UK and US. I then scrolled down to see more info on life coaching, and saw that there is a site called Coachville (http://www.coachville.com/home/index), which is an online coaching community and online training program. I read some stuff on here and went back to Tim’s site, and noticed that there were some testimonials for him. One that caught my interest was from Jason Cunningham, who went to some Anthony Robbins events and decided to try out a Tim as a life coach. I decided to google Jason Cunningham and noticed that he has a wikipedia entry, but in turn it was not for that Jason Cunningham, but rather an Air Force pararescueman who died while in battle in Afghanistan. Here’s his wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_D._Cunningham).
What a terrible way to die, choosing to be more of a healer of soldiers than a soldier, being injured while saving another comrade, and dying from that injury while waiting for a chopper to rescue him. It’s a nice posthumous record of someone’s life, although it doesn’t list his life before the air force.
There is a link at the bottom of the page to an Air Force magazine article about him, of which I went to here (http://www.af.mil/news/airman/1102/world.html). On this page below his photo is a caption about the training he undertook to become a “PJ”, or pararescueman. The grueling details of that training, an example of which is that you have to actually drown in a pool and be revived, are in an interview with Jason entitled “Superman School” (http://www.af.mil/news/airman/0200/pj.htm). His response: “Once you pass out the first time, you get used to it,” said the 24-year-old from Camarillo, Calif. “It’s like — it hurts, it hurts, and boom, you’re asleep. Then you wake up, some-body’s slapping your face, and you’ve got this oxygen mask covering your mouth. It’s really not that bad, no big deal.” Amazing.
And I suffer over getting out of bed and going to the gym…
