"Huellas y Horizontes" now available on Amazon!


My dad's book (previously announced in this post) is now available on Amazon.com! If you speak Spanish, I highly recommend this read. It chronicles a two year period in his life (1964-1966) when he embarked on an adventure to travel around the world on an old Indian Chief motorcycle.

He suffered many hardships, including being caught in the crossfire of a Bolivian revolution, being chased by the FBI in New Jersey, instense heat/cold/hunger, and a few accidents.

If you don't read Spanish, stay tuned for the English version, hopefully sometime this year. I am working on the translation...a slow but very rewarding process. Kindle versions will also follow.

Zazzle's Friday Caliente!

On Friday, July 24th, 2009, Zazzle held a little hot sauce and spicy food tasting party. We brought in hot Hooters wings, which ended up being the least spicy thing there!

Hot sauces ranging from mild to OMG WTF were tasted. And Eric brought in his own special recipe...homemade fire he calls W263 (it's about the hottest thing I have ever tasted!)

Check out the vid!

My dad's book is published!


My dad wrote a book in Spanish, called "Huellas y Horizontes" ("Tracks and Horizons"). It's an autobiographical story of a trip around the world on a motorcycle in 1964. Very entertaining read! I designed the cover art and helped him publish it online.

The Spanish version is now available through CreateSpace, and soon to be on Amazon as well. I am currently working on the English translation.

Down 1.6 pounds even after tailgating my butt off at the Giants game this weekend! That's a total of 34.8 pounds so far. I'm wearing my 38 jeans that I haven't fit into in a long time. I'd love to get back into 34's, but I think that's still a long way away! :-)
