http://maarten.typepad.com/brusselsblog/2004/11/thou_shalt_not_.html

Musings from a dad working from home. November 05, 2004. Thou Shalt Not Kill" = racist. Via LVB: Tolerantie (1). In the Netherlands, artist Chris Ripke reacted to the murder on Theo Van Gogh by an islamic fundamentalist by painting a mural with the text Gij zult niet doden (Thou Shalt Not Kill), one of the ten commandments of the Christian religion. Video of the event, here. It has come to this. Also, the moment they make a move to put ideas into practice that harm others, it's a whole other ballgame&#46...

Hobopoet: Going Mobile

http://hobopoet.blogspot.com/2008/08/going-mobile.html

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Well, we've arrived at last! Two years of work, with some play thrown in. and now we're ramping up our mobile lifestyle! Just recently got back from a trip to Mexico with Tomoe- this is a picture from the Baja coast. I was surprised to find that the water is still cold all the way down there! I was expecting balmy tropical waters- but the ocean felt quite similar to San Francisco's. During his entire 9 day stay, I ...

Hobopoet: The Fruits of Freedom

http://hobopoet.blogspot.com/2007/11/fruits-of-freedom.html

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Friday, November 16, 2007. The Fruits of Freedom. After several months of transition, I have finally settled into my new freedom. I know it sounds strange. It sounds strange to me. Who would have thought that when I finally achieved liberation from wage slavery, I would need an adjustment period. How can I be bored? But still, something was holding me back. Then slowly, week by week, it became more real. Along with this, I'll be doing a lot...

Hobopoet: Bliss

http://hobopoet.blogspot.com/2007/12/bliss.html

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Thursday, December 13, 2007. Most of us love quotes like the one above. We've all read great words about "following our bliss" or "following our genius" (Thoreau). and we've nodded our heads. We love the words of Emerson, Alan Watts, Jack Kerouac, and other free spirits. We love the IDEA that following our bliss will bring happiness, prosperity, freedom, fun, etc. For years, I fought with these beliefs. My chosen route was to first prov...

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Sunday, April 13, 2008. Free Your Mind First. OK, so enough of the depressing reality of the TV programmed "good citizens". You want to know how to free yourself from that hell. Let's get practical. Here are Skald's easy steps to mental freedom:. 1 Unplug the TV. Cancel your cable service. Destroy the satellite dish.

Hobopoet: Everywhere and Nowhere

http://hobopoet.blogspot.com/2013/07/everywhere-and-nowhere.html

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Wednesday, July 03, 2013. It was all pointing here. to the inevitable: A fully nomadic life. As of last year, I am a full time traveler. My preferred mode of travel is to spend 1-3 months in one place, then move on. Bored with backpacking and tourism, I prefer to have something to do or learn in each place. I started on Maui (Hawaii) where I learned to kite-surf; which turned out be be quite a challenge! Thoughts of Basho came to mind. ...

Hobopoet: The First Key to Economic Freedom

http://hobopoet.blogspot.com/2008/04/first-key-to-economic-freedom.html

Neo-Nomad, Neo-Bedouin, Do Nothing Do Everything Sacred Drifter. Tuesday, April 08, 2008. The First Key to Economic Freedom. I must admit I find the whole slacker/hipster "scene" annoying and pathetic. I'm a full-fledged convert to inspired laziness- and my hatred of wage slavery is well documented. But I still despise the Cult of Cool. In essence, The Cult of Cool is a belief system (aggressively marketed by big business, by the way) that values cynicism, criticism, and shallow posturing. Hopefully you ...
