Well, I do have a few bare spots on my walls. They all can’t be filled by photos…

Jason, I didn’t get to participate in any farewell parties that may have occurred at Continental, so I’m wishing you all the best on your next career moves via this special blog comment. Cheers.

Awesome mon!
Seriously –
It’s always an inspiring moment to watch someone following what they believe.
I so admire the guts it takes, and wish I could grow some.

Many of us come from a honored line of people who chose and taught to ‘play it safe’.
Now looking back however, it’s hard to say if we were ever really happy, nor could we honestly claim something vivid to mark our lives…
It’s so easy to get mired in self-inflicted ‘duties’ and at the end become nothing but slaves to the hope of ’safety’. Mice huddled against potential disasters, dispensing dire warnings to make timidity seem like wisdom….

Do you thing J!
Life is for the living.
May be we can follow your example … to some degree … right after crack-cocaine PTA lunch

PS. If all else fails – interesting ’scars’ make for good stories. It’s better to say “once, when i was painting on a plaza…” than – “once, when i was an accountant…”

@Banks: Thank you for stopping by, I am not sure if I would be scouted for anything other than smack-talk on the hockey side, but we will see. You’re in DC now?

@Pat: As your unofficial manager, I will use all the powers of my mustache to help promote your work.

Great to hear that you’re following your dreams! I’m envious, but lucky that I’ve been able to keep doing things I like and stay employed in the process. Keep playing hockey on the side, though, I hear NHL scouts are always looking for unknown draft picks at Chelsea…

@Rachel: Thank you! If you would like a link back to your site, please email me the details: jason@borbay.com

@Gazza: I wouldn’t downsize your cajones, having left the life of a rich man in Dubai to teach underprivileged children in Caracas is nothing short of bowling balls (American Size.) Thank you for checking in, I hope to see you and meet your fiancée soon.

Fantastically inspiring philosophy on the ‘ one life, live it’ theme…..I look forward to hearing great things about you….and as u say if all else fails, you certainly won’t have for following your chosen path……there will be no ‘if onlys’……..Gazza
