Bad parents set their kids up for failure later in life if they don’t get clear boundaries and expectations for behavior, and turn family-friendly places into adult-unfriendly locales.

Billabong held it’s 5th annual Design For Humanity on the NY Street Backlot of Paramount Studios, now otherwise referred to as the Surfer/ Surfer lovers carnival for big kids.

As the girl in the Toyota in front of me cuts me off at the 5th street exit, I momentarily consider releasing all of the the expletives I am thinking. And then I imagine walking into yoga and seeing her next to me on a pink flowered mat. Uhh…. Namaste to you too…

Travelling is thought by many to be the epitome of freedom. Every day a new day, a new place, a new face, maybe even a new lover. But like so many things, it’s not that simple. Like addiction, a once free choice can take us to places darker and more tyrannical than we have ever known.
