Work is Dangerous *True Story Sunday* [06:38]
In the US Army there is a "Culture of Cowardice." It feels like everyone has been trained to cover their asses and lay low for 20 years so they can get out and collect their pension.

So when I would get in trouble for working hard in the name of safety, and no one would care when I went and sat down for the rest of the day it didn't make any sense to me.

nicaragua : guasacate beach [00:16]
this is guasacate beach in nicaragua. taken in sept 2011 from the large rock formation at the north end of the beach. the weather started to clouding up just before i shot this, so that's the dulling effect on this video. guasacate beach itself is a beautiful 1+ mile long beach on nicaragua's pacific coast. it is just north of famous surfing spot popoyo beach. hard to access in comparison to other more popular beaches, it takes a few hours on unpaved back roads, the ambiance of the area is A+.

nicaragua : guasacate beach [00:26]
this is guasacate beach on nicaragua's pacific coast. it is just north of popoyo beach, a popular surfing location. video was shot in sept 2011 and taken about the middle of this 1+ mile long beach. guasacate itself is a beautiful hidden wonder in nicaragua. accessed via a 2 hour or so ride on dirt backroads, it is harder to reach than many other popular beaches. the break it fairly strong, so it is not an ideal swimming beach, but the ambiance of everything is A+
