FAQ’s
Q: What do you do exactly? Are you a dancer? An actor? Director?
A: Yes. :) I am a lifestyle artist and digital explorer. I pay my bills as an .. consultant.
It pays me enough that I can work part-time, and then spend the rest of my time on digital projects. The projects, in turn, give me experience so that I am useful as a consultant…
And so on.
Q: Why Pink?
A: Pink is the color of hugs.
Pink is the color of love...without the aggression of red.
Pink is often associated with girls and gays...I am neither. I like that it makes people question assumptions.
Pink is vibrant and bold. You can’t be a wallflower with a traffic cone on your head.
We are all pink on the inside.
Q: Will you be my friend?
A: HELL YES! It would be an honor. I consider the myspace universe to be a huge meeting space where people with similar mindsets can connect. If you vibrate like I vibrate, I would love to stay connected. I am allll about Digital Intimacy.
NOTES: if you are the myspace admin for a band, product or company, I probably will not add you. Feel free to add me as yourself, however!
I'm also probably gonna delete any 'chain letter' comments ('send this to 6 friends!!').
And if you leave me "Help me win a free IPOD!" comments, I'll block you. Nothing personal....just not what I think this place is for.
Q: Are you gay?
A: I am sexy to the core. I’ll sleep with whomever I am attracted to. That is almost always women, but I’d rather not be limited by a label.
Q: What’s with “The PBC”? (www.pinkbroadcasting.com)?
A: The PBC is my one-man TV station. Ya see, My dream is to be an independent media mogul.
When I first heard about the internet 10 years ago, I visualized everyone with our own TV stations. But technology and bandwidth weren’t ready.
We are FINALLY on the brink. So I am like a pig in muddy zen as I wrestle around with social networking and broadcast technologies. I love this shit.
Anyhoo… I have been doing a personal broadcast of sorts (see: cockybastard.com) for a decade. And now my TV network is REAL.
I produce 2 regular (weekly or more) shows that are distributed globally on Veoh Networks (TV quality) and as Flash internet versions on myspace, veoh, & youtube.
I feel blessed to be alive in such an age. I’m tickled pink.
The PBC Fall Shows:
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone open to love, freedom, and hope.

with non-doing there is happiness. And that's my whole teaching: don't do anything. Let things happen -- don't be the doer. Don't think much of the past, of the future. Don't think much -- be in the present.
Buddha has a special word for that state. He calls it'chittakshana' -- a moment of consciousness, a conscious moment.
For consciousness, one moment is enough -- for thinking one moment is not enough. It needs the whole past, it needs the whole future. The present is not enough for thinking.
To spread thinking you need a very big canvas of the past and the future. In fact the present is so small for thinking that thinking cannot exist in it. Hence -- just as a corollary -- misery never exists in the present because thinking never exists in the present. To think, you have to go back or you have to go ahead. To be miserable, you have to go back or you have to go ahead.
In this moment it is sheer delight! It cannot be otherwise because in the present only bliss and consciousness can exist. That's what Buddha calls 'chittakshana' -- a consciousness moment. And once you have learned that there is no need to be afraid, because it is always only a single moment that comes into your hand. Life never gives you two moments. There is no provision for it. Nobody is given two moments together. Only one is given -- when that one is taken then another comes, but you always have one moment.
So buddha says,'If you can transform one moment you have known the very peak -- you can transform the whole eternity. Nothing else is needed.'
Is the only thing there is. Tomorrow again it will be right now. Tomorrow exists not -- it is always right now. If you are happy right now, finished -- the samsara is finished. You have gone beyond it, because each moment that ever comes will come as right now. And if you know one secret -- to be happy right now -- you have learned all! There is nothing else . . . there is nothing more
Thinking can create misery any moment. Thinking is the root cause of all misery. If you think, only then can you be miserable -- if you don't think you are happy.
A non-thinking mind cannot be miserable -- that's why animals are not miserable . . . . And buddhas are not miserable. Animals are below mind and buddhas are above mind, but one thing is common between both: they don't have any mind. Animals cannot think and buddhas have dropped thinking -- they don't think -- but one thing is common: thinking is absent.
So whenever you feel that you are becoming miserable, know well that the root cause is somewhere in thinking. If you start thinking about happiness -- about why you are happy -- even that will do it; even that will destroy happiness. If you start thinking about whether you will be happy tomorrow or not, whether you will be happy in the west or about what is going to happen, you will create many ripples of misery. And not that you will be unhappy tomorrow -- you will become unhappy right now!
Once this trick is understood, once this mechanism of the mind has been looked into, there is no need to be miserable unless you really want to be. If one wants one can be miserable, but if one doesn't want then there is no need.
It is such a simple thing -- to be happy should be the most simple thing -- because happiness is natural, unhappiness is unnatural. To be miserable needs great effort. To be miserable needs much cleverness, cunningness. To be miserable means you have to earn it. It is not cheap -- it is very costly.
To be happy is very simple. You need not earn it, you need not be clever, you need not be very educated, you need not be on a high post, you need not be rich. You need not be anything: because to be happy is simply natural. You have brought it with you -- it is in-built. It is as natural as fire is hot . . . it is as natural as ice is cool. Nothing else is needed to be done about it.

Friday's Message
Today's message is one on judgement. As we are all here having a human experience it is sometimes difficult to not pass judgment upon others, especially when it's something so emotional devastating. When we view another as having done something so terribly wrong to another, it is human nature to want to see that person punished.
But in reality, when we pass judgement upon another we in essence, are passing judgement upon our Selves. Not necessarily for the same emotional, mental or physical act for which we judged another, but from the "mirror" perspective. Very similar to the words of a song that says, "I'm looking at the man in the mirror."
We must be consciously aware of our thoughts and be more quick to judge those thoughts over judging the actions of another. It's okay to disagree with what another has chosen to do, we can even not like it all, but, that is where it needs to stop. For as we continue pointing our fingers at others, we are not looking at ourselves in the mirror.
For some this can be a challenging event because usually, when applying mirrors, we see things within our own Selves that we do not like. However, know this....the Angels are always there with you and for you to guide you in implementing change to better your self, humanity and our beloved planet.
I had a dream last night that you and Andi were in. I was distressed and depressed and down and out and you guys were doing your thing putting on a show. And I wanted to help.
You had a super power. You could make things move with this zappy mind powery thing.
I was so depressed I couldn't function. So you hugged me for hours non stop and then when you would stop Andi would start hugging me and I was like AWE! I'm starting to feel better I think. but when you guys stopped it was like oh boo I feel terrible again.
I want you to know that your message does reach many people. Who need it. Like me. People who have been through a ton of crap like me and are trying to stay positive like me but don't feel like there are many people out there like me trying to do the same.
