Mark has had life events that many of us will only dream about. It's sad to see someone that has had the opportunity to experience the things he has pictures of get so twisted up. I hope he gets the help he needs before anyone falls victim to the scams.

I would love to see Africa and to hunt the new Zealand mountains, but I am just content with being able to tell the truth most of the time and help others when I can. Nothing fancy about being normal, you may want to give it a shot mark.
