“I am often asked what I would have done if I were not the Crown Prince..."
Erik Logan. Getting there, etc. but can we leave spiritism behind for a moment and focus on your perception of your life now versus your perception of what you thought you’d be when you were young? I first imagined Marine followed by marine biologist followed by Bible translator.
I became a surf journalist.
Haakon Magnus, who lives in Norway, imagined himself a Kelly Slater-esque professional surf legend.
He’s set to become a boring ol’ king.
Crown Prince Haakon made the shock announcement during an interview with Norway’s NKR declaring, “I am often asked what I would have done if I were not the Crown Prince. Then I would have been a pro surfer on the World Tour. Maybe an ex-professional by the way, because now I’m almost 50.”
The piece was accompanied by photos of the very handsome viking paddling a longer board with many more at the Royal House of Norway’s own site.
Back to you, though.
How has fantasy matched with reality?

Mate I’ve sometimes been very critical of you -and Derek , often Derek ( bought his Bob bio for my mother in law,she hated it, I thought it was decent enough)
Nevertheless this commitment to uncovering the story, flying to Brazil and snooping about has really demonstrated true Grit . More impressive is the graciousness and kindness you’ve exhibited in ‘outing’ him. Ya coulda really stuck the boot in , I woulda ( sadly ,but likely I woulda).
Respect
He could have been Norway´s Brett Simpson

Ffs, listening to a king whine about his life?
Step up highness, build a indoor heated wave pool and have a go.
Kings, they have all the coin and zero imagination.
That’s completely common when your inbred
Wanted to be Ozzie Smith. Fell a bit short.

This was exactly why I loved him. When I was a little kid in the early 80s, saw him play live at a spring training game in West Palm Beach. He came out and did that flip and thought it was the coolest thing ever.
Heard Vinny call Sandy K’s perfect game on a tranny. Truely inspired, at age 9 I threw my first and last no hitter.

Tossed my final one at Bubbling Springs Park in Port Hueneme at age 12 in the summer of ’92 before the Dream Team went to Barcelona
nobody wanted to go to Williamsburg/
I wanted to be a vegan yoga teacher,
I want to be a beef butcher bonner instructor.

Even simply taking a five-minute break from your computer to step outside and enjoy a tranquil moment of gratitude in the sunshine rejuvenates your body, relaxes your mind, and nourishes your spirit.
Unlike the Beatles, Beach Boys, Monkees, and my awakened cousin Vinny, I didn’t have to travel to India to seek the big Maharishi. Nope this guy came to Humboldt St. and my mantra is…um.

fleece tapestries just begun
turn around, look up, look down…
moments lost will never be found.
green sea tubes
blue, blown skies
eyes of many shades
catch momentary waves.
best to all!

Sport of kings, there’s norway he’d be a pro, even though he’s a neppo, unfortunately not a seppo
My long list of oh so nearly achieved dreams would break the stoniest of hearts.
I wanted to move to Oklahoma, become boss of the professional ______ (whatever they do in Oklahoma) circuit, have my male employees disrobe at my command, lie thru my gleaming teeth in corpospeak like a motherfucker, don my white leather cowboy outfit with tassles feeling like armor, post on MySpace after planting the occasional shrub, then get sacked for unknown reasons.
and get skooled by Oprah/
