I have been absent for many reasons. The most important reason was to establish a foundation. I am nearly there and am now coming to the foreground with a shining passion and light that will illuminate the days weeks and months to come.

For those of you who are interested, I have an idea that will need all of your help to accomplish. To be clear the help needed is not your money. Money is but a means to my end. I plan an epic adventure and your "HELP" will be to assist the coordination of it not to fund it.

I will make it happen regardless of funding. Money will come from my work, every spare penny will go to making the impossible come true. I want to put on my own OCR for challenged individuals.

What do I need you ask? Many things. First off a team of people who are willing to commit a few hours per week. If that is you call me 561-797-0104 and I will fill you in. If you are the wait and see type, call me when you feel ready to step into action and you are more than welcome.

Just a heads up for the next 5 weeks to come..

More to be posted soon.

Love you all

Superman Rises!

Ladies and Gents,
Superman Walks Project has adopted its incorporated parent name "The Hero Within Foundation, Inc." ( The Hero Within or THW )

For those of you that do not know. THW is the parent company founded to acquire the 501(c)(3) and umbrella Superman Walks Project so we may expand and branch out to other cities and states. SWP will continue its projects under SWP name but will be governed and managed by TWH.

I want to delegate authority to trusted individuals to manage the foundation funds and most of the decision making so I can focus on the individuals of my projects and plan for bigger events. My positions on the trusteeship will carry just the one vote and will need the majority vote to have funds disbursed for SWP to carry out a project.

THW currently has 2 trustees that manage the delegation of funds for SWP to carry out the projects many of you are already familiar with. I am Executive Chair Trustee (ECT). Mr Richard Marino is Vice Chair Trustee (VCT).

We have asked 2 very special people to join THW as the other 2 trustees to create balance and fair control of ALL THW funds. There are 2 trust committees, A & B. ECT is A, VCT is B, This split is to prevent any one side from monopolizing the Foundation and Delegation of funds.

January of 2014 we will be announcing the 2 new trustees, 6 new board members, 2 new interns & if all goes as planned the acquisition of our 501(c)(3).

Some really amazing things are coming for THW & SWP. I am so excited to unveil a massive project we are currently planning and coordinating. It is an event that SWP has never done before and will create ripples in this world of ours that will be remembered!

I will post new updates as they occur. I am currently helping Superhero Scramble build their Waldo race and they have been kind enough to hire me on for this event so I may earn some much needed "personal funds"

Much love and respect to all of you that have remained patient with SWP to line all it's ducks up in a row. I must admit I have always been overly ambitions and shoot for the stars before building the rocket. That is just a part of who I am and will always be. With help from this group of amazing people, THW & SWP will attain new heights and surpass all expectations.

Remember,
Live With Purpose
A Life Without Excuses!

Ladies and Gents,
Please send Matthew Pizzuto your warm wishes to get better soon. He is catching a cold from the change in weather and was having a rough day today. I gave him tons of natural vitamins and supplements to help his immune system fight the bug off but he was taking it hard as he has a very long week ahead of him.

I had him go to bed earlier today and he has been out! Dinner is cooking (baked bbq chicken, slow simmered rice, cut greenbeans in a paprika ginger sauce, mixed steamed veggies & a pineapple cake for dessert.)

For those of you that do not know, Matt is staying with me again for Phase 2 SWP Training Program. He has had to tough it out with a very strict schedule, diet, tough workout routine, prosthetic training and pain tolerance training.

When he got here he could barely do 15 squats and 20 pushups. He now is up to 200 squats every other day, 100 pushups & situps every other day, balance training, warmup exercises, vocabulary & speech schooling and 3 hours of work 6 days a week.

It is amazing how well he is doing. So give him your support and send him a kind word or two if you will.
