Paul,
I randomly happened upon your blog and spent a (much too) large chunk of the day reading it. Love you thoughts... anyway, just thought I'd recommend a book you may like. Touch the Top of the World by Erik Weihenmayer. He's blind and has done the 7 summits ~ super cool reading. Much luck on the job front.
