Welcome to the online home of me, some guy given the name John Cleveland Payne. In the grand scheme of life, I am just another guy with another blog. But to myself, and hopefully to all of you who actually read this, I am something a little more special. From a young age, I fell in love of the idea of ‘the message’ and medium in which you try to transmit.
Basically, everyone has a message to give to the world. Some are basic, some complex, some have the power to up lift and some are just out there to bring as many people down as possible. But everyone has a message, and most people have problems identifying their message. And the ones who get that far can seem to figure out how to get the world to listen.
Well, I have a message, and this is where I will get a chance to share it. Hopefully, you’ll get plenty of things to keep you motivated or inspired, provide knowledge and comfort, and just have a little fun. Apologies for the state of flux and state of seemingly confusing messages that you’ll get here for a while, as I am doing a lot of personal soul searching, and scrubbing of old ideas to take the best of the past to build a new beginning.
In 2007, I changed the name of blog from “The Mis-Adventures Of The Jazzy Cool One” to “Life In Fast Forward.” I began to tear down old blogs and newsletters and try to find places for them here. My goal is to take the focus off of me the person, and show the world the life I live and share with every human on the planet. I aspire to life at a very high standard, and instead of dealing with people who rather slow us down, I want to find ways to help people pick up there own pace. As you get to see an insight to the further adventures I hope to lead, hopefully you’ll enjoy the ride, and want to come along.

Rethinking Impossible Missions, Or, Here We Go Again...
And since I can’t do anything the easy way, here is my current gamelan for Simulations Impossible Missions:
1) Reclaim the dream of a professional bowler’s life - life got in the way of my bowling practice, so I am even further behind in that goal, but that’s not stopping me from getting back on track...
2) Read like a fiend – I’m want to average reading a book a week next year, but I’m going to cheat a little bit by making my goal 52 books by January 1st, 2010, which gives me the last 5 weeks of 2008 to bulk up my total. I will cheat even further by reading a lot of short and totally useless books...
3) Pay to run like the wind – The River City 5K is July 18th, 2009, approximately 9 months for now. I should be able to get into good shape by then, especially with all the bowling I’ll be doing right...
And you follow all the insanity that is my attempts to make these things happen, assuming I don’t go on 3 month drought of postings…like that will ever happen...
