Mark in a fitted black V-neck T-shirt, black jeans, his sailing-ship forearm tattoo, a black watch and black-and-white Nike sneakers, seated beside CiCi, his little white pomsky. His home office has a black L-shaped standing desk, a Tampa skyline across the monitors, floating shelves, a wood bookcase, cassette and The World Is Yours posters, and a framed picture of Warsaw's Palace of Culture and Science.

I'm Welcome to my little corner of the internet. That fluffy face beside me? That's my trusty sidekick, CiCi. Make yourself at home. Take a look around my desk and browse The Art of War or The Meditations. Or if you feel like being active you can take CiCi for a walk, go racing in Tampa Bay in my boat, or use my Jeep to help surfers catch the waves!
