Read the L.A. Times syndicated story about the quintessential under-achiever, Zuma Jay Surf Shop owner Jefferson "Jay" Wagner.
At 54, Wagner has been a hobo, Hollywood stuntman, pyrotechnician, weapons expert, Marlboro man, champion sailor, model for Ralph Lauren and Banana Republic, reserve sheriff's deputy, lover of several supermodels and actresses, surf instructor to Britney Spears, author of a book on surf wax [on Pablo's Book club list!!], owner of six acres of shaded canyon land just off Pacific Coast Highway and a man whose life story hasbeen optioned by Universal Studios. Now he is running for City Council in Malibu -- because he is angry.
For a fun show, click on "The Man" link in Zuma Jay's web site. Also, Surfer's Village has an interview with Wagner and some good pix of Jay, like this one of him rinsing off after fighting the Malibu fires.
