Tom, James and I would all like to post, so the road trip diary is moving to 10000miles.tumblr.com. Follow it there!
Hello friends,
I have decided to try to resume blogging in anticipation of one of the greatest journeys in my life, nay, in American history. Myself, Thomas J. Lawless, Philip J. Daniel, and James M. Wilsterman will set out tomorrow on a cross-country road trip that will redefine the genre and surely lead to one of us killing another out of frustration before the trip is over. But no matter.
Our route starts in Boston, Massachusetts, and ends in Boston, Massachusetts. In the middle is Pasadena, California. To quote the great William Shatner, “YOU do the math.”
On the East-to-West leg, we are planning to hit, in order:
Boston
New York/New Jersey (Pick up James)
DC (Pick up Phil)
North Carolina
Atlanta
Bonnaroo (Manchester, TN)
Jacksonville
New Orleans
Dallas/Austin/San Antonio
West Texas/New Mexico
Phoenix
Pasadena
The West-to-East leg is less definite, but should basically include:
San Francisco
Yellowstone
Mount Rushmore
Minneapolis
Chicago
(Detroit?)
Cleveland
(Buffalo?)
Boston
Please let me know if you are in any of these places over the next month. We would love to see you. I will hopefully post photos etc. documenting the great adventure. Wish us luck!
Sincerely,
Maxwell L. ‘Ramblin’ Man’ Child
To re-inaugurate the tumblr
I would next like to see a map of the country of “what” that includes its official language.
Max Child, it’s now up to you to reblog.

The more you know, the less you say ‘what.’
In the spirit of The H is O…a classic of the genre.
Might possibly be available to those who are interested, have iPhones/touches, and are nearby enough to physically connect their phones to my comp.
