lol i don't mean literally like how he did. plus hitchhiking is illegal now :[ especially unsafe for a girl. but i would have loved to hitchhike in those days, i'm not meant for modern times. but anyway what i'll do in the future is simply see the sights and the sights no one sees, wander around on my own and simply live life. doesn't need to be unsafe by hitchhiking.
and i don't like phish, or any modern bands. and i'm one to travel alone :D

"life without travel is only half living" :]

i'm planning on it, it's my life ambition, to be an architect and artist and a traveler. i can't now though. too many responsibilities, like being a college student which comes first. then i'd travel all over :D first stop england and then rishikesh india :]

in all of his stories he seems to just be an audience, watching what others are doing and commenting on their actions. but i imagine his personality would bring a lot more to a situation than he leads you to believe

And he isn't clowning; he's showing the signals that he used when he was a brakeman for the Southern Pacific.
