I've known no better peace than the sounds of him, dreaming. He made everything better. He was the last, best thing my mother gave me.

Thu, 01 May 2008 13:07:00 -0400

about two years ago, my friend steve shoppman called me over to his house and asked if i would help write a press release. steve, and his roommate, steve, had decided they were going on an expedition around the world.

big woop, right? what’s newsworthy about a couple of middle class white dudes going on a tour around the world? i know like six people that did that, and there was no press release involved.

then they told me they were planning on driving around the world (my initial thought was, of course, how they’re going to rent a car in antarctica). after looking at the mock-up of the route they wanted to take, they told me they were going to convince someone to give them trucks to do it.

this is where anne started to zone out. who’s going to give a couple of middle class white dudes some trucks for free?

stevenson toyota in denver, that’s who.

when they got the trucks, i started to scratch my head. steve shoppman’s done some crazy shii—-stuff, but this was starting to get a little unnerving. they had boxes of internet printouts on visas and entry documents for contries in africa and eurasia that i’d never even heard of, and i started getting nervous.

“steven, i dunno if this is the hottest idea. i think americans get like, kidnapped and sold to land mine farms or something there.”

and his response was so on point that i decided to shut up and support him however i could. “that attitude right there is exactly why we’re doing this - to show americans that not only CAN you travel to the places they tell you not to travel, but that you SHOULD be travelling there so you can help show what happens when nonsensical reputations get in the way of expanding your horizon. americans live in their safe cubbies of federal regulations and bix box chains and forget that there are a million other ways of doing things that can help you think about the world and why you’re in it.”

huh. okay. here i was thinking shipping my tooshie from denver to philadelphia was this huge cosmic adventure, and this kid is going to be in the far reaches of nooks and crannies that this planet has to provide.

and they DID it.

and they’re DOING it.

amazing.

i am amazed by possibility.

yes.

i don’t check this old hotmail address very often anymore, but since i got this meeting request from kofi annan today, i might start checking it more often.

it’s good to know the former UN secretary general is rocking gmail.
