Two military policemen were chasing a fleeing draftee from The military base. The draftee ran into the courtyard of a convent where a nun Was seated on a round bench beneath a tree quietly reading a book. He said to her "quick sister, please hide me I don't want to be Drafted and the m.p.'s are chasing me!"
She lifted up her skirts and said hide under my skirt. The two policemen came By and asked if she had seen anyone. She replied "no"
After they left she told the young boy to come out all was OK He said you have a nice set of legs for a nun!
She replied if you reach up a Little farther you'll find a set of balls! I'm not going to be drafted either!

Mundane Journeys through an Amazing World begins with Interstate 80. Not the most engaging topic, I know, but when you think about it, I-80 runs all the way across the North American continent linking San Francisco and New York. It's not just a ribbon of asphalt, it's a portal to far away, almost magical places.
My visits to major cities like Tokyo, London and Washington DC have been business affairs. I haven't rode a lot of roller coasters or ridden in open air buses, but I have visited with senators, bought yams from the back of a truck and barely escaped complete embarrassment when I was introduced to Matt Wiener in Vegas.
As I wrote the book I realized that over the years exotic, distant places have become more like the mundane places I've called home. But, as it turns out, there really aren't any mundane places, only mundane ways of looking at things.
