This is probably the most honest "friendship" poem ever penned...
When you are sad,.............I will get you drunk and help you plot revenge against the scum sucking bastard/bitch who made you sad.
When you are scared,......... I will laugh at you and tease you about it every chance I get.
When you are worried,.........I will tell you how much worse it could be and to quit complaining.
When you are confused,........I will use little words to explain it to your dumb ass.
When you are sick.........I will hold your hair while you pay homage to the porcelain god.
When you fall......I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.
This is my oath...............I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask?..............Because you're my friend.

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.

the world... nutty.
