MPLS RUN, DAY 01: Portland to Boise, We're Hoping

July 01, 2009

Just as soon as this fucking hard drive copies over, we're outta here. You know, bulking up the DDC Mobile Command Unit. 87,858 items to copy over. Then we head east.- - - -A FALLEN SOLDIER: I don't know what the USPS had against the DDC, but they've got a beef with us in High Point, North Carolina. Here's how one of the posters got "delivered" a couple days back to a confused customer. Real nice. Another one is on the way, man!- - - -MAYBE WE'LL MEET SOME OF THESE CHARACTERS ON THIS ROADTRIP?: David Lynch's very addictive "Interview Project" that is making its way across the states. Be careful. You'll get hooked on these little nuggets fast.- - - -A LITTLE ABOUT LAYER TENNIS, AND MY UNRULY DEMISE: The little varmit Hubacek beat me out in the voting, and hell, that's how it goes in this digital democracy. A lot of ruffians are writing in to rile me up, and hey, I got this much to say: I played hard. I played to win. I used my faculties the best I could.Hubacek used my little DDC schtick against me to his favor, and hell, if that's what it takes to beat me down, well, I should've known better. Lesson learned, you little gremlin! Have fun in the finals and make Minnesota proud.Mr. Inman is a seriously smart cookie, and it's my hunch he won't let Friday's sort of tomfoolery rattle him. Our prediction.- - - -FROM A GUY IN CHICAGO WITH A COOL NAME: The one and possibly only Don Guss comes in real hot with a cool link about old trucks and old station wagons. There goes the afternoon. Get in there and get wild with some of that shit. Wow. How things have changed, eh?Don't weven know where to start on this one. Wow, look at that color!Oh yeah, punch me in the face.- - - -THIS GUY IS FOR SALE: K. Michael Merrill has this much to say: Make it happen!- - - -ON THE PLAYER TODAY:01. Wind whipping through our hair.02. Rubber hitting the road.03. The occasional honk while passing a trucker.
