  4. Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? Or do we want to eat without fear, tearing into the local stew, the humble taqueria’s mystery meat, the sincerely offered gift of a lightly grilled fish head? I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.

  5. I am getting on a plane for 6 hours…Am I worried about my lack of internet like so many of my cohorts? No. Why? Because, as is my tradition, I brought 6 #books with me.

    I used to bring an entire bag just for my books. In fact, once, for a 12 hour train ride, I brought an entire Nike duffel bag stuffed to the gills with #paperbacks. When my brothers picked me up at the other end of the line, they were not pleased. In fact, they called my father and complained.

    I am probably someone who should have an ereader. I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
