“Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause “the West is the best.” And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure, the climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual revolution. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the great white North.

“... up to this date, I have never been shut up in a separate room, or hedged off with any observances.

The night before a game, I prepare myself both mentally and physically for the next day.

Enforcement of these rules will enable one to eat alone every night in comfort.”
