didn’t know if you heard, read, were deafened by my shouting it from the rooftops here in Brooklyn…
National Geographic called.
called me.
on the phone.
and – as stated – there’s some stuff I can’t talk about.
but there’s also a few things I can.
I’m headed coast-to-coast soon.
in America.
from D.C. down South then alllllll the way to Los Angeles.
6 whole weeks.
but it’s not just a trip, it’s got a theme.
the theme is good.
as in ‘The Good Traveler’.
want to see something cool?
here’s the link to the page that has the name of the giant and then the name of your pal Queen as well.
they made me a banner.
THEY MADE ME A BANNER.
there’s nothing on there yet and I might get in trouble for sharing it but I’m sorry.
someone at NatGeo [I'd like to think we're on a nickname-friendly basis] asked someone else to make a banner with my name on it.
and they did.
and they spelled my name correctly.
National Geographic spelled my name correctly.
allow me one moment to mentally print that off and hang it on my non-existent fridge.
anyway.
it’s all about good stuff, namely: people doing good stuff.
food and music and adventure, sure.
but I’m headed off to find the good folks.
do you know any?
people and places like The Big O Foundation, The Tiziano Project, Caine’s Arcade, etc.
there’s no wrong suggestions – it could be an org, it could be one person.
but it’s all going to come from public suggestions.
so if you got someone good in/around that area you see above, then tell me.
I’ll go pay ‘em a visit.
let’s start there…
because this trip starts next Monday.
oh man.






I mentioned earlier that writing a second series for Converse/Converse All-Star has definitely been the highlight of my writing career…
