[HairOfTheDog]

Tom Waits is almost a weakness for me.

I could see a two day bar-hop with the man turning into a year long road trip requiring a 2 year recovery period and totally worth every minute. Love that song.

I used to travel about 50% of the time for business (got burnt out on it after 10 years; now I kinda miss it 10 years later). I think you're on the move a lot for business (and fun, hopefully). As a traveler and explorer, you probably appreciate these these lyrics, Tiki. @Crash too.

Always good to be on the road, and always nice when it's been long enough and you're able to head back home.

Oh it gets so lonely
When you're walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
Just gives you the blues
Just gives you the blues
So I bought me a ticket
I caught a plane to Spain
Went to a party down a red dirt road
There were lots of pretty people there
Reading Rolling Stone reading Vogue
They said "How long can you hang around?"
I said a week maybe two
Just until my skin turns brown
Then I'm going home to California

Oh it gets so lonely
When you're walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
More about the war
And the bloody changes
Oh will you take me as I am?
Will you take me as I am?
Will you?
