Andrew the Engineer

Part I


“Fleshy-headed mutant. Are you friendly?” -Bob McKenzie (Strange Brew, 1983)

This doodle and the questions hidden in the swirls now belong to a fleshy-headed man called Andrew. This hombre is an intelligent, well-read, and ambitious weirdo. Yeah yeah for sure, a bit of a cheeky fellow, this one. (God what a word.)

Let me share a few of the Q’s: Talk about adventure. | I’m looking for the American Dream. Can you help me find it? | Why are you an engineer? | Thoughts on procreation?

A few years back, this one and I drove to Seattle from eastern South Dakota. Looking back, it seems like this trip was the beginning of my explorative thinking and lofty dreams. It also sparked a genuine love for being on the road. Well, that, and I had just read Into The Wild, so that aided the cause swimmingly… But oh, what a fine experience it is to be on the road.

This friend will certainly answer my inquiries for day 55 with articulate panache. Check back for them, eh!
