Fat Man Blogging!
I read an article last week about a man who took an entire year off work to walk from California to New York to work through some "issues". In the mean time, he lost 100 pounds, became semi-famous and wrote a daily journal on a blog. You can check it out at www.thefatmanwalking.com.
My only question is wouldn't he get tired carrying his computer and all the components? I guess if you're determined it doesn't matter!
