Jack, not Daniel's...


"What will I do when I get to Frisco? Why first thing I'll get a room inChinatown" --but even nearer and sweeter I daydream what I'll do LeavingDay, some hallowed day in early September, "I'll walk down the trail,two hours, meet Phil in the boat, ride to the Ross Float, sleep there anight, chat in the kitchen, start early in the morning on the DiabloBoat, go right for that little pier (say hello to Walt), hitch right toMarblemount, collect my pay, pay my debts, buy a bottle of wine anddrink it by the Skagit in the afternoon, and leave next morning forSeattle"--and on, down to Frisco, then L.A., then Nogales, thenGuadalajara, then Mexico City--And still the Void is still and'll nevermove--But I will be the Void, moving without having moved."
Jack Kerouac
