    Featured How to Detox

    Just wanted to throw a quick note in here, cuz I've been through this a fuck ton of times too. If you're doin well and starting to get intense cravings again and are thinkin' about falling off the wagon, it sounds kinda lame but honestly if you buy flavored sparkling water, it really kinda...

    Book recommendations

    I second "You Can't Win" by Jack Black (no, not the shitty actor), great book, one of my favorites. Also I just got finished reading Woody Guthrie's autobiography entitled "Bound For Glory," and I thought it was great. If you wanna get real surreal with it, "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" by Tom...

    Travel superstitions?

    Someone handed me a stone with a viking rune symbolizing 'wealth' carved into it years ago, and later that day a van pulled over and just straight said sorry he wasn't gonna give us a ride, but "take this" -- handed us $300 and sped off. That's not the only time something totally random and...

    Punk Run or Alternative Substance Abuse Meetings

    Alright, I tried to search for another thread like this but didn't find anything, so here goes. There's always a lot of deaths in the community, but there's been a hell of a lot recently. As someone who has also struggled with various substance abuse issues before, I thought it would be a cool...

    Name Your SPIRIT ANIMAL

    Red fox. I've always loved them, but for some reason I have had multiple strange incidences where one has come out of the wilderness and just hung out with me. Quite often it's when I've felt lost or would have otherwise maybe asked for a 'sign.' One of the more bizarre experiences was one that...

    how did you get your "name"?

    I probably won't go by it now that I'm back in the lower 48, but recently I went out to Alaska to find fishing work. Some of the natives (a lot of them were teaching me skills I'd need on the water while I was looking for work) found out my favorite boat was called the "U.S.S. Maggot," so for a...

    Wasteland Weekend 2014...?

    They did! They had two areas for fights, one was a cage fighting place, the other was a small Thunderdome. There is a slight pic of it, it's the one of two girls watching a fake television set in front of the thunderdome so it looks like they have HDTV with the thunderdome channel on.

    Wasteland Weekend 2014...?

    Ha, the Cannibal was just the douchebag who sliced up our tent for no reason. Their entire camp was based around the fact they were the cannibals of the wasteland. And yeah! That would be awesome, I would definitely be all for there being an STP camp! And it really is super cheap in comparison...

    Wasteland Weekend 2014...?

    Oh, yeah, and because our camp ended in such a shit show by pissing off a Cannibal, we dubbed ourselves Camp New Detroit. Seemed fitting. I think that's sticking for the future.

    Wasteland Weekend 2014...?

    Yeah! Me too! I was always hoping they would eventually make one set in Colorado. And yeah! One of the camps has taken to creating and hiding bottle caps all over the wasteland! You find ten and bring them to the camp and win prizes. There's also a bottle cap casino and bounty hunting for caps...

    hitching through oregon, places to avoid?

    Also I mean I didn't mention it because I assumed you already knew but you should probably go to Portland if you haven't been.

    Avoid Medford. It's just outside of Ashland. Bleehhhhh! ::hungover:: Although I did meet some cool other folks there that were also trying to get the fuck out of Medford, and got picked up by one of my favorite rides ever, so I guess really wherever you are... there can be good shit too...

    Aside from the Hank's and Woody and all that, while it's not super intensely related to traveling for some reason I thought of this song. I love this crazy bastard :)

    What to pack?

    Went through this whooooole thing and I don't think I saw these added (if they were, forgive me), but recently I've become a fan of bringing one or two pairs of diabetic socks with me. They can be pricey some places, but they sell them at the dollar store now (and at Walmart, Walgreens etc...
