My Van Gets More Ink Done

It's time for another installment of "Sharpie Wisdom!" As always, these are real signatures from real people on my real van. It's all really...real. Really.

(I was originally going to delete that introduction, but then decided to leave it as a shining example of why I have never signed the van myself.)

My cousin Jaime found a fantastic quote from Albert Einstein. It's actually remarkably relevant to the project. You know, except that Einstein was discussing the process of formulating his theory of relativity, and I live in a van.


Reading this sentence is the meaning of life.


Did I just blow your mind? Kyle may have gotten married at Burning Man, but she was easily among the coolest people there.







The symbols Spots drew under his signature mean anarchy, peace, equality, and hobo rights.

I tried using this quote at Starbucks, but they still charged me four dollars for that latte.





Lora hitchhiked from Burning Man in Nevada all the way to Oregon so her boyfriend could pick up his passport in order to hitchhike to Mexico. Before I could mention the modern marvel that is the postal service, my van got a flat tire.

Lora commemorated the event appropriately.






When I got into Sacramento, a car of college age kids asked me to pull over so they could check out my van. They claimed to want to interview me for a fledgling magazine they were starting, but I never heard back from them again. Still, I really liked this message. It oddly made me want to attempt near suicide.

You know, in a good way.



I actually never met Edgar, but apparently he felt it was important to document his presence, and who am I to argue with someone who was so excited to be up?

Until next time,
