Heh.. funny you should mention Dimmu Borgir. The bar I hobble up to has an open kitchen and they blast metal out of there, I think most of which is DB, often over stuff like Death Cab For Cutie or whatever's being played on the jukebox. The combination is great. I guess workers comp isn't so bad but I wanna get back to work, and at the same time say "fuck society" and just do this whole thing, all the way down. I could pick up odd jobs on the side like trimming too.

Interestingly I looked it up; I actually played a show with this band. They sound a lot different live and I kind of liked them.

Oh wait! Not the same band! It was Builders and Butchers, not Builders. These guys still suck!

Mountain climbers.

If it's anything like the one that runs the North-South down the Appalachians, where the trail comes near towns there are people who make a hobby of supporting the hikers with food/medical/temporary shelter.

I hiked the AT just through VT. One guy I met quit his job as a forklift operator because he didn't want to spend the rest of his life doing mundane bullshit. Met lot's of retired folks in their 60s. Some from Europe. Friend of mine did the whole thing and wrote a book about it. He's a writer so that's his job.

Most folks I saw just did it. For lots of reasons. Most not rich. But you do need to drop down at least 00 for gear.

Cool! A lot of it I have covered. I've been saving up to go somewhere. When I got kicked out of my last apartment I just went back home and then got injured on the job so I've had a lot of time to think, and, well, save up for an adventure. Whereto, who knows? But I've always wanted to do this while I'm still on the west coast.

stay away from mah still/lab!!

You would think Bigfoot would be enough to scare off the drug lab makers, but I guess drugs really fuck people up that way.

Kentucky uses armed patrols in some Taliban militia style shit. Watch your ass.
