Rave for "Just One Little Hitch," coming Nov. 15 “...A sprinkling of the humor of David Sedaris, the storytelling wit of Bill Bryson, and an ounce of Anthony Bourdain’s snark...— David Farley, author of An Irreverent Curiosity amazon.com/Just-One-Littl…

The English didn't have Deadheads in the 1970s. They had the Wallies. I was dragooned by them into building a stage at Stonehenge. They fed me crackers and wine and scrumpy. They dosed me on acid. Read my upcoming travel memoir, Just One Little Hitch. justonelittlehitch.com/?page_id=803

My book, "Just One Little Hitch," is Amazon's #1 Hot New Release—in the Historical African Biographies category. Boy, oh boy, this is so wrong, considering that it's more hysterical than historical, I'm not African, and it's a memoir, not a biography. Other than that, nailed it!

I "sneaked" into Africa by the backdoor, from the Seychelles to Zanzibar, Lamu, and Mombasa, on an expedition ship. What an adventure! goworldtravel.com/africa-cruise-… Swan Hellenic

@Swingersomad Not a fan. To order a drink, talk to a guy w/ headphones who communicates the order to the bartender, who preps your drink Then when you leave, an officious young man storms up to you and says sternly, “Excuse me sir, can I help you?” Friendly? Opposite. Uncool.
