You might need to rendezvous with another vessel mid-trip for gas, but amphibious cars do exist.

Off-road travel, even in a car not explicitly made for it, is usually safer than traveling a derailed train. But I get your point.

Initially, for shits and giggles. I can't ride a bike and I also can't drive, so I'm stuck on foot.

I dare you to travel on your own bicycle in the depths of winter across the USA in the same timeframe as a car.

The most recent book I pirated was What If? 2.

But where would we play golf?

Wait, isn't that mixing any drink with Galliano?

Literally advice from Gary.

Because I think we need to heed the warnings of the exit speech by Eisenhower, among others. And 'War is a Racket' changed my perspective on the US military while I was in high school. I shared copies of it with all the poor suckers in ROTC. About half of them quit. The others thought they could get away from it with just the college and the drudge work. As if the drudge work isn't part of the racket too.
