Thanks,

I find a number of people are having enough of the "normal" world and it's lies.

Yeah I have seen that dewey... only the version I saw was called Into the Wild. I found it a curious mix of inspiring and sadening.

Yes. I read the book. I'll probably rent the movie this week (I heard it was good). The story (like many of that gentleman's books) is a tragedy because it was probably avoidable. It's notable, as mentioned above, because the boy had pretty much anything he needed, and yet was unsatisfied by his 'world'....and felt the need to flee....so to speak. Asking ourselves the hard question of how we, as a society, allow such a thing to occur....is a valid line of inquiry...for sure.

Cool!

There was a tv series back in the late 60's with a similar theme....where a man chucked the normal 9-5 grind as a newspaper reporter,and went cross country on a Harley.
It was called Then came Bronson.
Really a good one.
See if you can find it.

I have not seen it yet, but I read the book a few years back. It is by Jon Krakauer. He follows the route the young man (Christopher McCandless) travels and talks with the people he met along the way. It was incredibly sad, but I really appreciated the beautiful spirit of this person.
