Journey Around the World

Excerpt from Taking the Old Highway By Brad Modesitt.

“This planet has- or rather had- a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.”- Douglas Adams in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

Lesson Learned: A two-foot drop is big enough.
