Matt Zeitlin: Impetuous Young Whippersnapper

Official Friend of the Blog Ned Resnikoff is going to soon embark on his long awaited Juan Way Tour. For their summer vacation, Ned and some of his high school buddies are driving a veggie-oil powered school bus across the country. Ned, as is fitting, will be blogging the entire journey.  The good folks at Campus Progress set up Ned and his crew with an awesome website where they’ll be chronicling their trip. Think of their blog as a biodiesel fueled running diary that takes the best from the three ultimate road trip stories: the Odyssey*, Democracy in America and, of course, Road Trip. Check it out.

*For all the pedants out there, I know the Odyssey isn’t technically a road trip, but I really didn’t want to pick the Aeneid, which is the Odyssey’s derivative, imperialistic bastard cousin.
