Daniel checked in to say that he’ll be out of touch for a week, because he’s driving across the country.
He didn’t say why he was driving across the country. My theory is that he’s on the run.
Maybe all the churches he designed websites for have now found out that he’s an atheist, and they’re all after him to get their money back from the heathen.
Right now, Daniel is now flying down the interstate, with a dozen church mini-vans in hot pursuit.
He’s staying ahead of them, but only because they have to stop once a day and hold a bake sale in order to pay for gas.
Anyway, that’s my theory. He’ll be back in a week.

This made me think of the Blues Brothers …
VorJack’s theory does call the BB to mind, but I thought more like Daniel being Willie Nelson “On the Road Again”, or maybe like Albert Brooks in Lost in America, or even such as Alice Hyatt from the dramatic film by Martin Scorcese, Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore and later the sitcom Alice which isn’t like the movie at all except for the part where she works in a diner and wants to launch a singing career. Daniel may be on the run from an abusive adulterer after his husband dies and work at Mel’s until he can finish the trip to California and return to his dream of being a singer.
His husband? How progressive…
Did anybody else read that in the voice of Sheriff John Burnell?
Well it made me think of this:
“Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes “
Living in a country you can drive across in about 3 hours, the idea of a week ‘driving across the country’ is mind-blowing.
We love it when European visitors come to America with big plans.
“I want to go to New York this weekend, then Disneyland the next day, then Yellowstone Park after that…..”
Happened to my father-in-law actually. A group of French consultants visited his company for a few months, but it didn’t take them long to grasp just how physically huge our country is.
Dude, having driven from Pemboke Dock to Great Yarmouth in one sitting – you can’t to that in three hours! Closer to eight. But yeah, your point still remains.

We’re on a mission from Reason.
“and they’re all after him to get their money back from the heathen.”
After they get their money back they will tell Daniel that he was never a True Christian.
He might be under cover in the bible belt. Do some more research.
Mr. Florien damn well better bring back pictures.
Vorjack- that is an *awesome* theory! I can just picture it now… nuns leaning out of the minivan in an attempt to sprinkle holy water and scream “Christ compels you!” at high speed…
LOLOL!!!!!!
Don’t forget leaning out the windows and side doors wielding rulers.
It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark, and we’re wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.
Leg. End.
I wondered why all those damn mini-vans were following me…
what ever you do
do no stop
Stop typing and DRIVE!
Run Daniel run!!
