Get In
Some of the best conversations I've ever had happened in a car with a stranger. You're moving, you're both looking straight ahead as the miles roll beneath you, and suddenly you're saying things out loud for the first time. I hitchhiked 10,000 miles across America in 1973 with nothing but a backpack and a guitar, and what I came home with wasn't just stories — it was an education in how human beings open up when they're in motion together. Now I'm the one doing the driving. I'm trying to talk to you the way I used to talk to the people who picked me up on the interstate — openly, unguardedly, two people going where the water tastes like wine and not wanting to be treated that-a-way. Jerry knew what that meant. So do you. Get in.
