Oh, and Speaking of Cows

On the heels of the last two posts (about cows and about working-class copy), it only makes sense to link to a project from three of my old buddies: Tim, Noah, and Sam. They’re taking a HUGE bike touring trip from Alaska to Panama, raising money for Heifer International along the way. It’s good guys, a good trip, and a good cause.

And more than that, their blog is a good example of what I’ve been talking about. These guys aren’t literary geniuses… just a couple of guys who like bikes and like cows. The blog reflects that. It’s working-class copy, and it’s real. It may not be great, but frankly, I think it’s pretty darn good.

Or, as a Vermont farmer would say, wicked good. Yuh.
