[at-l] HOW DID YOU GET TO BE A WANDERER

How: Bad luck, good luck, Colin Fletcher, and insanity.

Oh, and a bad Bible translation.  Felix asked me to read the translation of
St. Luke that he was working on, and somehow the words 'backpack' and
'cross' got confused in that scripture that says, "Pick up your cross and
follow me..."  Could have happened to anyone.

(If that's too sacrilegious and someone is offended, then I'm sorry.  I'm
not sorry that you're offended, I'm just sorry.)

Where: Anywhere I could.
