I love you, John Waters.

From the NYT:

On a trip that Mr. Waters said took him eight days and about 15 hitchhiked rides to get him from one end of the country to the other, he has accumulated numerous anecdotes for a book he has tentatively titled “Carsick” and which will be published by Farrar, Straus & Giroux.

If I'd been one of the lucky 15 to have picked him up, I'd totally have driven him as far as he wanted...

...then again, that probably would have made for a less interesting book.

ETA: Josh says that he'd have brought him home like a stray animal. "Honey! I found a John Waters on the side of the road!"
