The B generation? I didn't know who it was. And then after I did the... Ultimately, I wrote a book about my hitchhiking experience years later. And everyone was like... heavy read on the road. And then on the road, I probably heard the title of that book every day, at least 10 times for two years. And I'm sure Kerouac is a great guy.
I mean, I just don't, I'm not too familiar with the beat generation.

I refuse to read it. People even have gifted it to me and been like, hey, man, you're going to love this one. And I'm like, is that on the road? Honestly, people have given me a book with wrapping paper on it, and they're like, this is right at Pirelli. I was like, that's fucking on the road, isn't it?

Yeah, no, I'm like, anything but that. But I'm sure it's a great book. It's just the comparison thing drives me crazy. But respect. Big respect to Kerouac. Would never speak down on anyone in the Beat Generation. What are some interesting moments you remember from those 70 days? Man, there was so much.

I mean, getting mistaken for a gay prostitute on my first hitchhiking ride in Louisiana was pretty funny. Where did you come from and where did you go? Well, I mean, the journey began in Baton Rouge. And the first destination was Houston, which is about four and a half hours west on Interstate 10. So I'm in Crowley, Louisiana. I'm on the side of the road. And I guess...

This was a cruising truck stop. It was known for being a place where male lot lizards would go to procure clients. And I was there. Lot lizards are... It's a derogatory term in trucker culture for a prostitute who hangs out at the Loves or Pilot Flying J. Large interstate truck stops.

Now trucker culture as it once was is pretty much finished because of the live stream cameras they have inside of the trucks now. So you can't snort Sudafed or pick up anybody. You can't even pick up a hitchhiker or you get fired.
