238 Miles
A long day's journey out of Iowa.

I've made almost that exact same drive innumerable times.  I grew up in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, about 25 miles from there.  I think Abba is a hoot and kind of fun to listen to sometimes, but why make a hard thing harder?  That's a dull drive, any way you slice it.  It's the sort of thing that iPods and CD shuffle were made for.  This guy's a masochist.

Agreed! And of any ABBA song to pick, why that one? That's like doing a Rolling Stones drive to Satisfaction, a Bruce Springsteen drive to Born in the USA (actually, that might be awesome for a midwestern drive), or a Beatles drive to She Loves You.

I think this guy needs to go on the "Long Walk"

Yeah, the natural choice for him would have been "Waterloo," which is also the name of another city in Eastern Iowa...

Coudal Partners!  I like Scott Smith's short film "10", too.  http://coudal.com/smithvideo.php
