Dunno if it's on your way, but if you come by Buffalo, I'll have you covered.   I've got this space-age couch that (strapped in? helmet on?) actually folds out into a bed. It's basically 2 pieces of furniture in one, like something out of one of the Transforming Robots movies.

Buffalo, NY - where science fiction - meets science fact!!
I'm warning you with peace and love.

I second I-10.  And why did you spell your own name wrong?
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Ben:

If you come through Mississippi on I-20 (Atlanta to Dallas connector) or are going Memphis to New Orleans, stop by and see us in central Miss. If you like southern fiction, I can take you to see Eudora Welty's grave.

However, I seem to remember you spelling your name with a few more h's.

We've got you covered - guest room, meals, and all - if you dip down into the Dallas-Fort Worth area.  You can take 20 to 80 to 75 (I think, double check that w/Googly maps) & we're near the I-635/I-75 mixmaster, if that gives you a point of reference.

We can take you to Good Records which, despite being co-owned by Polyphonic Spree cult leader Tim DeLaughter, is a pretty neat record store.
