About - In Search of #6
story description
In Search of #6 is the story of the trials and trails of a man, a best friend, two bicycles, three states, four dispersed campsites, five tires, seven post-prandial naps, twenty-one dozen eggs, 1,100 miles, 15,000 vertical feet, and the search for a single kiss.
It is a tale of love, friendship, lactic acid, Achilles’ Tendons, mistaken identities, false promises, broken dreams, large mountains, pungent flatulence, Heterosexual Life Partnership, childhood reminiscence, Umberto Eco, overused comic ploys, and considerable merriment. In Search of #6 is read by the author and includes audio interludes recorded during the course of the trip itself.
And best of all: it is entirely free. So sync up your feedreader, hook up with iTunes, pull out your headphones and prepare to hit the road. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll wish there was more, and you’ll certainly think twice about eating more than four eggs a day.
Available now at damonjustisntfunny.com, in the iTunes Music Store, and across the web.

Damon -
Listened to “In Search of #6,” enjoyed it, and was sorry when it was over.
I am here to send you over to Podiobooks.com so you can put #6 there, too.
When it comes to books, more is better.
Go and check it out.
Please.

Hello!
Gail is right, you know. I never would have found this wonderful book if it weren’t listed at Podiobooks.com.
But I’m here now!
I have this terrible habit of writing rave reviews of books I haven’t finished yet, and this is one of them. I’ve listened to the first four episodes. I really love it. I love the informality of it, the kind of wandery way it gets where it’s going, the “voice” of the piece. The tone is perfect.
It reminds me, you won’t be surprised to hear, of Bill Bryson’s work. But as much as I admire Mr. Bryson, and as funny as he is, this book has led to more helpless laughter. I can never quite predict where you’re going, or even what word you’re going to use at just the right spot, and the surprises are hilarious and perfect.
Thank you for offering us the fruits of your work.
