Welcome to the website of a wanderjahr: my yearlong disciplined whimsy. Sponsored by the Watson Fellowship, I will be traveling to six sites around the world in search of the many nuances of lake-monster culture. Particular emphases include implications upon tourism, identity, and the changing role of mythology.
The Watson Year is underway, and I'm now in
Rotterdam, Holland as of
4 April.
Seeking a sedentary slowdown...
If you would like to receive a Lake Monster Culture update, about once a month during the project, include your email here:(Note: Buck respects your privacy, and will not sell emails to any lake-monsters.)
Dat's one sexy hunka man, dere. Yeought-hhh...
Oh yeah, speaking of speaking poorly...the Tobacco Road Cousints of MZ Hockey reached as high as #7 in the world this past week, Bucko. I'm currently #11, and play my first game in the NHL this Sunday. Not too bad dere, eh?
Bandana lost on the bike ride to the airport. Shirt given as a gift to a Nepalese hotel worker who seemed to really take a liking to it. Shoes, given as a "gift" of sorts in Mt. Abu. May they find good travels...

That's some really beautiful scenery...damn the Pacific NW winters! You lucky bastard. =P
