Trying to “Be More Than Internet Famous” as instructed by a billboard at a bus stop in Redding, California.
How was The Idiot more than internet famous in the real world before noon today?
He hit a yoga class followed by zen meditation and a swim at the YMCA. In between he visited the bank (well, an ATM), the post office (well, his PO Box), a gas station, had an hour-long meeting with real people and is now heading to a luncheon. Ah, fame.

About Joel
Joel Stratte-McClure has been a global trekker since the 1970s. He lived in France for over 30 years, working as a journalist, before he turned his attention to a unique life-time-project of walking the shores of the Mediterranean. The first 4,401 kilometers are explored in his inspirational and entertaining first book "The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean." The next 4,401 kilometers are covered in the gods-filled sequel, "The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean,” published on Valentine's Day 2013.
