Dude, Don't take this the wrong way, but what kind of girl do you really expect to say yes to a total stranger to spend 12 hrs on the road? I am glad you got an IPOD.

Let us consider the key points of the original post:

It is estimated that we will do over 1,000 miles before the weekend is done. We will probably be spending the night somewhere near Traverse City.

Where does the help come in? I don't want to be in the car by myself the whole time. I am looking for somebody to ride along. I would prefer a female as I get along better with them. I want somebody cool that I wouldn't mind spending more than twelve hours in the car with.

I don't know that there is *anybody* that I would want to spend that much time in a car with. Perhaps I should have say something about wanting someone who would not make me homicidal after the time......

Ethan

OK so what we're looking for is a girl who doesn't mind a man who likes leaves - who may want to drive fast - stay "near" a clearly made up place (cave possibly) who has homicidal tendences and likes his women "cool" (post mortem?)

Even our beloved Agent TripleX may think twice about this one....
... unless he reposts with the words "seriously wealthy" in there somewhere.

No, that would be Perverse City. It's nearby though!

Once, while driving east across country mnay summers ago, my radio died. Midway through Utah, crazy from the heat and silence, I picked up a guy in board shorts and a hare krishna top knot holding a surf board. But all we did was talk, I swear!

We've already found that Elise is NOT a "Babe Magnet" (most of the time).

I think the days are over when you drive a cool car down the street and pick up billions of bikini clad young babes, literally throwing themselves into the passenger seat!

You still can dream.

Dude, an iPOD is WAY cheaper than ANY woman will ever be.
Seriously, if I know now what I knew then, I'd tell you to buy 20 ipods if it helps you make it through

The kind of girl that does all the other things expected to go along with that.
