A good story improves with the telling, and nothing improves a travel story more than something going wrong. Once the anguish fades, the frustration, embarrassment, danger, and inconvenience provide great material for a tale that can be told again and again. The adventurers in What Color is Your Jockstrap encounter just about every absurd, surreal, and wacky moment imaginable, from a monster dildo that wont go away to becoming the prey of religious zealots at the worlds largest human gathering. The proverbial hair in my soup at a French restaurant is spiced up by the proprietors remarkable solution to the problem. Nothing is too ridiculous on the road, and as these men and women generously share without shame or undue embarrassment, they prove again and again that a sense of humor is the one tool no traveler should be without.
