Even if you can't be there in person, you can, via the wonders of the web, stillsee the scroll, up close and personal. Can there be any doubt that, if he were a youth today, Jack would be a blogger, blogging holy words of jazzical joy from the Road?
It has been noted that, when unfurled, the scroll resembles the white line that adorns many a long road in this great nation. When will someone take the next leap and dedicate a road to Jack, by actually putting the entire text of "On The Road" on the road?
