I guess that's so private he can't leave a post-it note on the fridge for his wife. ( do they even talk? )

Bizarre.

He may not have vanished, but his career certainly has.

Isn't this something a lot of crunchy granola hippies do? I think they take out 3-6 months between jobs and hike it all the way up the country.

I like the South Carolina Governor. Would you rather he be out drinking or running around with people who don't pay their taxes. Maybe he is thinking over his decision to run for President in 2012. The trail is a healthy, mind clearing experience. More people ought to do it.

ABC news tonight mentioned that he has aspirations of running for president in 2012.

Unless this "beam me up Scotty" experience is hashed out he can forget about that.

Maybe he should have checked in with his kids, you know, it being Father's Day weekend and all.

He's thinking the whole time...

"Kids?

To hell with that, there's a trail that needs to be blazed!"
