My name is Willie Gee and I am a mapaholic.

I spend tireless hours at home and at work going over maps and routes in and out of the Dragon. From time to time I purse my lips together and make Vtec sounds as my right hand shifts gears, occasionally even a heal toe as my eyes drive the pixel corners.

I can quit any time I want. I just don't want to.

With each day, each minute, my mind goes into a frenzy as any spare second is dedicated to my mistress: the maps.

Soon my fantasy will become reality. How I embrace the day.

They have no cure for that yet.




Only treatment is to actually go to 129 and let it all out.

thank you David for leaving many of the good roads empty. Men like you should be toasted for your sacrifice.
