If Nothing Else the Sky

If Nothing Else the Sky is about Dave Roche's trips to Australia and Southeast Asia. He got bit by a penguin, slept in a record store in Kuala Lumpur, saw a kangaroo with a huge sack, got shaken down at the Soekerno Hatta airport and thought he caught bird flu. It's also about getting older and Dave worrying that he's trying too hard to hold on to his youth. He wonders if it's cool that he's still sleeping on the couches of friends of friends or is he too old for that.
