The Dalai Lama was once asked what surprised him most about humanity and he said, "Man.. because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future he does not enjoy the present, the result being that he does not live in the present or the future. He lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived." I read this years ago and has always stuck with me. You have to enjoy life and put some materialistic goals aside.

*Overlanding,* might be what they were referring to. That requires a "rig", some sort of vehicle that enables you to camp anywhere you want. You often have solar power, small refrigeration, small kitchen, and other essentials. It's very appealing because you can be with nature at various amounts of time. It seems neat because you can still have a normal home. Henry Rollins does seem very cool and is often outspoken about much that's wrong with our country. He seemed kind of "piggish" once about women though, I haven't been very interested since. Maybe I was high too when I thought that, lol.
