On the Road: from New York to Texas

    "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac (The Original Scroll)

    "Why don't you go down to Texas and see Burroughs and Joan?"

    "With amazement we saw great structures of light ahead of us "Texas, it's Texas!"

    "Texas, Texas, so you see man, my soul, the state of things, my position - you notice I get quieter". Yes, that's true. Neal had grown quiet in New York".

    "Neal concluded his business with his girls and the two boys, giggling happily, took off for Texas on the road. Someone in Denver saw them going down South..."

    "Ah" sighed Neal, "the end of Texas, the end of America, we don't know no more". It was tremendously hot, we were all sweating buckets"
    - from "On the Road" (Neal Cassady was a major figure of the Beat Generation and the psychedelic movement of the 1960s, he was characterized as Dean Moriarty in Jack Kerouac's novel On the Road).

    "Kristen Stewart will be traveling On the Road with some high-profile company. The Twilight beauty, who's currently filming the movie adaptation of Jack Kerouac's classic novel in Canada, has just been joined by two new co-stars. (Sadly, no, neither of them are named Robert Pattinson—though her Twilight co-star did pay Stewart a sexy visit on set yesterday.)

    "The Lord of the Rings star Viggo Mortensen and Enchanted actress Amy Adams have both signed on for the Walter Salles-directed adaptation, which is slated for release next year. Mortensen will portray Old Bull Lee, a character inspired by Naked Lunch author William S. Burroughs, while Adams will play Jane, based on Burroughs' wife, Joan Vollmer.
    Stewart is portraying Marylou, based on LuAnne Henderson, the first wife of Neal Cassady (dubbed Dean Moriarty in the book/movie, and portrayed by Garrett Hedlund)". Source: www.celebuzz.com

    If you considerate you're in the mood for a change of residence and are seeking solutions for
    cross country movers, you'll need to find a moving company that fits your demands, depending if you are moving in a hurry and do not have too much time, or you're wrapping your possesions in boxes.

    In case of a transfer to Houston, there are some interesting data about the the 4th largest city in USA (and 2nd largest port):
    -Summers in Houston are very hot, with highs reaching over 90°F
    -As a result of the stifling humidity, it's probably that Houston is the most air conditioned city in the world.
    -Houston houses the Texas Medical Center, which is the largest medical center in the world. Over 50,000 employees work at the Texas Medical Center.
    Austin is the capital of the state of Texas, it is the fourth-largest city in Texas and the 15th-largest in USA. Austin is emerging as a hub for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Austin hosts the annual Austin Film Festival SXSW.

    In addition to packing and labeling your boxes carefully, you'll have to hire
    Austin movers or Houston moving services: it is a good idea if you compare from different places so you can get affordable prices for packing services and fees on your move.
