You can see I got in eight minutes early for my 10 o’clock appointment. Roger called me into his office and we discussed show business and comedy in the 60s and 70s when Roger was booking talent for the Mike Douglas Show.
It was such a relaxed meeting I almost forgot why I was there, and at the end he said “well, you got the job.”
Great meeting!
Heres a little travelogue- with focus on the travel part (i left my phone in my bag all weekend)
Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
“GROK”
Is my co-pilot…
I’ve used SI several times on this Cavalcade.
Once for a detailed weather report between to locations and along our root. GROK suggested we wait until the next day.
Which we did.
I’ve also given it Two points and the route between, asked it to find a hotel at roughly the halfway point.
Works like a charm.
Here’s the latest.
“I’m riding a motorcycle from Corsicana TX to Acworth GA, find a hotel close to the halfway point.”
GROK;
Jackson / Pearl, Mississippi is the practical halfway point on the drive from Corsicana, TX to Acworth, GA.
The full route is roughly 760–770 miles (mostly via I-20), so the midpoint falls right around Jackson, MS—about 390–400 miles from Corsicana (roughly 6–6.5 hours of riding).
Pearl (just east of Jackson, right on I-20) is especially convenient for an overnight motorcycle stop: easy interstate access, plenty of surface parking, and hotel clusters near exits.
Here are solid nearby options with free parking and good interstate ...
