I live in a house with seven college students. Of the seven, I am the only one who picks up hitchhikers. I estimate that I've picked up about 30 hitchhikers in the past 2 months and recently I decided to start up a little log book.

Now every time I pick up a group of hitchhikers, I get them to sign into the little log book. Just their name or initials with a short message like "Good Karma." I've logged 6 people so far and I'm really liking this idea.

I always feel bad for people who have to wait for 30+ minutes in the cold for their bus so I'm happy to help out. I'm hoping this little notebook will inspire me to keep helping hitchhikers out.

I should note that in the 5 or so years that I've picked up hitchhikers I've never had anything stolen so I have grown quite trusting of hitchhikers (maybe even a little too much).

Edit: Added Photo (First pages)

(Took the picture with my webcam and couldn't figure out how to reverse the picture, so everything looks like it would in a mirror.)


I drove to campus this morning to drop off a paper and on the way back i picked up a hitchhiker. This one left me a phone number and a facebook account. (I'll keep that page away from prying internet eyes). The good karma may already be coming in.

You should post a monthly blog detailing it. Then when your blogs stop, we'll know what happened to you. :D

Kidding, this is a very noble gesture. I wish people trusted each other more. I know If I was freezing waiting on a bus I would love to have someone pick me up even if they don't know me.

I like your idea. Only two pages so far, but I'm looking forward to seeing it come spring quarter.

I read that blog after you linked it to me, it's a damn good story so far but it's depressing to hear how bad people are when it comes to picking up hitchhikers.

Yeah, it is a very compelling story. Can't wait for the next part. Speaking of which...

lol i know plenty of people who hitchhike/pick up hitchhikers. nothing has ever gone wrong with them. the whole "U GON GET RAPED WHILE HITCHHIKING" is entirely american middle class white person paranoia. good job op! keep up the good work!

I was really intrigued by the language in the book. Then I realized it was just mirrored... Otherwise pretty nifty idea, I can see only good things coming from this!
