Behind the firewall, so I can read it and make sure it is not another idiotic Matt Viser's POS, but here it is.

Statecraft is the latest bond for Kerry and Thorne


In 1965, John F. Kerry and David Thorne were college-age kids driving around Europe together in a used English cab they bought for $100 and named Baxter. Inspired by Ernest Hemingway, they went running with the bulls in Pamplona. They drove around England, through France, and along the Italian coast, two young men with a summer to kill. It was a friendship that has shaped Kerry’s life in so many ways that even Hemingway might have found it too far-fetched for a plot line.
