Now, Harper Perennial has published a one-volume rewrite of his zine. [PETE JORDAN] visits on May 23 to read from and sign Dishwasher: One Man's Quest to Wash Dishes in All Fifty States. "I'm really looking forward to getting back to Pittsburgh," says the soft-spoken 40-year-old. "It's one of my favorite places in the world." He spoke with CP about his book, the working world, and Amsterdam, where he lives with his wife, Amy Joy. I had my own pride. I wasn't really proud, like, "I'm working for this corporation, or I'm working for this capitalist restaurateur - great! I'm so glad to wash this guy's dishes! When we first got here, my wife and I both trained at a bike shop in the middle of the city. You can nearly walk by it without noticing that there's even a bike shop there. Both me a...

In Washington's "A Pride of African Tales" (Amistad/Harper Collins Publishers, 2004), a collection of six delightful folktales illustrated by James Ransome, we meet two animals and a man who end up learning a lesson or moral. In "Anansi's Fishing Expedition," which takes place in Ghana, the trickster Anansi the spider is back to his sly behavior when he tries to get someone from his village to go fishing with him. However, everyone in his community knows that if they form a partnership with Anansi, they will end up doing all the work while the crafty character reaps all the benefits. From Ghana, we travel with Washington to the Democratic Republic of the Congo for her "cautionary tale,"Shansa Mutongo Shima." Here we meet the beautiful, intelligent and happy Bwalya, whom every man in he...

When I got married in December, friends asked my wife and me if we were going on a honeymoon. We replied that we are and have been for months because we are in the U.S. Army stationed in Europe. Yes, we get some weird looks when we say this, but it is true. Because we are in the Army, we have been able to travel to some of Europe's great places and have some special experiences. How can I impart the emotion of looking down on the graves of the people of Noville, Belgium, who were killed by the Germans in reprisals; looking at the candles in Giessen, Germany, on the night marking the U.S. bombing of the city in 1944; the monuments to Americans and British in Prague for liberating their country from the Nazis and the Soviets; the love of Americans all over Luxembourg, where the people's s...
