Default The Fat Man Walking

Perhaps he should have tried walking across a smaller country, Liechtenstein perhaps, and built his way up to the United States. This would have provided a number of beneifits:

- Confidence building
- Stamina building
- Further away from his wife

Is this the same guy who decided to walk across the country, rather than stay with his job, causing his family to lose the house? I'm working from memory...
