Talking Jell-O story...

last year I got a speeding ticket coming back from Canada on the New York Thruway for 75mph in 65mph zone... (go figure)


so to fight it I decided not to drive back in the icy weather and instead fly up to Rochester, rent a car for a half hour ride and attend traffic court that way...


well the town next to where the court was held is Le Roy, NY the hometown of Jell-O.... they have a museum and such dedicated to the original Jell-O company. I had a great breakfast not too far from the museum, went to court, kicked some ..., got it reduced to a parking fine, and drove my rental to Niagara Falls, Ontario to celebrate the victory atop the Skylon overlooking the frozen Niagara Falls.


It was awesome!
