Edit: Even I-84 has the common decency to cross over from Idaho to Utah!

Edit again: Oh yeah, I-49 :rolleyes: me off as well.
If that :rolleyes: you off what about this :)

The nice thing about that for IND is that IND is only a couple/four hours drive from many major midwest cities, including Chicago. It's so much different when you grew up in Texas and it takes FOREVER to get anywhere.

That doesn't bother me because they are given a special designation. H1, H2, etc. The kicker for interstates like 17, 27, and 37 is that there is a stated rule for interstates that are contained inside a single state: they have three digits. 17 Should be 115, 27 should be 125 and 37 should be 135.

I-84 also goes into Oregon.

Why would UA and US merge. I am sure US wants it, but even UA isn't that stupid.

NJ is currently in the midst of a huuuuuuge (that's a technical term) wealth drain thanks to oppressive tax policies out of Trenton. Our Census should hopefully show a nice drop in population that can then be used to scale down this turd of a government system we have here.

Yes, a new thread in the UA forum. Then sit back and watch their collective forehead veins swell.

There is a rule for the 3-digit interstates. They are spurs or loops on existing. Even numbers are supposed to be loops and odd numbers spurs. The one main exception I know of is 495 in NY which is a spur out into Long Island rather than a loop.

We lost three, I think, during my four years of college. One was a girl who had lived in the suite across the hall from mine during freshman year. :(

:eek: If this is Ithaca University we are talking about, that is on the short list for MissTeenBrit to visit. Maybe I'll have to persuade her there are safer places to go :rolleyes:

Forgive me, father, for I have sinned.

Someone was horking the presclub wifi here in IAH B. I booted into BT3, launched a DEAUTH flood, locked the computer screen, then went to the bar for a drink.

Wifi is running so much better here now.
Ok. Now. Perhaps you could explain that to me in English, rather than Vulcan Alien?

I just got back from taking delivery of my kitchen. It took the delivery guys nearly 2 hours to offload all the boxes and put them in my storage unit. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Mr.Brit and I have to spend the weekend unwrapping all the cartons, checking the cabinets and then re-wrapping them all. Double-:rolleyes: Nay! Triple-:rolleyes:

Correct. Did you used to work for AAA too? :p

Takes me back to when I worked for them and did map reading classes for kids and seniors.
