Amazing knowledge, but, why does this system, which is notionally based on a rational framework, produce interstates with the same numbers that are not connected? That is quite obviously confusing, I would say a serious glitch...

I really like RHCP but I fully get this critique.

Why is it called I-84, why are there two I-84s, and are there any other examples of interstate highways that have the same number designation but are not connected?? πŸ€”

We had a very nice highway discussion earlier this week sparked by my observation that the cover of Radiohead's "Ok Computer" features Highway I-84 in Connecticut. Apparently there is also a Highway I-84 on the west coast, but they are not connected... bsky.app/profile/prin...

It was a pilot project to see if it would work. It did work. They erased it anyway, to make more street parking.

I have personally striped a bike lane in Princeton. On Wiggins Street.
The town erased it about a year later.

excellent knowledge of local lore!

I guess it is about 500 miles to be fair. I am slightly surprised that Ryanair offers that route!

Milan to Naples is an unusual itinerary!

I guess there's nothing stopping you from singing a song, it's theoretically protected speech*. Presumably the act of collecting money for it that is unlawful.
* so many exceptions to the First Amendment, unlike, say, the Second one.

all you got is Jack and shit, and Jack just left town...

I have often wondered why we don't have any buskers in Princeton. I assume it is because it is illegal per local ordinance.

Our family has taken transit to JFK and it really does add up. Probably about $200 all in. You can pay for quite a lot of long-stay parking for $200…

That's not very many. I guess they have a chance then. Good luck, scalpers!!!

I just do not believe that there is much of a market for $600 parking passes for a game between Haiti and Scotland.

06.03.2026 18:14 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

My guess is that these parking passes will be available for $50 or maybe $20 the day before the mathc.

Maybe a little jail time will ensure compliance?

Just connect in London instead. Not so hard.

My brother is moving to Melbourne and I am just assuming that I am never going to see him again.

one of these routes that is hard to comprehend for those of use who mostly look at 2D maps of the world!

If they can't, they play to fly over Japan and the North Pole, which is apparently possible with the ultra-long-range A350.

And that's before we even consider the national deficit, which is going to absolutely exploder under Trump II. Of course, the media are not talking about that now, because the deficit only matters when Democrats are in charge.

apparently QANTAS are going to launch a new direct flight from Sydney to London, which will fly over Russia, and importantly, not over Iran!

I actually don't think the total distance is much greater!

Presumably people who would ordinarily be traveling between Australia and Europe via the Middle East on the middle eastern carriers, but who now have to use alternative itineraries provided by United?

Aaron Renn, that's his name. I couldn't remember it, but I will never forget "The Masculinist", lol!

- MercerMe A standing-room-only crowd filled Borough Hall on March 4 as the Hopewell Borough Planning Board continued its public hearing on the proposed Hopewell 57

NIMBYS angry about an inclusionary apartment building packed out a meeting of the Hopewell Borough Planning Board. "The meeting drew such a large turnout that residents lined the walls of the meeting room, while additional viewers watched remotely on Zoom. "
