    Hmmmmmmm.

    We've come to a Flying J, which will probably be GREAT, that has a Waffle Haus next to it. And next to that is Lynyrd Skynyrd's Bar.

    We're going to inquire about property for sale here

    There is a QT at exit 5. Try the brisket pizza.

    Yeah. I just looked. Looks like it’s about .10 cent higher pre tax. I have no answer, but it’s probably opus’ fault

    That’s the one down there at what I like to call the Froot Loop, aka the Washington Beltway.

    I can’t venture to that part of the world. My truck starts to not run right, almost in protest. :biggrin_25523:

    The deal there was 95 was originally supposed to run through the District and come out where 395 does now, but along with quite a few other planned highways it was never built. That’s why the traffic down there is so bad now.

    Probably didn’t build it because they discovered it was a racist highway. So the projects are now intact but traffic is screwed

    Baltimore has the same problem, although not quite as bad as DC.

    83 was supposed to hook east through Fell’s Point and come out at 95 there at the 57 by the TA. 70 was supposed to run a couple miles further through everybody’s favorite body dumping ground and become exit 51 on 95 with the 170 spur going into downtown.

    I love these people who ##### about traffic problems and then turn right around and be the first community rabble rousers in line to raise Hell about stopping a new road project. :rolleyes:
