Fellow Americans, feel my pain.

no, this was in a proper car with four wheels, not one of them fancy motor-sicles you putt 'round in.

( plus consider US Highway 41.. traffic lights every three feet, and this after driving non-stop some 20+ hrs. down from Boston. )

( with only one stop for a blow job )

You're not going to end that story there are you?

This is great! She is going to be embarrassed about her 15 minutes of fame for the rest of her life. HA!

"PRAIRIE in WI"

Assassin !did you have a nice vacation ? nice have you back

Hey, whatever floats your boat.

I do find that the timezone thing is the hardest to teach the folks back home...

Just think of it as 6 hours worth of water between us...

have you ever had the family phone at 3:00am?.. one of my sis'in'laws was famous for that... "ooh, I thought it was 3:00in the afternoon"

(6 hour minus instead of plus )

Youngest one with R.C.N in Victoria BC "Hi dad we having supper so I drought I i give you a quick call" me "Thanks Brendan can I go back to sleep now'

It does make things rather easier for drunk-dialing exs back home

Just thinking about Canada /Austrelia.My wife has a sis in Adelain " hi sis how is your weekend ""good I am just on my way to work "

Or the text message.... "hey I just landed at the airport in your town and have a 1 hour lay over, why don't you come out and meet me for a beer?"

Um. No.

I have a Montreal number VOIP since 8 years now and the occasional middle of the night wrong number phone call is always a pleasure to receive.

I like to scare them off with a possible large phone call bill by telling them:

- Sorry sir, you are calling in (enter the country). It is the middle of the night here.

I got the 3am phone call in San Fran from my ex-gf in Australia a few years ago. She was clueless about time zones, too, despite living in a country with 3 of them. Of course, everyone knows bad news doesn't wait until morning so it's the kind of thing to get your heart racing.

Meeting up is one thing, but what about people asking to you to bring stuff back, not realising you're trying to make the trip with just hand luggage and now have to take a long a suitcase full of crap they think is better in Europe:

Toblerone anyone? Don't people realise even Giant sells this? Some obscure brand of mustard you then have to spend hours looking for at the store Something a friend of your friend bought and wants you to take along. Probably large, heavy, and mostly glass or something fragile. Also, you need to meet up with this person, who has a hectic schedule, and doesn't live anywhere near you (but you do share a continent) Alcohol. If I'm bringing a bottle of alcohol to the states, it's only for me.

May as well have been!

US 41?

That must have been before the interstate? My dad tells stories about driving US highways when he was a youngin as well.

this is popular in our house, too, especially the telemarketers who don't even realize that Switzerland is not a city in the US somewhere.

damn kids these days... no respect.. I tell ya... no respect at all !!

do you know southern Fla?

rt 95 MOST of the way...

route 75 -- after Jacksonville ... and that was a new highway I think after Tampa in 1982 ( you do the math !! )

then US 41

kids, dang kids... mumble mumble... ifin I only had my buggy whip!

the Allman Brothers were born in the back of a Greyhound bus on Hwy 41.
