    self sighting while driving

    ok, seriously, someone slap me with a trout... first I drop off my recycle at the Dan's on 3300 south (those of you in Salt Lake will know how stupid that was to begin with)... I decide that I have 3 choices... take 3300 south back to 15 (not an option due to construction), take 2300 east back to 4500 south to the 15 (the way I should have gone) and taking 2300 east to 80 which has even worse construction the 3300 south (guess which option I took).

    Oh and you'd think I would have learned my lesson and would chose a more suitable route from where I ate lunch to work..., I ate at the Wienersnitzel on 3rd west... to get to work I can take 1700 south or 2100 south to redwood rd to get to work.... now 1700 south almost never has traffic and would be smooth sailing the whole way... or I could take 2100 south (which most of y'all from SLC know is a congested nightmare between 300 west and 900 west)... which do y'all think I chose? If you guessed that I chose the traffic nightmare then you may have the honor of slapping me with a fish

      Smiley, just consider yourself extremely lucky you didn't have to take 3300 south between state and redwood... it's a nightmare right now, even during low congestion...

      Also... why did you even THINK about 80? I don't drive that like my life depends on it, I'll take 215 to foothill. haha

        because I had to get to 1300 south and I was thinking, oh how easy, get on 80 go to 15 exit on 13th... and it was only like 2:30 no where near rush hour, why on earth would I expect traffic

        yeah, construction zones don't bother me, Utah's construction zones are tame compared to Nevada...

          In the town I grew up in, we only had two seasons, winter and roadwork.

            But do you have any orange barrels? It's been long suspected that Albuquerque has all of the orange barrels on the planet. And I'm pretty sure that they roam in packs and move themselves. How else do you explain the random ones I see on westbound Alameda at the I-25 overpass with no road construction anywhere in sight?

            One guy I know that's an animator even made a movie called "Orange Barrels from the Phobosphere" positing the theory that orange barrels are flesh-eating monsters from another dimesion! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0395693/

            And for the record, all of the orange traffic cones on the planet are in Belfast!

              Not true! I passed a migratory pack of them here in CT just this week!

                "Migratory" being the key word. They had to come from somewhere.

                Come to think of it, I rarely ever see any here. >.>

                  Do they go off into the wilderness to die? One appeared in the ditch near my house a few weeks ago. The nearest known herd is over 7 miles away. I don't want to approach it if it may have died from something contagious....and even the vultures don't want anything to do with it.

                    Wisconsin has all the orange barrels. Almost every major road in town is under construction and has been since April, will be until it snows.....

                    Go on a road trip in Wisconsin sometime in the spring, summer or fall. Orange barrels everywhere.

                      Ya know, I hadn't thought about that. I say we apply for a federal grant to study it!

                      Yes, have you had a movie made about them?
