Average monthly tolls, January-October 2006: $16.53
November 2006: $5.54 (and that’ll probably be higher than my average)

There are also no delays anymore at Black Rock in the evenings. Things sped right up after they stopped posting a cop to babysit the plaza. Glad they took my suggestion.

It’s not often that I talk about work. Frankly, I talk enough about work… at work. Besides, I know that most of you don’t want to hear the geeky details of my daily work life anyways.
Today, however, I launched something that’s as close to cutting edge as we get at Praxair – [...]

Autoblog posted pictures of the Volkswagen Tiguan Concept – the evolution of the Concept A that I wrote about before.

We just watched a show about Massive Black Holes on the Science Channel. WOW. We learned that there is a massive black hole in the center of our and possibly every galaxy out in space. There are also 10’s of millions stellar black holes in our galaxy as well! They said [...]

“A nude porker” – Why I don’t hang out at nudist camps
“Poker unread” – Flush or bluff? You’ll never know.
“Road nuke rep” – Making frequent trips to the former [...]

BuffaloPundit posted an email he got from a downstate toll collector…
Hi…
I was reading about the removal of the tolls in the blog, and caught the line about “everybody wins”.
