I-96



Shot taken just before landing at DTW (Detroit Metro Airport)... You can see the north-west side of Detroit Metropolitan area, and as the title says, that large freeway is I-96, that starts from the Ambassador Bridge (bridge that connects Detroit to Windsor (Ontario) and ends-up on Michigan's western coast, if I'm not mistaken, in Muskegon, crossing another two large cities, Lansing (Michigan's Capital) and Grand Rapids.

Today's joke:

An efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution:
"You don't want to try these techniques at home."
"Why not?" asked somebody from the audience.
"I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for years," the expert explained. "She made lots of trips between the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying a single item at a time. One day I told her, 'Hon, why don't you try carrying several things at once?'"
"Did it save time?" the person in the audience asked.
"Actually, yes," replied the expert. "Previously, it would take her 20 minutes to make breakfast. Now I do it in seven."
