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."

Today's joke:

Three nuns were attending an Astros baseball game. Three men were sitting directly behind. Because their habits were partially blocking the view, the men decided to badger the nuns, hoping that they'd get annoyed enough to move to another area.
In a very loud voice, the first guy said:
"I THINK I'M GOING TO MOVE TO UTAH. THERE ARE ONLY 100 NUNS LIVING THERE!"
The second guy said also loudly:
"I WANT TO GO TO MONTANA. THERE ARE ONLY 5O NUNS LIVING THERE!"
The third guy said:
"I WANT TO GO TO IDAHO. THERE ARE ONLY 25 NUNS LIVING THERE!"
The mother superior turned around, looked at the men, and in a very sweet and calm voice, said:
"Why don't y'all go to hell... there aren't any nuns there!"

Here are some shots from San Antonio, TX - maybe you've guessed already, I took 'em while driving...



Today's joke:

Bill wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table. He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Bill looks around the room and sees that it is in a perfect order, spotless, clean. So's the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping. Love you."
So he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating.
Bill asks:
- Son, what happened last night?
His son says:
- Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door!
Confused, Bill asks:
- So, why is everything in order and so clean, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?
His son replies:
- Oh that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off you said, "Lady, leave me alone, I'm a married man!
