I hear one of the railroads is going to start a special high-speed freight service for shipping poultry across the country.
It'll be called the "Pullet Train".

We're actually in the middle of a bathroom tub/shower renovation right now. We're getting both grab bars and the little shelves shown here. Now I have ideas for how to use the shelves.fresh_42 said:

That reminds me of the Monty Python vinyl LP Matching Tie and Handkerchief. If you played the B side, flipped it to play the A side, then flipped it again, you really did (50% of the time) get a secret C side.Ibix said:
The B side, instead of having a single spiral groove, had two concentric grooves interleaved with each other. It was a matter of luck which of those two grooves the stylus landed on.

Well, you can set them all to flash at once. That means "I know I'm parked illegally and/or dangerously and/or I'm making things difficult for other road users, but I don't care".256bits said:

When I lived in Kentucky, many drivers had the weird habit of using turn signals after completing a lane change. Shortly after moving to the DC area, a driver pulled the same stunt in front of me one day. Yup, Kentucky plates.
