what a bomb. this may rank up there with some of poodles greats.

Ether, you never heard of Flag day? Where did you go to grade school?

And I hope your Father's Day was awesome.

Thanks, SH! Flag Day must be a regional thing... either that or I am just unpatriotic.

I must admit, it was a bigger deal in Ohio than it is here. Strange, since we are very proud of OUR flag.

yes, i'm definitely unpatriot (and live under a rock).

you sound like a terrorist to me... better hope we never cross paths... i dont take kindly to terrorists...

i like the idea of local/regional holidays...in suffolk county (boston), and somerville for example, it's bunker hill day today.

i also think casimir pulaski day is cool, though i'm unsure where it's celebrated.

under the Pulaski Skyway, naturally.

i recently found out that i share my birthday with National Duran Duran Appreciation Day.

so, uh, BOO-YA!

molto bene! now here's a question: what the hell is the difference between a bridge and a skyway? or is it just a matter of futurelingo lusting?

i can't answer that question per se, but i can tell you that the skyway is vastly more than a simple bridge.

we used to get "stoned" and go "roofriding" over it, whereby one person or even two at a time would climb (at 65mph +/-) out the back window of my friend's chevy stationwagon and up onto the roof rack where secure footing was feasible.

really good times.

mighty, i thinks i needs a skyway!

everyone needs a good "skyway" once in a while.
