On the Road Again

This has been posting I have been wanting to place for so very long. Pardon the tardiness, but it should be worth the wait.

So you might of caught my rant about the road signs in Phoenix, on 5/16/04 "One for the Road." I have a sequel now, but even better, I have photos to prove this madness of a rat-race town and how it melts the minds of its members.

Seems that Arizona Department of Transportation, affectionately dubbed ADOT got wind of my blog site and decided that I might have a good point on their hazardous electronic signs. July 1st we had to go down to the ever-burning city in the desert for a doctor's appointment for Ellie. On the road to the heat pit, we noticed that all of the electronic road signs had changed. Instead of tempting the speed racers to slam into a cement wall while looking for their cellphones in the cabin of their fiberglass coffins, ADOT feels that a website would better assist the hi-tech traveler. Here is proof.



As I was capturing the evidenced of their heat-warped thinking, our car passed this lady at 65 mph. Yes, she is calling someone... at 65 miles an hour.... oh boy, country boy in the city...
