My next post will be a list of APs from Vegas to LA to SF. I guess I was only taking the AP list half seriously on the way out, as I didn't have GPS data, so it isn't exactly useful.. Its just "cute".

As for pictures, I had a disposable camera, so at some point I will get those developed and scan them. My digital camera got stolen awhile back..

As for wacky observations on life and the countryside.. I'm going to make "Nick's Guide of How to Get the Fuck out of Jersey" whenever I have the pictures..

Could have. But I guess I found myself more interested in driving 100 miles per hour while singing along with Frank Black tunes, then searching for places to write & post.. :) Yes, I know I'm lame.

] What happened to the Fell Street exit?

Dude, they took it. Its gone. I was shocked, at first I thought I was in error about something, but no, I'm not nuts (in that way).. It was there, but its gone. The exit, the overpass, all of it, gone. There appears to be no even remotely easy way to get to the Sunset now. Or the Western Edition for that matter.. Everything dumps you downtown now.

Little things are different all over town actually.. Its clear I've been gone for two years.

I have a theory.. Traffic here is down, way down, from what it was when we used to commute from the city to the valley.. "Someone" has determined that commute times home must be the same, regardless of the eased traffic.. So in order to achieve this, they removed the Fell St exit to make sure it still takes you at least a hour and a half to get anywhere..

Just a theory..
