On the Road

Things that I learned on my trip to Texas:
  1. Sonic
    • Commercials are completely erroneous! It isn't a drive-thru as portrayed, but a freaking DRIVE IN! Totally different!
    • Also see Kizzle below.
  2. Arkansas
    • Apparently if you rearrange the letter in it you will get shithole.
    • Anyone ever notice that it can be split into Ar - Kansas. Hmmmm.
    • The ratio of standing billboards to not is really very unfavorable.
  3. Lonanoke
    • Pronounced like Roanoke, except with an "L"
    • Town in Arkansas with nothing in it.
    • Not particularly impressed by their cleanliness.
  4. Kizzle
    • Actual name of worker at Sonic.
    • Idiot.
    • Cannot understand how to work a credit card.
    • Everything henceforth blamed on him.
  5. Garmin
    • Is not God.
    • When it tells you to turn off the beaten path for no good reason, ignore.
    • It will recalculate.
    • Do not rely on it.
  6. Carefree Inn
    • Do not stay at.
    • Icemaker is out in parking lot.
  7. La Quinta
    • Only hotel I know of that I wasn't afraid of the sheets
  8. Construction workers wear cowboy hats....enough said
