I was just reminded again what a horrible road that is, driving down and back from Lawn Guyland. And I reacquaited myself with just how bad NY drivers are.

CT should post a sign at the NY and RI borders---"Welcome to Connecticut--Construction Ahead"

7 mile delay from the CT River bridge to East Lyme, where one guy was working on the guardrail on the median, while 10 guys in safety vests and hard hats watched with their hands in their pockets. Fortunately I was heading the other way.

Tonight on the way home I hit the New Haven gridlock

And from the Throggs Neck to NH, enough bumps to launch a small car into orbit--it's not even a waste of GOOD asphalt.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
