Juliebird: Thank you! And...interesting. I think if you did that in Seattle it would cause automotive mayhem similar to Snow (just SAY that word and watch traffic back up for 3 hours; I'm not kidding - happened last winter, one radio weather forecaster mentioned the possibility of snow (that never fell), traffic went straight to perdition)

Jughandles are dogs-and-cats-living-together.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Huh. I did not know what those were called. Other than annoying. There are a few in the western 'burbs here.

Jughandles in my world are cloverleafs.

I can't remember if I hated Order of Phoenix or Half Blood Prince? Do I want to see it?

Cloverleafs in my world are exit/entrance ramps for a highway. [link]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There's one on Western for the on-ramp to 90/94 (if you're driving South on Western).

It confused me the first time I saw it....

I think the difference between cloverleafs and jughandles is a jughandle forces you to cross the traffic you were just a part of, requiring a light or stop signs?

So my blinds arrived today. They are in a stack on the floor. Atop them are 2 cats.

Around here, they just leave packages on the front porch. Freaks me out. Anyone could take it! OK, why anyone would want custom blinds, but still. It just seems weird no signature was required.

They are talking about putting a roundabout at a crazy ass intersection near me. I don't know how I feel about this. The intersection is ridiculous, it has something like 5 or 6 roads coming together and there is no easy way to get the lights to make it anything but time consuming. However, this is Baltimore. No one knows how to handle a roundabout.

Yes, you do! It's supposed to be the more lighthearted of the last few films, and you know that the final movie(s) are going to be all intense and no fun at all. Of course, there's the big sad ending, but lots of comedy and romance in between.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Near my parents they want to put a circle on a road that is so old that the fronts of the houses are already right up against the sidewalks (all their historic lilacs were long since sacrificed to new sewage pipes). The circle would never be able to handle the size of the trucks that use that road.
