Home sweet home.
I was back east visiting my sick grandmother, parents, and high-school friends. A roundtrip twenty hours of driving on fucking I-80.
On I-80, somewhere in the middle of godforsaken Pennsylvania, the road is barcoded for a short segment. In both directions, there is a segment with srtipes of yellow and white paint running perpendicular to the direction of travel. I suppose that's how they test out different types of road paint, but all I could think of is what would happen if some linux geek drove by with a laptop and a :CueCat. What would the road say? "Yes, you're still in Pennsylvania." or "Do you really want to go to Ohio?" or "Isn't it illegal to reverse engineer one of those things?"
