Roadside America

Before I got to professional conventions, I like to stop by Roadside America to see what odd things might be in the area. This is how I found the Rosicrucian Museum in San Jose.

Last time we went to go see Grandma, our attempt to stop for fast food right off of PA Turnpike Exit 67 (Irwin) was foiled by construction. The local McDonalds was being turned into a McDonald's museum.

No, no wait, we heard that wrong. It's apparently a Big Mac Museum. Just the Macs, ma'am.

I am absurdly pleased that this new addition to American kitsch will open along one of my usual travel routes.

Homophonics strikes again!

ABC News Headline: Astronaut Nowak to Speak Her Peace.

*headdesk*

I read the article in the hopes that the title was the lead-in to some sort of bad news pun; you know, Nowak seeking to "make peace" with Capt. Shipman or somesuch.

Nope.

ABC frickin' News. *headdeskdeskdesk*
