Which ones have you been on?

The ones that would take me where I wanted to go.

Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[oceanperch]

highway 101
I-5


Travel both on a reg. basis.

"Moose, sister, cheese, etc "

This is series!

All your flatslabs belong to us!

[DeFault User]

uhhhh.... BINGO!

[Fifth Business]

I paid for the Internet, but now I'm having misgivings.

[lawdude]

"Route 60- now that was a highway! "

I spent from 1963-1977 on Hiway 54 in Kansas, behind some damn John Deere!

"Aircraft carriers. You paid for them. How many have you been on?"

Just one. USS John F. Kennedy CVA-67.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I have. From one end to the other.

Don't lose any sleep over paying for highways that you haven't drove on. It looks like you've got them all covered.

[rs79bm]

Here are the ones I've been on, based on memory, broken down by state

You're kidding, right?

[Hank Rearden]

I've got a neighbor just like you. He does regression analysis on local rainfall data and has carried on a correspondence with the US Treasury (I've seen the file!) on the continued desirability of minting pennies.

Both of ya need more to do in life.

I-4, I-5, I-10, I-12, I-15, I-17, I-20, I-24, I-25, I-30, I-35, I40, I-55, I-57, I-59, I-64, I-65, I-70, I-71, I-75, I-76, I-77 I-80, I-85, I-90, I-95

Poorman, a truck driver, has been on every Interstate highway in the continental USA.

I rode with him for a year and saw most of those I-highways.

[petuniasevan]

thousands=thousand.

Hawaii has interstates. H-1, H-2, H-3. Don't ask why.

[tallhappy]

Never thought about it. I like stuff like this.

How about counting up how many different states you've been in.

[paulklenk]

When you're done compiling this list, take an afternoon off and have a lie down, or, organize your lint.

Thanks for being interesting,

Me

[TOTAL RECALL]

Outside of California, only I-5 comes to mind, but I'm sure I hit more than a few going from NYC to DC a couple years ago, and then whatever the Beltway is called.

But there are a heck of a lot of them just north of here around San Francisco and San Jose, including I-5, I-80, (I'm gonna stop putting I in front of every one 'cause that's not how we say it here) 280, 380, 580, 680, 880, 205, 405 (LA), and that's about all I can think of right now. I almost exclusively drive on CA highways when moving about, including 17, 1, 152, 129. I also drive on 101 quite a bit, but that's a federal highway (not interstate and no red/white/blue sign, I don't really get it but it's officially called US-101).

I-4, I-5, I-10, I-12, I-15, I-17, I-20, I-24, I-25, I-30, I-35, I40, I-55, I-57, I-59, I-64, I-65, I-70, I-71, I-75, I-76, I-77 I-80, I-85, I-90, I-95

BINGO!!!!!!!!!
