Giddy-Up Giddy-Up 409 Whoops! 3

I got no license to drive the 409 on the 405. Better stay home.

Dick Destiny explains how licentious outsourcing led to unlicensed California drivers.

It’s a mind-boggling tale of how pathetic public-private partnership phleeces the polity.

Aside:

And, by the way, what’s with this “the” stuff in how Californians address their highways? Never figured that out.

Nobody east of the Donner Pass would say, for example, “the 95” or “the 80.”

    Nice beat, easy to dance to, catchy lyrics.  I give it a seven.

    Second up, The Little Old Lady from Pasadena. “She’s the terror of Colorado Boulevard.” Which I’ve never actually called “boulevard.”

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
