People had been saying that FritzOwl was getting old and stale—or, in another word, reasonable—in comparison to the fresh new upstart Poiponen and his prime-number-using ways.

FritzOwl showed what made him the original Fictional Highways king by just declaring new prime numbers by fiat.

Sometimes I miss the day of the Nevada Test Site Interstate and Lee Vining Canyon/Tioga Pass zig-zag grade.

the Nevada Test Site Interstate

Isn't that basically just I-11?

Nah, that conceptually doesn't get any closer than Mercury.  Fritz wanted to run through the middle of the test craters.

Some of Fritz's ideas were good.  For instance, there's a pretty good case for 101 from L.A. to S.F. becoming I-3, especially if there was extra upgrade or maintenance money attached to interstates.  But then there's so many ideas that are just awful.

Fritz just wasn't Fritz anymore after his bizarro world host page for his maps went defunct.

Sure, when your goal is to upgrade everything to an Interstate, you're bound to actually have one good idea in there.

What does that mean?

Well, you see, it's a long story. It starts way back when I was just a little bitty boy, living in a box under the stairs, in the corner of the basement of the house, half a block down the street from Jerry's Bait Shop. You know the place. Well anyway, back then, life was going swell, and everything was just peachy. Except, of course, for the undeniable fact that every single morning, my mother would make me a big bowl of sauerkraut for breakfast. Every single morning. It was driving me crazy.

So I said to my mom, "Hey, Mom, what's up with all the sauerkraut?" And my dear, sweet mother...she just looked at me like a cow looks at an oncoming train. And she leaned right down next to me and said, "It's good for you." Then, she tied me to the wall and stuck a funnel in my mouth, and force fed me nothing but sauerkraut until I was twenty-six-and-a-half years old.

That's when I swore that someday, I would get out of that basement. And that I would travel to a magical, far away place, where the sun is always shining, and the air smells like warm root beer, and the towels are oh-so-fluffy. A place where the Shriners and the lepers play their ukuleles all day long, and anyone on the street will gladly shave your back for a nickel.

Well, let me tell you, it wasn't long at all before my dream came true. Because the very next day, a local radio station had this contest to see who could correctly guess the number of molecules in Leonard Nimoy's butt. I was off by three, but I still won the grand prize...a first-class, one-way ticket to Albuquerque.

Vintage quote (much like their signs were) from the NJ Turnpike thread -

Any real New Jerseyian knows that these [toll collection notices] aren't send via email.  They are sent care of Fats Tony from the Newark Mafia, and Bubba ain't leaving till you pay up, or else you and your EZ Pass will be swimming with the fishies!

Now I'm left wondering, what will be next from P13? Will he make a new thread, or will he abandon AARoads?

[hotdogPi]

He's banned. The question is if he makes a new account.

[Shedingtonian]

Part of me is very happy to hear this. But the other part is kinda sad that it might never hear his bogus ideas ever again.
Which, if he comes back to share them, will be easily identifiable and will get him banned again quickly.

[Max Rockatansky]

Don't be so sure, there has been similar posters since the forum began and some are difficult to tell apart.  How do you think the legend of Alanland began?
