I have an idea:

Bud Shuster's I-99 Ahead/Detour NOW!
:biggrin:

How about ...

Pennsylvania Ahead
Detour Now
Other than I-99 and Breezewood, what do you have against Pennsylvania?  :eyebrow:

It's a roadgeek custom to hate Pennsylvania and everything about it  :-/

So your statement undeneath your avatar "Fan of the DOT everybody loves" might be sarcastic or ironic.

Bart: Nowhere special.
Jim: Nowhere special? I always wanted to go there.
Bart: Come on.

"PennDOTFan" was originally meant to be a joke, since the entire roadgeek community hates PennDOT. While I'm not a huge fan of PennDOT, I don't really hate them, even though some things they do are annoying. Can't be too hard on the DOT for my home state.  :biggrin:

As a Pennsylvania native, I regret yet tolerate your hatred of me. Good thing I'm not gay, though...

PA is one of only two states I've visited where I can remember feeling that my own state DOT did a better job overall.

(NM is the other.)

I don't like that Pennsylvania invented some of the shittier signage features of the last 50 years: the '70 spec US and interstate route shields (as far back as 1965!), and Clearview.

hhhmmm...while I was in Utah (the Provo area) earlier this month, I never found any VMS sign read that anti-gay comment. :-/ If we on vacation see something like it, I don't need to explain it to my two sons under the "age of innocence" (7 years old) and my wife who's behind the wheel won't like it either, and we don't like intolerance or prejudice towards groups of people because of their social group status, including sexual orientation. Teach children to read first, but how equally important it is not to hate.
Get your kicks...on Route 99! Like to turn 66 upside down. The other historic Main street of America.
