Going through the toll booth this morning on the way to work, I noticed the toll-guy seemed unusually distracted and didn’t meet my eyes once. I paid my $0.20 and drove past, thinking, “Hmm?” Look down, and I notice my skirt is hiked up all the way to my hip somehow. :eek: Luckily I am wearing pantyhose, but still that’s a lot of thigh to be showing to someone I only just met! My coworker says I was trying to get out of the toll and that’s not the correct meaning of **EZPass**. 😃 ---

And people say toll collectiong is a crap job. Just out of curiosity, if you live north of here, and presumably work here, how do you end up on a toll road? ---

Once a month I have to drive to Schenectady for our Board Meeting. I take Rte 7 to I-890 there, but on the way back I take the Thruway cause I’m coming back to Albany. Are you still going to loan me that book? Please? ---
