I’ve got a picture that I took a few years ago. That’s all I need. ---

I was saying that I wouldn’t have gone out of my way to get a sign with “666” on it. Maybe if it was Highway 9, or Highway 8, but not 666. ---

In Berkeley, at a onramp, there’s a signpost that has two interstate highway signs. One says “I80 east” the other, "I580 west. Same ramp, same road. ---
