Weather is looking real bad...

Ya I've been reading about it. I'm concerned for folks both driving and flying in tomorrow. I used to drive up and down from Southern IL all the time, so I know how nasty the storms can get. Don't try to be a hero, pull over if you see that nasty green sky ahead of you. ;) Drive safely and we'll see you at the fest!
 
Dude, you better be serious and not joking.....
I can tolerate a lot of your dark jokes, but this one would not be laughable.

I never heard you tell this tale before, which is why I am skeptical.

Anyone I know or have ever met?

If anyone is traveling up the I-57, there is a good porno shop in Buckley, IL, in case you feel the need to "toss one out" in the quarter video preview booth.
(Not that I know anything about these sorts of booths, nor do I know what a "glory hole" is)
 
Yeah, there's always a lot of lunatics along 55.
When I used to go to Bradley University in Peoria, there would always be a bunch of crazy asses at the gas stations in Chenoa (10 minutes south of Pontiac on I-55).
I knew I shouldn't stop at the rest stops by myself but didn't think gas stations were a threat.
One time I was coming back home for Thanksgiving, after my last night class, so it was really late....like 10 at night or something. I had stopped at the gas station right off the exit to Chenoa.
While I was putting gas in my car, this dude in a yellow sportscar kept staring at me. After I was done, I got into my car and started back towards the highway when I noticed the yellow sportscar right behind me. Didn't think anything of it until he started tailgating me at a very dangerous distance going 70 miles an hour down the highway. I would slow down thinking he would pass me but of course he didn't, so he basically followed me like that all the fuck to Kankakee. He was obviously just fucking with me, but it scared the shit out me.
So yeah....that's my experience while driving through Central/ Southern Illinois.

As for the weather....be careful driving! The winds can get really bad driving on those open highways.
Be careful and see you at the Fest!
 
yeah...she was in my Wedding Party actually. back when I was married. My wedding video is full of dead people now....kind of scary.

Oh, I think I actually do recall this...
You can never be too careful.

I used to do a lot of driving on the I-57 for school, but only being 2 1/2 hours away, there wasn't much stopping along the way.
 
I just never got the whole strip club thing. yeah...lets toss my hard earned money away on girls that would never give me the time of day outside that club. Call old fashion, I am not the type to hoot and hollar at girls and get off on watching dance around on a stage. Call me an old hoot or whatever. I think it is lame to go and drop tons of money on girls that could care less about you and probably laugh at you when you leave. I am an old fashion person when it comes to the ladies...the open the door for them, unlock thier car door first, not out to get laid for a one night stand type of a guy. I guess there isnt room on this earth for my type anymore. I guess that is why I spend so much time here.
