Things You Can Learn During a Car Ride - And Then Some

The trip to New Orleans begins. During the 6-hourish car ride, here are the things we learned:

1) Arby's is the ultimate travel food. (In addition to Dairy Queen of course.)
2) You can always find entertainment in a gas station. (read: cowboy hats and gummy snakes...maybe some pictures to come?)
3) The Verve Pipe's "The Freshman" is a great song.
4) No one can follow Mer and me...."Oooo! Chuck E Cheese!" "Sweet!"
5) Roadside attractions make a roadtrip (read: Buc-ee's)
6) Debate why a casino billboard has the number to a gambling problem hotline at the bottom.
7) McDonald's apparently needs a spotlight on the roof at 12 am.
8) Louisiana has fun bumpy roads.
9) Alanis Morissette's "Ironic" should have said "Isn't it a coinkydink, don't you think?"
10) There is apparently such a thing as a "fancy" version of "Rocky Top." And by fancy, we mean it is sung by a woman, has techno beats, and is a more modern version of the ridiculous song.

Best quote for the night: Random guy "I'm a smoker. My lungs are black." Billy "You're fine."
Funniest find: Bangkok Spa
Drink tip for the day: You can't make you're own Hand Grenades. But they are delicious here!
Tip for the night: Don't pee on peoples cars. At least use a wall.

And, I am the only person that walking down the street can get something stabbed in their foot. Yea. I am that lucky.

Here is looking forward to tomorrow and more great finds!
