Round-abouts.

When I was growing up, there was a statue in a major intersection in a near by city.  When cars entered the intersection, they simply drove around the statue in a counter-clock-wise manner. It was called a round-about.  But, some forward thinking highway officials decided that the statue must go.  So, it was moved to a nearby park and replaced by a much more efficient traffic light.

But now a days, forward thinking highway officials are replacing traffic lights with round-abouts.  I wonder if they will move the statue back to where it was originally?

Senior Discount At Vital Records.

Since I couldn’t find my birth certificate, I needed to get a copy so that I could retire from the State of Michigan.  When I went to the county clerks office for the document, I found out that they offered a senior discount.  Nice!  I guess that the older you get, the less likely it is that you will need one.
