I wasn't in Colorado Springs for more than a few days when a truck ran into the car my buddy was driving. Luckily there wasn't any damage, but it sure did serve as...wait for it...a crash course ...in survival driving. Maybe it's because the military here is used to driving tanks or the transplants aren't used to experiencing snow - or manners - but these drivers are aggressive! And when those same folks are all parked on the freeway heading to or from the mountains on the weekends, let's just say their disposition doesn't get any sweeter.
Fortunately, the street names like the blase one shown provide a little comic relief. And according to this blog post, they get as wacky as: A Dog Will Lick His Butt But Won't Eat A Pickle Rd., 100 Year Party Ct., Big Foot Crossing, Incorrigible Circle, Jackass Hill Rd, and the one U2 may have been describing in this song, No Name Lane.
