Hi Bonnie,

>Sounds like you used to live in Atlanta, like me (I lived in Marietta for 15 years). George always manages to say something that makes me homesick ... gotta love those Waffle Houses!! < bg >

Me too. There are at least two in Cartersville< g >.

>Speaking of I-285, don't know if you ever heard the story of the rookie pitcher for the Braves who was late to a baseball game because he got on I-285 and drove for hours and didn't realize that he was driving in circles around the city. George ... back me up on this story, will ya? I don't remember who the guy was.

Oh yeah, that was Pascal Perez. I'm not sure about the spelling of the first name though. His teammates gave him a jersey with I-285 when he was with the Braves.

To friends who visit from out of town, we tell them, "You might think it's called 285 because that's the interstate number. Nope! It's called that because the people think it's the speed limit."< g >
