John Galt return address

I just got an ad for a mail order steak company, and thought it must be a joke of some sort. The address was John Galt Blvd, Omaha NE!

So I looked it up, and yep, Omaha does indeed have a John Galt Blvd. In the process, I found roads in several other places named for JG as well. Maybe there are more of "us" out there than I thought!

    Looks like a good road trip to me!

    I had to look up Zzyzx Road. I may have to check it out - I'm doing the western half of Route 66 next year, so I won't be too far away.

    This is about a week behind, but I'm a Vette Guy, too, who does long road trips. Like to the end of Zzyzx Road. So using Google Maps, I postulated an interesting potential east to west road trip of Galt waypoints:
    John Galt Way, Florence, NJ / John Galt Way, Elkridge, MD / John Galt Way NW, Concord, NC / John Galt Way, Mt Pleasant, SC / John Galt Road, Beaufort, SC / John Galt Boulevard, Omaha, NE / John Galt Way, Arbuckle, CA

    My wife owns a bakery with a location on a Campus and I can tell you that I have noticed the same.

    I also got that mailer from Omaha Steaks and put it in the circular file with the rest of the trash. My cousin used to send me gift boxes from them and the meat was garbage IMO.

    I'm giving my last package of "free" burgers to a friend who brags that Nebraska beef is the best.

    We'll see what he says...

    I actually looked at the website, but after calculating the cost per pound, decided against ordering. Close to twice what I'm used to paying.

    Yep, got the same ad, yesterday.

    Made me consider putting in another order, but I wasn't overly impressed with the last one.

    Wow. This post sure went sideways in a hurry. I was just trying to give people a grin.

    In my experience, I have found that frequently [but not always] formal education and common sense tend to have an inverse relationship.

    Ok, first of all, you aren't apparently smart enough to know WHO you are responding to. I am NOT "D," but yet, your response comes in directly under MY comment. Smart, yeah, right. If you wanted to respond to "Dobrien," there's a "Reply" link directly under his comment. Pay attention, please.

    Second, I actively have avoided over time, without realizing it, reading your posts and/or comments. This is the first one I've actually paid attention to. And now I know why. It's that I actively work hard to NOT respond to silliness.

    Hence, I'm gone. Have the day you deserve.
