Would you stop making things up. Nobody has said that.

No, he needs to fly up to Barrow and hang out with Joe the Waterman. Joe was filing my water tank when we lived there 25 years ago.

Didn' t you notice it doesn't say what you claimed? It says that to only look at the highway system is an abject waste. Nobody has said not to see the highway system or that there is nothing there to look at.

I doubt you'll be able to ever catch him shoveling snow.

He does go to the bank wearing only a T-Shirt at -40F though. (Joe retired from delivering water a few years ago, and now runs Pepe's along with his mom, Fran. I still tease him that I used to get water by the barrel from him, and now all I can get is one damned glassful at a time.)

Why all the gratuitous insults? Just read what was actually said and stop making things up.
