A friend of mine pointed out that they should have added that you can't get to the airport on Airport Road.

#16: turn signals are a sign of weakness.

We always called the baptist church on Gov "Jesus on a blender." Then they put up the big stainless steel bell tower and we change the name to the Alabama God and Rocket Center.

Loved the article.

This actually confused me for a while when I moved here. Took me a month to realize there was no airport.

The old runways are still there. You might be from Huntsville if you ever flew out of the old airport.

#17. Riding in the left lane in Madison blvd from wall Triana to merge into 565 all the way down near arsenal exit at slow speeds is the norm. Never too soon to get into the left lane

#19 Ask anyone here where they "are from." It seems no one is actually from Huntsville.
