Just for Fun: In a gas station bathroom, I once saw a light switch next to the light fixture...on the ceiling! Have you ever seen anything odd, and/or useless, like that? Yes, I remember a drive through at a Taco Bell in San Angelo, TX that was odd. The drive up window was on the passenger's side of your vehicle. You had to reach all the way across the passenger's front seat in your car to get the food and give them the money or have someone in the passenger's seat do it. I can't imagine why they decided to design the drive through that way. It was crazy..lol.
Hmm.. It might have been a drive-through that was previously used in England.. Either that or the contractor made a wrong turn somewhere and ended up in San Antonio.. instead of London.
Location: The Circle City. Sometimes NE of Bagdad.

I'm not much of a sports fan in general, but I do enjoy attending Rockies games at Coors Field mainly because the venue is so nice. There's nothing like a hot dog and a beer on a breezy afternoon at the ballpark!
I'm not following the World Cup, but it's on all day at my work, so I tend to catch bits and pieces of it. Several people in my office love soccer, so they fill me in.

When I was in college I rented a 100+ year old house made out of rocks in the desert outside of Tucson. There were several of these little houses that were part of an old ranch that had long since closed. My neighbors rock house only had plumbing in the kitchen, so the toilette was out in the open next to the kitchen sink. It made for interesting dinner parties.
