This stimulus bullshit is awesome for our roads. There are soo many that used to be all fucked up that are now brand new fresh paved.

Heh- except around here, they aren't hitting the really bad roads. They're blowing it on stupid shit in town- like "back in only" angled parking on one side. So you CANNOT park if you go into town the wrong direction. (And no, they're not one-way streets)

they do the chip seal ("tar and chip") stuff here too... thing is, they do it too late so the road is already effed so all the process really does is make already screwed up roads worse.
