    My cat was named after Zzyzx Road. The man that originally owned the land named it that because he wanted it to be "the last word"!

    I have a friend who lives on YY Road in Tunas, MO. When she was giving me the directions to her house, she told me to turn on ED Road - or DE Road....seems it depends on which direction you are driving what the name is!! :wink:

    I have been readingthese a laughing this morning.

    Some time ago I bought a book called "The Country Bride Quilt"

    Where was it published "Intercourse" in Pennsylvania.

    Made me smile when I read that.

    I grew up on Easy Street.
    There was also a Shades of Death road in Jersey. The sign kept getting stolen though. Seriously. I'm not making it up. There's even a Wiki article on it lol. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_Of_Death_Road

    A street in the heart of Santa Fe named "Burro Alley." Used to be too narrow for anything but burros. Just a tad wider now.
