LMAO.. Not that I'm aware of Rena, no Road Street...lol

But one of our main, major Highways right outside of Philly, the one the race track is on, is called "Street Road," different huh? Smiley

But...another thing is, west of the city is Lancaster, where all the "Amish" live and where they filmed the movie "Witness" we have the strangest names for towns there. Just to name a few...

Intercourse, PA.

Puseyville, PA.

Blue Balls, PA

Paradise, PA....

Weird huh? Smiley

We must not a had real thinkers when they came up with these...lol.. Smiley

So, I'll take Street Road any day...lol

Getting ready for the big hockey game tonight...game 7...
Smiley

Go Flyers!!! Smiley

I'm gonna need it!!!

So you know how DJ is wondering why there are more adults than children with MM on this site? What about people from Philly as opposed to anywhere else? Does this make three of us or are there even more?

I can't say I want to move back to Philly as the northeast weather doesn't do anything for me but I do really miss Philly...but I found a great cheesesteak down here in Austin! And they used to have water ice too! (but the place closed down...maybe there is another place?)

Isn't ice "water". Anyways, just curious... Sara

It is kinda like sorbet but not...I have never really been able to explain it but for me it is the best because it is really cheap, really yummy, and (at least in my mind) a fairly low cal dessert.

You never had Philly's water ice? Smiley

I like Rita's water ice the best!! It's compact flavored ice. Similar to a "slurpee" (Ever have a slurpee?) Only this water ice is much better!!! (IMO) Smiley

We also are the Hoagie and cheese steak capital!...lol Cheesy

I do know others from here in Philly who have mm. I don't have any idea if it all means anything, but I talk to at least three others. Smiley
