Waco Update!
I made it into Waco at about 11pm last night and surprised one of my good friends who recently moved into her very own abode out here in Central Texas. But before I pulled into her complex I got a little turned around thanks to some vague directions given to me by Google Maps and I had to stop in at a local gas station to get directions and it went a little something like this:
Welcome to Waco, dearies!
Brandon: Do you know where Van American Way is?
Clerk: [blank stares at me for an uncomfortable length of time] No.
Brandon: Ok, thanks.
Clerk: [With the utmost indifference, drawls] You can use these phonebooks though.
Brandon: Great. [Goes to a stack of phone books on the other counter and pretends to thumb through the pages for about a minute, realizes it's not helping and slinks out while the clerk wasn't looking.]
Welcome to Waco, dearies!

Van American Way? Google maps is smoking drugs; that's a tiny side street that takes you around the *serious* long way. I only know it because I had to find someplace down there once in high school. It's named for a (defunct?) transport company that was called Van American Lines.
Do you think it was prejudice or stupidity?
You know, he looked like he just had a bad day...or a string of them.
