Funny 4th of July experience

Post by Narsia Ny'Dhun »

The family and I drove up to Vegas and just puttered around the casinos for a few hours. Nothing special, but better than nothing at all.

Anyway, on the way home, we passed by a highway sign for a turnoff. It said, "Zzyzx RD 1 mile". I looked at this, then looked back as we passed because I couldn't believe what I'd seen. Then a moment of silence, until I said "I think I know where the aliens landed."

The whole car busted up laughing.

And that was the funny thing that happened to me over the holiday weekend.

Nice story ;)

I wonder what Zzyzx RD is?

Well, RD is the abbreviation for "road". So someone actually named a stretch of pavement, Zzyzx road. And if that's not an alien word I don't know what is. :p

Ahh I see.

I thought it might stand for "Research & Development" which again would be a good name for an alien company operating on Earth ;)
