Hello to the great wide world of the information superhighway. This DAMU interstate is a stretch of road I am well familiar with as I have been travelling on it for nearly a decade. In fact, I have purchased temporary ownership of this stretch of road and have been busily filling in the potholes created by the angry spinouts of the passion-filled DAMU’ites as they speed by.

We have learned what causes those potholes. We really have. Over ten years of similar scenery and we can pretty accurately put up traffic warning signs and alert those on the road ahead of what to anticipate.

As a self-designated worker on this stretch, I hope my life, and my experiences will be helpful and interesting to those who drive by.
