Actually it is a road race. Sort of like driving in Boston and trying
to
get out of a round-a-bout. Or whatever those things is called.

They used to be called a "rotary". But, as the liberals have become more
influential over the years, they are now called "round-a-bouts".

I never called them a rotary nor did I call them a "round-a-bout".

I called them #$%%##$%*&*&&##@$$%%##$&**&*&^ pains in the ass.

Espiecally the one in Revere by the MTA station and the one in Lynn at
the Swampscott line.

Years ago, this state decided that rotaries were a traffic impediment and
safety hazard, so a program was funded to do away with them. Then, years
later, somebody realized that a rotary in a multi road intersection was the
most efficient way to move traffic safely, so they started rebuilding them.

Go figure.

One thing is for sure though. The traffic going over the Sagamore Bridge to
Cape Cod moves much better since they eliminated the rotary that existed for
years on the north side of the bridge.
Now they call it a "fly over".
