NPR's traffic reports have started calling 88 "The Reagan" so its years as a number are probably, er, numbered.

And once, ONLY ONCE, I heard this:

Guy #1: So you take the Heinz about 30 miles 'til you hit-
Guy #2: The Heinz? What the fuck?
Guy #1: You know. The Heinz. Highway 57. Like Heinz 57 sauce.
Guy #2: Oh. Yeahokay. So I take the Heinz out?

Personal lingo? Probably. But I liked it. :)

Thanks, I didn't realize that. I figured the days were numbered since they're posted signs calling it the Reagan. When I lived in Naperville, I couldn't find a station that would mention it in the traffic report, unless there was a major disturbance (the daily accidents at Naperville Rd didn't count).

I like the Heinz. If that petition circulates, I'll sign it. :-)
