No, Al has gotten the last laugh, but it isn't funny now, seeing the havoc that has been occurring.

This movie is of a roundabout in the UK - there are 2 of them one in Swindon and the other near MK/Hemel we call them the 'Magic Roundabouts'. They are fun !!

Flying cars? They have those now. Alcohol is typically the main factor.

Looks like a nightmare, but I counted over a hundred cars moving through that roundabout in less than three minutes. I’d say that pretty good for moving cars through a multi street intersection like that.

Interesting, but that round about/rotary had five or six entry/exit points. In addition, not sure who designed it but it didn't look safe or efficient.

Can you imagine one of those in TV . If someone came in on the wrong lane they would spend the rest of their days going around and around.

We are used to the British traffic circles and in our opinion, there is no better way to move traffic. Once you learn to navigate them they are great.

'Bitter Sweet Symphony' Credits And Royalties Given Back To The Verve By Jagger, Richards : NPR

P.S. Just funnin' with ya'! I love talking music...
Aerosmith had relevant music in the 90s, didn't mean they were founded in that decade. I agree about the Verve comment, but Morrissette had a lot more music than what you constantly hear on the radio!!! But I can't believe I forgot to include Tool. One of the most intelligent/complex rock music I've ever heard. There's also Nine Inch Nails that have some very danceable music, Three Doors Down, A Perfect Circle, Collective Soul, Our Lady Peace, I Mother Earth are more of my faves. If they're not yours, I don't care!
