“ Visitor’s Guide To Bummin’ham Alebamy“

First you must learn how to pronounce the city name
BUM / MIN / HAM

Drivin Structions Fer Bummin’ham ;
Bummin’ham has it’s own version of traffic views -

# 1 ~
The Truck with the Loudest exaust goes 1st at the 4-way Stop

# 2 ~
The truck with the biggest tires goes next -

# 3 ~
Lil Blue Haired Ladies always have the right of way any time -

# 4 ~
To find anything in this city
you must first Locate I-20 / I-59 / I-65 malfunction junction
which is the Alpha & Omega, the big inning & the end.
It is one of the only two Backward CLOVERLEAF Formation
Interchanges in the Entire World.
We invented and instituted it and only one other city was ever
STUPID enough to build another one like it again, {Atlanta},
making them Gawigans even DUMBER than us !

# 5 ~
The Morning Rush Hour Is 5:00 AM til 11:00 AM

# 6 ~
The Evenin Rush Hour Is 3:00 PM til 8 PM

# 7 ~
Friday Rush Hour is Thursday 5:00 AM til Saturday Noon
If the term ‘mergin delays’ is ever used by anyone, you must
call in and tell them that you are gonna be 30 minutes late !

# 8 ~
If you ever stop fer a Yella Lite, you will be rear ended,
cussed out and possibly shot.
{This applies to both male & female drivers alike}

# 9 ~
You Must Know that “I-20“, “I-59”, “I-65” and “I-459”
Are The SAME Road, they just loop and loop around the city.
It is a ploy to confuse all outsiders and discouraging them
yankee visitors that keep on coming hear ever since that war
of Northern Aggression.

# 10 ~
Always find out if it is a RACE Weekend before you git an a road.
Ifn it is You had better stay home or else you will be caught
in that traffic and end up at the race NO MATTER WHAT.

# 11 ~
Road CONSTRUCTION is permanent in Bommin’ham.
They move around them thar barrels & cones in the middle of
every night just to confuse you each morning thus making
the next day’s driving a bit more exciting.

# 12 ~
Watch Out CAREFULLY For Road Hazzards
Skunks, cats, deer, barrels, dogs, cones, cows, pigs,
potholes, horses, rabbits, armadillos, truck tires,
raccoons, opossums, squirrels, chickins, dirty diapers,
pieces of other cars, bed springs, Kids, People and Steel
Coils falling off of flat bed trucks.

# 13 ~
If somebody actually has their turn lites on, you must wave them
over to the shoulder and tell them that they are on and
confusing everybody.

# 14 ~
The minimum speed limit on the innerstate hiways is 55 mph
which really means 85 mph in Alebamy numbers.
Anythang else is considered downrite sissy.
This is the Alabamy State Hiway Departments Version of NASCAR
especially during Rush hour which everybody in Bommin’ham is
agoing bumper to Bumper.

# 15 ~
Do NOT Gawk at our wimmin folk while they are applying
Makeup, atalkin on their cell phone, smoking a Marlboro, drankin
a diet coke, eatin a country ham biskit while maintainin 85 mph
In rush hour traffic.
If she is acommin from north of Bommin’ham, she may be apakin.
If she is acommin from south of Bommin’ham, she is apackin and
Not afeared to shoot.
