I missed one lousy exit on the PA turnpike and had to drive 45 minutes out of my way.  Why doesn't the turnpike allow for mistakes?

The turnpike, evidently, is evil. . I feel for you, that would have made me nuts.

James Hetfield of Metallica was detained in London due to his "taliban-like" beard a few days ago.

Although Metallica's travel and touring visas are solidified, unlike a few other grounded bands, James Hetfield and co. ran into a few roadblocks while traveling to the London installment of Live Earth last Saturday (June 7). According to U.K.'s The Times, Metallica's infamously dramatic frontman James Hetfield was detained in London's Luton Airport upon the band's arrival. The motivation for his questioning and detainment, although unexplained by airport officials or the police on hand, is speculated to have been motivated by Hetfield's "Taliban-like" beard. Following a brief questioning, which Hetfield was able to navigate by explaining he was a "rock star," bloggers have offered their opinions on the fracas, some finding it hilarious, while others cite despicable profiling, and some praising the officers' decision to detain the rocker in light of the U.K.'s recent terrorist attacks.

No. It was simply this.

A music fan realized who it was, and since Metallica Sucks, decided to treat them appropriately.

Level,
Congrats on the low numbers!  Wish I could say the same.  I try to be good but I love sweets and bread sooooo much.  Hey, I use Splenda instead of sugar.  That's something, right?

Anyway, my miscellaneous info is just to recommend the new James Lee Burke book to you.  "The Tin Roof Blow Down" is the title - it's a Dave Robicheaux one - and I'm a few chapters in.  At the end of chapter one, I had goosebumps.  God, I love JLB.  I hope he lives another 100 years or so and writes a new Robicheaux addition every year.  I never get tired of them.  I can't say I was as impressed with his book of short stories that came out last month - "Jesus Out To Sea."  He's just not cut out to write short stories.  He needs the length that a novel provides in order to really shine.  Anyway, I figure you are probably already reading it but, if not, run right out and get a copy.  As always, JLB is superb.  Stay healthy.............luci 

Thanks for the encouragment, luci. My blood sugar has crept up the last couple of days, but I'm still keeping it under 100 with no meds. I think the coming week will tell the tale .
