Thats all of southern Illinois......I bought a brand new WHITE Altima in 96 2 weeks before we had to make a trip in july to my wifes family to show off the baby...they live out in "children of the corn" Centralia where all roads intersect at 4-ways between 500 miles of corn. After 2 days I gave up trying to keep the tar off the car and just came home and bathed my new car in diesel fuel to get all that crap off

Heh- except around here, they aren't hitting the really bad roads. They're blowing it on stupid shit in town- like "back in only" angled parking on one side. So you CANNOT park if you go into town the wrong direction. (And no, they're not one-way streets)
