Adult cards passed out on Strip in Vegas? -

What are these about , friend got over 700 of them in just 3 nights

They are just card they hand out!! With girls on the front and they are advertising coming over to your place/hotel and doing very sexxxy strip shows or escort services.. Its kind a scam, it will say specials for $79 bucks but when they get to your hotel they said oh no its $200 in hour and escorting is $300-$500, it says $79-$100 cheap to get you call.. If you really want to know where the girls are you ask a cabbie and they for sure will hook you up with better deals and no BS.

They are information, many representing on call escorts though prostitution is illegal. They cannot be stopped due to freedom of speech issues. Visitors, like locals, just need to say NO, ignore them, keep walking.

They re aggrevating. People just end up throwing them away and they are thrown all over the sidewalks. Disgusting.

I-95 - why there are so many tolls north of DC and none to the south? -

One can go from DC to Miami with no tolls. But try to go north and every single state has one or more toll booth. I always wanted to know why. Thank you!

Because the states north of DC all paid to have I-95 built before federal highway funds became available. The states south of DC didn t have the road built on their own because it really didn t help them as especially through NC, SC, and GA I-95 goes through primarily rural areas. So they built their sections only with federal highway funds. One of the strings with the federal funds was the roads could not be tolled.There used to be a toll on 95 south of DC. The section between Richmond and Petersburg was originally known as the Richmond-Petersburg Turnpike and was tolled up until 1992.

My guess is that a lot of out of state people tend to drive along the I-95 corridor from DC to NY to Boston--and if you re, say, Delaware you can make a quick buck off of those out of staters by putting up a tollbooth on I-95. In general if you re a politician and you can shift the tax burden to someone who can t vote for you, that s a no brainer.On the other hand there are hardly any out of state drivers in CA, and as a result there are no toll roads in the state so far as I know...

Not true.Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts don t have tolls on I95 specifically.Why, it started as a way to fund the building and maintenance of the road. Once the tolls are established the state gets used to the income. Even though I95 has been paid for many times over, the states still want da $.

If the liberal politicians in the northeast could tax the air they would. Let s look at who the voters elect to represent them in those states. Schumer and the Kennedy Klan.And by the way, I am a life long Democrat and voted for Barry Obama in the last election. But, I know crooks when I see them...and the northeast states is loaded with them.

The earlier answers are OK, but in my opinion, it s because Virginia, NC, SC, and FL are normal while MD, Delaware, and NJ aren t. They are just money-grubbing.

It s complicated, but there is a good state-by-state history here: http://www.interstate-guide.com/i-095.ht�� under I-95 Toll Road History.

Things to do and good restaurants around CUS? -

Hey folks :) I am coming into Chicago this Friday by Amtrak, and I have 6 hours to kill between 930 am and 330 pm any suggestions of places to get a good meal? And I know about Willis Tower, what are some other things that I could do to kill some time? Thanks

There are a lot of attractions in the wonderful city of Chicago, yes you can see the willis tower (but we still call it the sears tower) but that costs a lot. Most of the attractions are downtown and some of them are: Millenium and Grant Park, The museums(Field Museum, Planetarium, Shedd Aquarium, Museum of Science and Industry [which isn t in downtown], Art Museum who just built a Modern wing, MCA [museum of Contemporary Art]) you can see the zoos, Brookfield Zoo and Lincoln Park zoo, The baseball stadiums, Wrigley Field and U.S. Cellular (Comiskey), You can empty you re wallet on Michigan Ave, you can shop some more on State, you can visit the Chicago Theater, or see the bears lose at Soldier Field. To see a great view of Chicago you can go to the John Hancock Tower and go to the top, go in through the side and not to the observation deck there you can go up to the restaurant and see the view for free, you might get kicked out if you don t buy something and you can just buy a drink but everyone in your group has to purchase something. For food you can get some Chicago style food, try out Portillo s downtown, they have a hot dog with all the trimmings, which if you didn t know already are onions, neon relish, tomatoes, a pickle, celery salt, sport peppers and mustard all on a hot dog in a poppy seed bun, You can also try another Chicago food at Portillo s the Italian Beef. Or you can go to Giordano s, Lou Malnati s, or Pizzeria Uno s for a deep dish pizza. Another non-Chicago style restaurant that in downtown that I like is Heaven on Seven
