You Should Be Dancing...Yeah?

The modern U.S. Interstate Highway System was, and is, one of the greatest public works projects in history. President Eisenhower signed into law the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 as a way of standardizing all highways. Since the act became a reality the United States has become a nation on the paved road. Unfortunately the system is so crowded with cars and trucks that actually shutting down the highways to repair them is an impossibility.  

Ann: "You are the worst driver.  We're all over the road."
Kire: "The highway is dancing."
Ann: "That's not funny."
Kire: "Yes it is.  Just because you didn't laugh out loud, you know you laughed internally."
Ann: "Get out of the breakdown lane!"
Kire: "This is the way the road is going.  They're working on lane four and are using the breakdown lane as a traffic lane."
Ann: "You almost hit the guardrail.  It's not funny that your trying to kill us."
Kire: "It's not my fault the guardrail is bent and sticks out into the lane."
Ann: "Why are you swerving?"
Kire: Because when the highway is dancing you've got to dance with it!"
