Rod hated figuring out which lane went where in the 'Spaghetti Bowl'. Such a perplexing tangle of roads! "Petunia, darling, which freeway do I need to get on again?"

Petunia, who had been sitting on the directions, lifted up her skirt a little to pull the paper out that she'd been covering. "Um... I think it's I-15 North. Wait-- I-80 West." She seemed uncertain as she looked at the paper. "Actually, it seems they merge into one through here."

Rod pulled over in the Home Depot parking lot and looked at the paper. "It's not very clear, is it?" he grumbled.

"Why don't you just go inside and ask for help?" Petunia suggested.

"If I ask for directions at a 'man store'," Rod responded, "they'll think I'm square."

Petunia sighed. "Fine. Then at least pull in to the Conoco across the street. We definitely need to shed a little light on this."
