LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

67 is the highest two-digit odd number not presently designating any highway in the Interstate Highway System of the United States.
How about this one:
Quote from: http://lifehacker.com/these-little-known-rules-of-the-road-help-you-drive-sma-1774558491
Your highway number is another indication of where you’re headed. Interstate highways follow an odd or even numbering system.

If the highway has an odd number, it’s traveling north-south and the numbers increase from the West Coast (I-5) to the East Coast (I-95). If the highway is even, it’s traveling east-west, and the numbers should increase from south (I-10) to north (I-94). Of course, sometimes highways veer off in different directions for a while, but as the Federal Highway Administration points out, the rule is based on the overall direction of the highway.

And then there are three-digit interstate highways. The numbers in a three-digit highway generally tell you a few things:
  • If the first digit is even, the highway usually connects to another interstate at both ends, meaning it’s a loop.
  • If the first digit is odd, the highway is typically a “spur” route.
  • The last two numbers usually tell you which interstate the route spurs off from. For example: I-210 in California branches off of I-10. Houston’s I-610 loop branches off of I-10, too.

How about this one:

Was in a readers digest around 20 years ago, and a great fact to keep in mind back then. Nowadays with GPS, the art of knowing the roads is just about dead :(
I'm an optimist; but only because life isn't going to give me any other good choices.

And I thought that everyone knew that.

How about this one:
The BQE does not follow the proper directional east-west designation. It should have an odd number. Read this years ago in a book by the NYC DOT commissioner on best routes to take to navigate NYC at different times of the day. Waze has replaced that now. 
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

A book telling you the traffic report? ROFL.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

+1. The two groups of rules are separate. Several 3 digit highways are circles, around a city, so they go all directions.

The new 5/18 rule. And we already know the routine from Citi; soon it'll slyly be turned into 5/24.

@KolHaolam: NEW YORK: BEWARE - NYS has begun suspending registrations of vehicles that pass thru toll booths without paying 5 times within 18 months.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

We live in our own worlds thinking everything is fine.... It's good to feel other people pain sometimes.

I spent a couple of weeks with a relative last year at Colombia. - everyday you see regular mothers and fathers  crying into their tehilims in the bikur chilim rooms... Eye opening experience.

It really is heartbreaking. Thats why I investigated into it, and if you want to know what happens you can check out super avi on instagram.
