A while back I/we had a visit from the one known on this board as belligerentyouth... once ya got to know his humor there was not much belligerence remaining... ...On a bus ride across town he gave up a bit of a chuckle (out of nowhere) and, after asking "what's so funny", he pointed out the name of a street here called "Damen" and reminded me that this meant "women" in German (collective/plural I believe). Any other (potentially humorous) odd names for a street? not that women are odd or even potentially humorous, but.

Well, "Broadway" could be inspired by the ladies! (running for cover, running very quickly, I might add!)

During my summer in Santa Fe, NM, in 1964, I lived on a street called Camino Sin Nombre (street without a name)

And were you riding a horse with no name? Through a desert?

In Kalamazoo/Portage Romence Road intersects with Lovers Lane. You can get to Climax by either route, if you know the way.

Absolutely, Juan. Every time I drive up I95 through Philadelphia I feel like taking the Broad Street exit so we can go see the broads.
