i would just like to state for the record that whoever designed
the new service areas on the mass pike [specifically the gas station part]
was a genius. i'm serious here. they've made it a bank of individual pumps
instead of a few parallel rows of several pumps each. the benefit being that
there's no more of that stuck waiting in line when there is a free pump up
ahead but you can't get to it because the pumps closer to you are both taken
and you can't squeeze between the cars. faboo.

they don't. and really, is that too much to ask for?
