    "Road Work Next 15 Years" reminds me dino of when I got drafted and rode a Greyhound stuffed with draftees from Dothan to Montgomery in Alabama on Highway 231 during 1969.
    Heard one kid get no arguments from absolutely no one when he proclaimed, "231, I grew up watching 231 being turned into a four-lane."
    At the start of our losing the Vietnam War two-years of enslavement, we were all ushered into the bus by a Dothan Draft Board lady who we knew as Mrs. Kennedy.
    "Mrs. Kennedy," nervously intoned one obviously frightened young man, "are they still taking Marines?"
    "Don't worry," Mrs. Kennedy did thus respond, "they haven't taken any Marines for a whole month."
    When we got to the army base, a lieutenant greeted us with, "This is the end of the month when we take Marines."
    Let that sink in as you laugh.
    It wasn't the worried kid who was picked. It was me, myself and I who among only 5 dudes who was destined to become "the FEW, the proud and the brave."
    Back then getting slapped and punched in the guts on Parris Island was a normal thing. Learned that the Marines desperately needed dudes who could be admin and supply clerks. They were getting all the suicidal volunteers they wanted "to play cowboys and Indians in the jungle." Such was my opinion about how that war was stupidly fought. World War Two and Korea was about taking and holding territory~~not hopping in and out of choppers all over the place.
    I was surprised to find that the morale at Cherry Point, N.C. was quite low. Never got out of the Carolinas myself.
    I would return to "my scuzzy civilian ways" after making corporal "under meritorious conditions." Those conditions had nothing to do with combat.
    I was a supply clerk.
    Oh, yeah, I got out two months early with what was called "a school cut." Took my revenge by going to college with the GI Bill.

    Cultural signs x symptomatic signs = physical signs

    We could also say physical signs are symptomatic of cultural signs.
