New Jersey Can't Keep Mile Marker 66.6 From Thieves

New Jersey officials don't know if the thefts are being committed by religious zealots, people with a flair for the satanic, or college kids who think a '666' sign would look cool in their dorm room, but officials are having a hard time replacing mile marker signs that have the famous number. Joe Orlando, a spokesman for the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, said, "Given the symbolism of the number and the fact that it is obviously done in the middle of night, and in the middle of nowhere, I can safely say that I'm not eager to meet the rocket scientists doing it." It's probably college kids. Who didn't dabble in a little Satanism in college?

If by dabble in satanism...

A friend of mine in North Carolina has the same problem. He lives on Yellow Brick Rd.

Man, yellow brick road is way less colorful [google.ca] than I would have imagined.

While I was working in a restaurant we had one box with spare No 69 table numbers and one box with other table numbers.

Correct Sign?!?

Has anyone else noticed that the image used is actually a highway id sign, not a mile marker sign?

How to Fix it...

Why don't they just post Mile Marker: "665 + 1" ???
