Good morning! I've just announced availability for a book on Michigan
highways. The focus is primarily southeastern state and international
crossings. It builds off the state's collection at Pictures of Highway
Shields (http://hwy-shields.calrog.com/#mi), including her Interstate & US
Federal highways, and adds the following to it: county lists, waterway
crossings, glossary for road terminology, foreword and index. 10% of all
proceeds benefit the American Red Cross. If you or your friend are
interested in road enthusiasm, this book will make a wonderful, resourceful
gift.

Carl Rogers of CALROG.com Releases a Travel Guide on Michigan Highways
"Pictures of Highway Shields: Michigan!" invites and informs the reader of
Rogers' book on Michigan's highways. By showing pictures of highway markers
(or "highway shields"), readers can also get a pictorial representation of
what Michigan's diverse scenery looks like. This is an excellent tool for
those wishing to travel through the Great Lakes state."
------------------------------------
Grayson, KY (PRWeb) November 4, 2006 -- Carl Rogers announces the
publication of "Pictures of Highway Shields: Michigan!", in conjunction with
Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world's fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand
books, and Calrog.com, a cutting-edge repository of International highway
shields.
By showing the reader pictures of highway markers (i.e., highway shields)
for Michigan's freeways, expressways and streets, one's future travel-plans
to the Great Lakes state become more simplified and clear. The book focuses
largely on the Detroit metropolitan area, including the western and northern
suburbs. Also included are photographs of Port Huron, located in Saint Clair
County, and international crossings into Canada.
Rogers designed "Pictures of Highway Shields: Michigan!" because the state
is a gateway to diverse Americana and economic interconnectivity with
Canada. "Pictures of Highway Shields: Michigan!" is available for purchase
at http://www.lulu.com/content/490051 .
"Michigan is a hot-bed of economy, national past-time and tourism," states
Rogers. "Almost anyone who drives a vehicle knows the history of
metro-Detroit's automobile industry. The championed Detroit Tigers baseball
club and the Detroit Lions football team add an exciting flair to a state
that enjoys both rural and urban demographics. There really isn't a better
way to get tourists into the excitement and prestige of Michigan than by
providing a book that lets you know what the roads of southeastern state
have to offer. Thanks to Lulu Publishing, we now have a travel guide ready
for vacationers wishing to make a trip into the Great Lakes state."

I don't blame you a bit, Scott. Five simultaneous trolls with the
exact same häshénträsh in the posts make the normal banter with Aunt
Judy seem tolerable in comparison. Of course, that's like saying
Junior is the worst President since Slick Willie.
Damn, I used "Aunt Judy" and "tolerable" in the same sentence! And
after accusing AJ of slipping in another thread! And it's not even
beer-thirty yet! Must be about time to run to the holiday meal.
I just took a look at the allautos website. Its nothing more than our
newsgroup presented in a web based format. I found the "report post,"
link ot be amusing. Like (a) any of us used their service to post and
(b) they could do anything to us if someone did report a one of us.
