Well, it all depends on how you do your math.
Another interpretation is:
Given that I was going to be driving by Topeka
anyway, and I'm not going to tell my boss I'm on
vacation and I'll save a bunch of money by not
entering BA autox's or buying BA gas while away and
I'm planning on writing a book about motels between
here and Topeka and the restaurants that serve them
and ... and... it's going to cost me less than nothing
to go!!
Wow, why didn't I think of this before!
If this stands up to scrutiny I'll forward it to my
wife :-)
