The Owego (that's Owego, not Oswego) exits are number 65 and 64, for you number-oriented people.

[quote CowbellGuy]What's the matter with you people?! KRISPY-KREME FOR GOD'S SAKE![/quote]You mean in Clark's Summit?  (Which also features a Waffle House now by the way.  :-D )

There are also places to stop and eat just about every exit in NJ, there's a travel plaza in Bartonsville, PA (a bit west of Stroudsburg), and at least a few places between Scranton and Binghamton.

[quote JasonN95]Our preferred route coming from NYC-ish area (we live about an hour north of the city) is to take 17 to Owego (the second Owego exit, there's actually a supplemental sign telling you it is for Ithaca), then follow 96/96B into Ithaca.  If you're comfortable using passing zones to get around cars on small roads, this is an attractive option in my opinion.[/quote]I find it is much easier to pass people on 79 than on 96/96B, mainly due to the lower traffic volume and much less frequent low-speed zones.  But, as with many things related to driving, YMMV. :)

As it happens, Krispy-Kreme is a fairly significant part of exactly what's the matter with me.  :-D

I can vouch for Age on what he says.  Although I do understand the athletic department's position, I hope to one day successfully put in another request for Age.  I have been willing to vouch for him, but still to no avail.  Again, I understand their position, but I do have confidence that he would handle himself professionally going forward, and hope athletics changes its mind when the issue is revisited again.

True, I'd be inclined to do exactly that once I'm aware of his credentials as a journalist or photo-journalist.

Without knowing the details of their history, it sounds like the Ath Dep't is being a mite too protective of their turf.

Given that they allow a lot of poor behavior by fans to go on there, why are they so uptight about one journalist's past in his very different role as a fan?

I can't believe you don't shut up.

I guess I also don't quite understand this unyielding need to have a plethora of satisfactory dining options on a 3 1/2 hour drive.

You just never know when you're going to be jonesing for a cheap, mediocre semi-meal, that's all.  If you suddenly get a hankering, you don't want to find out you're still another hour's drive from the next way station on the grease train.

Or something like that.

Ha!!  See, now you're going to get me in trouble by making me laugh out loud.

[quote Rich S]You disagree with my statement?[/quote]
I'll take a crack at this.

I see it purely as sour grapes: you wish Clarkson had a fan base as dedicated (oh, sorry: as poorly behaved) as ours.

Sorry Rich, but the right answer to Clarkson's inferior fan support is not to bring Cornell down to its level.

Cheers,

exactly what 'poor behavior' goes on at lynah that doesn't go on at other college rinks?  And if your going to bring up the newspapers then I'd like to point out, as have many before me, that it happens once before the puck is dropped and in no way affects the game.
