What street did you grow up on? More than likely, it had a pretty standard name like Maple or Pine. Maybe the streets in your neighborhood are even numbered for a little extra monotony. But that's not the case everywhere.

Along the streets of some American towns, you might notice some
pretty funny street names or even a great
combination of street names at the corner. Occasionally, street signs are just funny accidentally as in the case of Miracle Lane (
pictured above) in
Fort Myers, Fla., which is regrettably a "Dead End."
While we hope that Miracle Lane still has some magic left despite its dead end, it's bound to give a passerby a good chuckle.
We've found plenty other fun and funny street signs around the country so click on for more laughs.

With fifty states spread from coast to coast and beyond, America offers some of the most diverse and unique cuisine in the world. But there's not just one thing that can be referred to as "American food" -- there's a whole array of cuisines across the country that make up our cuisine. And depending upon what part of the country you're in, that food may change.
For instance, if you visit Philadelphia, the food is cheesesteak. But if you go to the other side of the country and drop in on San Diego, you want fish tacos. In Boston, it's a bowl of clam chowder at a historic restaurant. Barbecue and pizza are also both very American but they can change depending on where you are: barbecue comes in different styles across the south and pizza is at the center of a debate involving Chicago and New York City -- who has the best?
We've scoured the country for the best in regional foods and we're happy to offer some good advice on where you can taste these unique eats. Click on to find out more.
