All Things Come To Those Who Wait.. (Radiola Sr.)
#16

Yep! And add to that list those noisy neon curly-Q light bulbs.
#17

There is an overpass on my way to work. When I approach it, about a 200 yards before it any FM reception stops. It starts immediately upon clearing it.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
#18

We need to send Mulder and Sculley to investigate that overpass. 

While we are waiting for them to arrive, Mike- pull over next time you are under the overpass and put your ear to one of the overpass supports. If you hear "It's PEOPLE, soylent green is made out of PEOPLE," I recommend you act like nothing is wrong, return to your car, go home, and watch non-stop Jerry Springer episodes until you start to feel the urge to eat something tasty and green. 

If you hear words to the effect "You are under arrest," raise your arms from your side, slowly turn around, and do-exactly-what-the-nice-man-in-the blue-uniform-tells-you.
