“I was on the Hollywood Freeway durin rush hour -- what a nightmare.  There was a flashin electronic road sign -- y’know for traffic control -- that read BACK UP.  I drove in reverse for ten minutes.  Then, uh, another flashing sign told me to GO FORWARD.  I did this for five minutes.  Then I was ordered to back up again.  Go forward again.  Back up.  Twenty-four hours later I was a half mile behind where it was I first got on the freeway.  I wasn’t gettin anywhere, so I said to myself: how bout Syria it’s nice there this time of year?  And, the rest is history.”
