The west half of Interstate 35 through the Twin Cities. It is about 41 miles long and serves downtown Minneapolis and some western suburbs. However some parts of it are crappy and desperately need reconstructing. See Crosstown Commons. It needs help with interchanges with I-94 and I-494/MN 5 as well. In the future it may even need help with its interchange with I-694.

One of two interstate highways with the "76" designation (the other being in Ohio and Pennsylvania with about 3 miles of Jersey mixed in), this is an extremely boring nowhere freeway. Its sole purpose is connecting Denver to Chicago and Omaha (via Interstate 80).
It runs from Interstate 80 at Big Springs, Nebraska, through absolute nothingness for 180 miles, and then ends at Interstate 70 in Denver with NO WARNING. Without knowing it, you are now on Interstate 70, heading west towards the potentially dangerous Rocky Mountains.

"Well, kids, here's Interstate 76!"
"zzzzzzzzzzzzzz..."
"Only 186 miles to Denver!"
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

The interchange of I-94, I-494, and I-694 in Maple Grove, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis. The interchange marks the western ends of both I-494 and I-694. Often congested on eastbound I-94 in the mornings, sometimes too early to be imagining traffic jams like that.
I-94 East is jammed up from the Fish Lake Interchange to 95th Ave.
Wanna take US 10 instead?
You bet.

Somebody who can be asked how to get somewhere on the road and not even have to think about it before responding with an answer and can name other major cities on the route. Also have everyday thoughts influenced by driving and going places.
Guy: Hey Roadgeek, how do I get from Duluth, Minnesota, to Laredo, Texas?
Roadgeek: Take Interstate 35 south through Minneapolis/St. Paul, Des Moines, Kansas City, Wichita, Oklahoma City, Dallas/Ft. Worth, and San Antonio and you will get there.

300 miles of...farms, smelly farms, corn, even smellier farms, and...Des Moines...and Davenport too.
Features a 73-mile branch route in I-380. Most branch routes are relatively short.
Also has a 14-mile overlap with I-35 in Des Moines.

Possibly the worst freeway in the Twin Cities except maybe Crosstown 62. It certainly has the two most dangerous interchanges in the metro, filled with weaving and tightly spaced interchanges, at I-35E and also at a huge interchange with MN 51 and US 10. Also has a crappy interchange at I-35W and and a useless dual-signage route with I-94, which is its parent route anyway.
"The fastest way to Minneapolis from here is I-694 to I-35W."
"Let's take Highway 100 or 169 to I-394 instead, because I don't want to get killed."
"Agreed."

The Beatles are the best band EVER. For those who hate them and are obsessed with the new crap, the Beatles had 27, yes 27, number one hits. That's probably more than any of the guys you Beatle-haters (the worst word I can think of on the face of this planet) listen to will put up COMBINED in their careers. Beat it, Beatle-haters (it pains me to say it) and go listen to your wannabe crap music. The Beatles never get obnoxious or blow people's ears out with relentless screaming.
The Beatles take all crappy musicians out behind the woodshed and beat them with their instruments. All of their songs are good and never get obnoxious. I'd have a hard time picking good songs because there are so many good ones!
