In a rural valley outside the little town we just moved away from, the homeowners named their own roads, one HUGE ranch sported the names, Asshole Lane, and Shopaholic Bitch Lane. Which doesn't leave a lot to the imagination about who lived in the giant gaudy McMansion, does it?Elizabeth Bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150221675618198674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176805307442675187.post-54213379928552106262009-07-24T15:45:25.208-05:002009-07-24T15:45:25.208-05:00ok just read the response from Pambury...I still w...ok just read the response from Pambury...I still wouldn't jump at living there...not everyone knows the whole plats explanation unfortunately...Brown English Muffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881909686870701691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176805307442675187.post-43528883204643912922009-07-24T15:43:41.529-05:002009-07-24T15:43:41.529-05:00omg....I have to google it myself and see if there...omg....I have to google it myself and see if there's any history to the name.Brown English Muffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881909686870701691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176805307442675187.post-89029826109052241332009-07-24T13:24:18.434-05:002009-07-24T13:24:18.434-05:00You know, I could believe this in LA maybe, but no...You know, I could believe this in LA maybe, but not so much in Oklahoma. = )Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581178162502696838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176805307442675187.post-51158206601466449802009-07-24T09:26:53.428-05:002009-07-24T09:26:53.428-05:00BTW, next time you are down, I'll take you out...BTW, next time you are down, I'll take you out that way.

Streets were assigned letters on the grid, and then renamed later. So I assume Triple X Road was the third time through the alphabet and never re-named through the years. And probably wayyyyyy before anything with an "X" meant pornography!! I could be wrong, but believe that is how it came about. Makes sense anyway. <br /><br />Also out that way is "Indian Meridian Road" which is the dividing point in Oklahoma between East and West as far as land reference points. It is the old legal secretary in me coming out now.<br /><br />Same thing for Kay County, Oklahoma. When the counties were being mapped, they were assigned letters. Guess which county was assigned the letter "K"?
