I've always wondered if the times people give for distances were culturally set in the '50s and '60s when most of the good highways had been built but hadn't yet been filled with cars. Sure, Valencia is 40 minutes from Anaheim as I've been told...at 3 o'clock in the morning.
Of course, one time while staying in a Hollywood area motel I asked the desk clerk how long it would talk to walk to some restaurant. She literally said "about 20 minutes" and it was really almost an hour-long walk. That's the experience that reminded me of that comic I saw on TV as a child. |
