...and when you get to the Slauson cutoff, get out and cut off
your slauson.
(Inside joke for fans of Johnny Carson.)
I always heard it as the Schlossen Cutoff!
Johnny pronounced it correctly - slaw' sun. I knew it that way from
the midwest, before I moved to L.A. it became part of the drive
between my grilf's house and my place.
