    Okay, I give up: why is there no “69”?

    • Fear of prurience?
    • Sleeps with the fishes?
    • Aversion to ambigrams?

    Ambigram… great word…sort like an palindrome but upside down.

    It is interesting to figure out the numbering system on the street. It appears that to keep house numbers parallel to the other side of the street certain numbers disappear when there are more single family houses on one side of the street.

    i am happy to no longer live at 69 Rosevear. I always gave my address as 69-don’t laugh, Rosevear”some people can be so childish!!! It’s only a number. What’s that saying?”Sometimes a snake is just a snake!” and you know what I think of snakes
