    However, that is not what you wrote. You wrote "490 miles away from home," which is not saying "roundtrip." If we said that our job was 100 miles away from home, most people would assume that we travel 100 miles to get to work, and the roundtrip would be 200 miles. Let's ask George Dunce's Trusted Source and Only Friend:

    NG: Can "away" mean roundtrip?
    GDTS&OF: No, "away" does not mean a roundtrip. In fact, it means the exact opposite: it refers only to the one-way journey outbound, moving from a starting point to a distant location.

    Easy enough to comprehend unless you are a Donkey. As Michael Pendragon has written many times: "Words matter."

    For the weather, yes... if you were at a football game.

    You don't pay your last respects in rainbow-neon sneakers and flannel.

    The funeral was in Savannah Georgia, 494 miles [round trip] from home, and I wasn't expecting I'd make it until the last minute.

    Mileage corrected ^^^

    Columbus is 240 miles from Savannah.

    Exactly 494 miles round trip.

    I was short only four miles.

    Again, a round trip is about 490 miles.

    That should be easy enough to comprehend.

    However, that is not what you wrote. You wrote "490 miles away from home," which is not saying "roundtrip." If we said that our job was 100 miles away from home, most people would assume that we travel 100 miles to get to work, and the roundtrip would be 200 miles. Let's ask George Dunce's Trusted Source and Only Friend:

    NG: Can "away" mean roundtrip?
    GDTS&OF: No, "away" does not mean a roundtrip. In fact, it means the exact opposite: it refers only to the one-way journey outbound, moving from a starting point to a distant location.

    Easy enough to comprehend unless you are a Donkey. As Michael Pendragon has written many times: "Words matter."

    That is one dumbass Donkey!

    The man standing next to you

    That's Pastor Adrien, dressed as a typical pastor.

    The weather was freezing that December afternoon, anc I was dressed
    appropriately for the weather.

    For the weather, yes... if you were at a football game.

    You don't pay your last respects in rainbow-neon sneakers and flannel.



    The funeral was in Savannah Georgia, a 494 mile round-trip from home, and back , and I wasn't expecting I'd make it until the last minute.



    Columbus is 240 miles from Savannah.



    Again, I was referring to a round trip from Columbus Georgia to Savannah Georgia and back again.

    Glad to clear up your confusion.

    Again, a round trip is about 490 miles.

    That should be easy enough to comprehend.

    However, that is not what you wrote. You wrote "490 miles away
    from home," which is not saying "roundtrip." If we said that our
    job was 100 miles away from home, most people would assume that we
    travel 100 miles to get to work, and the roundtrip would be 200
    miles. Let's ask George Dunce's Trusted Source and Only Friend:

    NG: Can "away" mean roundtrip?
    GDTS&OF: No, "away" does not mean a roundtrip. In fact, it means
    the exact opposite: it refers only to the one-way journey outbound,
    moving from a starting point to a distant location.

    Easy enough to comprehend unless you are a Donkey. As Michael
    Pendragon has written many times: "Words matter."


    "Diarrhea splatters."

    "Donkey natters."
