Today I was stuck in some of the worst traffic I've seen in a while. I was whining to myself. "I might not make it up to Palo Alto in time to have lunch with two friends. I have a meeting at 1:30. What an inconvenient time for a meeting. How annoying that I'm stuck in traffic."

Joe told me over the cellphone that the Web traffic reports showed an accident involving two? semis, one of which had FLIPPED OVER THE MEDIAN. And I drove by a chunk of what used to be a semi tractor-trailer cab. A chunk. Bigger than a motorcycle, smaller than my car.

Boy did my attitude get better. My problems are small.
