sunday evening dread of monday morning drive

My insights pale in comparison to those of this gifted eastside journalist, but here they are anyway:

• My car got rear-ended on 520, & there wasn't much I could do about it... I was in far left lane, & traffic was stop & go, so was I supposed to put car in "park" & walk out into middle of 520 & confront the driver?  Anyway, if you happen to know this guy, tell him I think he's a dick.
• 520 is horrible, but I90 is just goddamned scary.  I don't want to get stabbed &/or carjacked, or involved in a high-speed chase, & I definitely don't want to fall over the side.
• JO&B is located there - in a shopping mall - & does not have a Seattle office or formally permit telecommuting.  The next generation of global telecommunications is best directed while tethered to a docking station, near the safety of a land line.
