Delaying tactics: A highway sign sends me on a contemplative journey
I know they say “Never surrender,” but sometimes you just want to stop swimming and let the tide take you away.

Begins May 7th.” A traffic expert would probably say 45 minutes meandering on surface roads is demonstrably worse than 30 minutes sitting motionless on a highway, but some of us want to be masters of our own destiny. Like great white sharks, we must keep moving.
