proof of shrewness
the metrolink accident on friday was completely horrifying. i don't yet know if anyone from the firm was on the train that crashed, but two of the folks in my department were on the following train (they were at northridge at the time of the crash).
however, i do know someone who would have been on that train if he hadn't driven in on friday (just like i knew someone who worked at the world trade center who had been late to work on 9/11) -- and as bitchy as it sounds, i am already tired of his story and it's not even 8 am. it wasn't an actual near-death experience, so enough already.
