Who needs carpooling?

...
Don't you just hate traffic? I can hear James Taylor singing "Traffic Jam" in my head as I type. I have been really lucky in my job geography. 30 years ago my first job was at seven ten west Ben White and I lived at 45th and Airport. That's a pretty long way. But back then there were barely any cars so traffic wasn't an issue. Plus it was a beer joint-the traffic wasn't bad at 2:30 in the morning even on Saturday.

Now I don't work so far away from home and I'm grateful 'cause there sure is a bit more traffic. I've discovered books on CD. So I drive home while some sleuth is trying to piece together clues to solve the latest mystery.

I know we all think about alternative transportation. Heck, I hear a bus goes quite close to where I work. But nobody has ever claimed the bus is fun. I guess I could ride a bike-but I'm not sure biking on Koenig Lane at 5 pm would be very fun either.

I think the guy in this video has the right idea. I just need to get a job way up high in a place with lots of water to spare. Anyway-enjoy this fellow's "ride home". I love this video!
