Moments — over in the blink of an eye
At its very best it would have been a horrific accident resulting in catastrophic injury — and at its worst, well...
Man-made or not — the weather she is a changin'.
With little traffic on the road I was making good time, and as I came over a rise I lost control of the car — there was a real possibility I was going to spin into the oncoming lane and flip the car into the ditch. I did regain control of the car (as well as my composure) and continued on my way. My only explanation for what happened was I hit a patch of black ice that had formed because of the rain and near freezing temperatures.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
As I drove on (a little slower I might add) I thought of a conversation we had the night before about our plans for the year; as I reflected on the conversation I became just a little melancholy over the lack of imagination on my part. I had been reminded this is all so very fragile, so the least I could do is be a little more imaginative with what I do.

You are so right Phil Friedman... my heart aches for what happened; in 1975 a student walked into my high school and killed three people including himself (and wounded over a dozen). Sadly those kids will carry the experience for the rest of their lives... I can still hear the shots every time something like this hits the air waves.
