Carmageddon? Really?

Best wishes to those who try to journey the 405 this weekend in sunny California. Check out the beginning of my book, "Single 101: 101 Reasons to Celebrate Being Single" and Reason # 101, Spontaneity.


Several years ago, when I thought I might as well take a nap, stuck in traffic on the Ventura Highway, I thought it would be interesting to get out of my car and visit other drivers sharing the jam. You never know who you might meet. Aspiring actors may stumble over a casting director or movie producer. Maybe the 405 is a great place to find work. Could it actually help economic woes in the city of angels?

There are alternate routes set up, but the popular recommendations are to avoid the area and just stay home. However, the San Jose Mercury News reports that "Carmageddon" may be blown way out of proportion. http://www.mercurynews.com/california/ci_18474513

As the article states on MercuryNews.com, it could be just another Y2K attempt by alarmists who enjoy spreading stress. That's what L.A. needs- more stress!

So, if you must travel and the 405 is still the shortest distance from point A to B, read my book and check out the first story. If you're held up for a while, download it into your Kindle, right there on the 405. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Single-101-Reasons-Celebrate-ebook/dp/B003S3S06M

Happy Trails!
