LA Times headline saying a crash investigator crashed into an ambulance that crashed carrying a crash victim. Picture shows two of the crashed vehicles. For godsake, people, take public transit or ride a bike.

I can't tell you how much it delights me that you're working on a new original album. Greedy of me, I know.
