It's never too soon to laugh

[Austin S. Camacho]

I was on track for an on-time arrival at Borders Express Saturday but an accident shut down the beltway – all lanes. Like a contestant on Who Wants to be a Millionaire I used one of my lifelines, a friend who worked map magic to guide me to an alternate route. I was grievously late, but it was the kind of situation I knew would make a funny story some day, so I just laughed it off.

After all, if you’re going to be able to look back on something and laugh about it, you may as well laugh about it now.
