Las Vegas, Nevada

Traffic is a Universal Evil

One constant appears to bind all people and places together in anger and despair -- that is city traffic.

Having lived in Seattle for more than 22 years, I have seen the traffic get continuously worse. When it takes 45 minutes to drive myself to work (which is only 15 miles away), I must confess, I experience the onslaught of road rage every now and then.

I experienced the same feeling of helplessness as it took almost an hour to go three miles by bus along Las Vegas Boulevard (The Strip). I estimate I still have a half hour left before reaching the Luxor.

(Traffic is God's practical joke to the world.)
