Cross reference coincidence with wanting

Just posted a very long piece on my main PJMixer blog called Ramblings of the wanting. It was regarding controlling my desires for things like new cars and cameras.   The evening after I completed the post I got a ride to my ultimate game in my friend's brand new Audi A5 (pow) and got to play a little with another friend's Nikon D600 (umpf).

Unfortunate coincidences

We hear about car crashes all the time when we're dialed in to traffic reports, and over our lifetimes we are all involved in at least one car accident (I've had three I believe). But sometimes we forget how dangerous driving can really be.

This week, I talked with a customer who I hadn't heard of for a few weeks. It turns out he was involved in a serious accident with his family on the 401 and is suffering from back and neck pain. Today, I learned that the family of a work colleague in Ottawa were involved in a serious car accident yesterday and his daughter is in the hospital. My thoughts are with them.


I once heard that the car, most times, our comfortable and loyal "friend", can turn into your worst enemy in a blink of eye when things go wrong. Please drive safely, for yourself and fellow travelers on the road.
