heroI will not lie. I am not thinking, Oh yay, now I get to be a hero.Nope.I’m thinking, You have got to be kidding me! Just a few more seconds and Iwoulda been outa here.I may or may not use a few other choice words.

cartoonsAnd I ain’t proud of this, but halfway down I remember that I really, really,really don’t like riding in cars.I’m sort of dog paddling the air, thinking I can slow things down—maybeeven reverse direction—like Wile E. Coyote in those old cartoons.Cartoons are ridiculous for a reason.
