As fearsome as Y2K! More powerful than Avian Flu! Able to frighten people into wrapping plastic sheeting and duct tape around their entire families! It’s…it’s…Carmageddon!
Yes, this weekend a terrifying event of epic proportions has Los Angeles in its grip! Part of a freeway will be closed for a little while! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
Please, give to those poor Angelenos who are enduring inhuman suffering this weekend, having to spend time with their families or eat at…local restaurants! Even braving the heartless and brutal roads that may have…traffic on them!!!
Contribute generously your songs about cars, driving and cities to this weekend’s music thread and maybe…just maybe…you may help some poor soul survive this cruel torture of humanity called “infrastructure repair”!!!

Making money you can’t spend ain’t what being dead’s about
You gave me all but one good reason not to do all the things you did
Now Cadillacs are fiberglass, if you were me you’d call it quits”
I think Carl is absolutely correct.

This song became a theme song for one lysergic filled road trip from Ohio to Cape Cod, that a buddy and I took, long, long ago. It was the days of AM radio and it was in the Top Ten at the time.
