    Angry So . . . crap. (Warning: twisted metal content)

    This was not how I envisioned returning from a 6-week TDY yesterday:









    Short version (long version to come later): traffic came to a (literal) screeching halt, car behind me lost it, flipped, tagged my front corner & squarely nailed the rear of the Grand Marquis in front of me. No injuries (amazingly) & the damage to my front corner seems to be the extent of it (for me, anyways). The at-fault driver's insurance has already contacted me & will be paying for the damages. The adjuster should be taking a look at it on Monday, so I'll have more info (& a better idea of the damage) then.

    Twisted metal is awful but walking away from it is the most important.
    Glad you are OK.
