I played hookie today to take care of some things and part way through the day, ducked out to pick up a cheap pair of speakers for my back-up computer.  On the way to Circuit City, I saw the line of cars in front of me was going a bit slow and I found out why.

Normally, I’m stuck behind a school bus when I run a 3PM errant but God, sensing my work avoidance, struck at me.  In front of me, was not only a school bus but (in the following order) a American Cancer Society, a school bus, and a postal truck pick-up van all making intermittent stops all moving slowly through the snow.  I imagine there’s a layer of hell dedicated to this sort of punishment.
