I would rather have a lower posting total for today than have had vixdad get hit.

That album cover is harrowing, too. In its own way.

It was pouring down with rain many if the roads were flooded

I was about to ask you how your roads are.

I started to go out the office complex through the main entrance by as I was approaching the intersection I da2 flashing lights abd cars backing up, so I made a quick detour through another parking lot and went out the back way, went through a few side streets and drive under the expressway to pick up the eastbound service road

It is good you had more than one option.

When I got to the entry way to the LIE I saw it was bumper to bumper so stayed on side roads and service roads all the way home

Groan.

There were a couple of times I had to drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid huge , deep puddles but I made it home safe and sound

That is easier to do when the street isn't busy.

Once he got to Jamaica he realized the escalators and elevators were all out and he heard about subways flooding.

Reading about the subway floodings is why I was concerned about your roads.

Fortunately a cop was just a couple of cars behind Vixdad so there was no waiting around and  no nonsense about what might have happened or who was at fault

That is a big relief.

He’s feeling ok and the car is still drivable until he gets the insurance estimate and approval to send it to the body shop

Good.

Years ago while driving slowly in bumper to bumper traffic the guy behind the car to our right attempted to change lanes.

I'm feeling noir-ish. Perhaps "Gaslight" and "Hanover Square" this weekend?

Within minutes my entire body was hurting, and my neck was much worse than it had been.
