We see you every day--drivers of buses and cabs, deliverers of bottled water and mail, CHP officers and others who drive around the L.A. area for a living. You seem sooo calm as you stop and go in stop-and-go traffic. Obviously, you have something we mortals lack. Is it a solid exercise regimen? Inner peace? A nifty collection of cassette tapes?
