Channeling Bruckheimer
Driving across the desolate plains of Ohio somewhere near Upper Sandusky, I flipped through the radio stations and landed on a news report talking about the ridiculously bad weather throughout much of the country on through some sick coincidence the busiest travel day of the year, when millions of people like myself were out driving or flying or otherwise leaving the safety of their homes. Tornadoes in Texas, snowstorms in Missouri and headed straight for my own location, massive storms throughout the southeast. The news report ended, and, hitting the seek button again, I found a station just starting up AC/DC's "Highway to Hell". I'll never refuse some AC/DC on a road trip, but as I looked back at the busy four-lane highway stretching out through the bleak grey curtain of rain ahead of me, I couldn't help but think, "This would make a perfect beginning to a disaster movie. Start the opening credits."
