Fervidly singing along with Van Morrison’s “Into the Mystic” at a stoplight on the Belt, my foot slipped off the clutch and my car lurched ahead into the intersection, fortunately not far enough to arrest the momentum of the cross traffic with the side of my car. Clearly, I was not in control of myself. Maybe while I’m in heavy traffic I will listen to ‘Fresh Air’ on National Public Radio and save Van the man for the open road.
