I've been on the road so much this weekend that I've barely had time to sit down at the computer, and now I have about two minutes before I run out again.

While on the road, I managed to snap a photo of the cause of one of the usual long delays -- a car on fire:

Well, I guess it wasn't on fire by the time I got to it, but these days, they make a hell of a lot more fuss about such things than when I was a kid.

(I'd hate to think what might happen if someone dropped a bag of flour....)
