Carmageddon has everyone fuming

LA's "Carmageddon" - shutting down one of the major highways for roadwork - has everyone in a tizzy.  Everyone.

Funny since I don't live there.
It may be a while before the locals can appreciate the humor

Back in my Navy days, when I was stationed in San Diego (4 1/2 years), I spent dozens of weekends in LA and became VERY familiar with the roads. It was pre-Costco and pre-Apple Store... but there were other destinations that were just as "vital".

I remember how the Big Dig made Boston commuters crazy ("it's taking f*cking forever") and how the rest of the country - including LA - laughed.

Maybe it's schadenfreude, but I laughed so hard at the subtitles that I was in tears... :-)
