My car broke down on Monday with the exact same problem that I thought had been fixed a year ago. Turns out the previous mechanic didn’t check something.
But all was not lost- when things like this happen I like to think of one of my favorite lines from Candide by Voltaire that says, “if you had not lost your sheep in the land of El Dorado, you would not be sitting here eating candied citron and pistachios.”

There was a shooting across the street from my house tonight. Fortunately, I was in another town and my neighbors are all OK. Violence never wins in the end.
