2002 was a bad year for me as a driver.
(1) In early March I crashed into a man at the intersection because I was studying a map while driving.
(2) The very next week I bumped into another man because I failed to realize the light had turned red. He stopped his car to see if his baby was ok.
(3) The week after that I knocked a woman's driver-side mirror out when I was backing out of a parking space.
(4) A few months later I totalled my car on a busy L.A. freeway, fishtailing into three lanes and finally ended up facing oncoming traffic as my car slammed into the center divide.
(5) And last but not least I dented another guy's car a few months later as I pulled into my church's parking lot. He told me it was his wedding day that day.
The amazing thing about all of this is that each person whose car I damaged decided not to make me pay. I can't explain it, but my insurance record remained as pristine as a mountain lake that year...as pure as the fresh driven snow.
I feel like I owe the universe.

Wow, it's pretty amazing even that no one was hurt, but to be free of liability....well, that is an absolute coup. Awesome!
you don't owe the universe, b/c i think it sent me all your bills. in other words, my bad karma balances out your good karma.
but good lord... someone who could match my crashes-per-year rate. didn't think it was humanly possible!!
Ha! You did have an inordinate amount of accidents Kony! I'll have to think of some way to pay you back...
