Yesterday around 10:30AM a truck owned by the band Imperial Stars blocked all three southbound lanes of freeway 101 near Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. The stunt, three months in the making, was originally planned for Monday but moved becasue of the Columbus Day holiday.

The stunt was hatched to promote the band’s new single, Traffic Jam 101, which the band performed live atop the truck while traffic piled up for miles.

As many as thirty people in other vehicles were part of the stunt. Imperial Stars IT Manager Tyler Fairbanks said, “Most people were in shock, but then we started getting people yelling at us.”

Well, yes, Tyler, people do tend to yell when idiots block traffic on a highway. People don’t take kindly to being stuck in a traffic jam. Especially when it’s for some stupid publicity stunt.

I watched my best friend’s mind go quietly dim in her mid-60s and my own stay sharp into my 70s — and the difference between us was not genetics or luck but the fact that she retired from everything the day she retired from work, and I never fully understood until then that the mind takes its instructions from the life and not the other way around

Psychology says people who cannot tolerate silence, solitude, or an unoccupied evening aren’t extroverts — they’re people for whom stillness has become dangerous, because stillness is the condition under which the things they have been outrunning are most likely to catch up
