Earlier today, I learned that my younger brother was in a car accident. He apparently could not sleep last night, and he felt drowsy behind the wheel. He struck a utility pole in half with wires being everywhere. He survived, but he did get banged up somewhat (I should see him later this week). Since he was at fault, the insurance rate will go up. Last year, my mother was in a wreck (totaled the used minivan that was recently [at the time] purchased], but did not hit a pole. Seems like we don't get a lot of good news within the family.
