OK, so you guys in the North, used to a few inches of snow (- All right, this year a few feet of snow –
will call me a wuss because I’m talking about an inch of ice.
But down here in the land of yahoos, that inch will cause more accidents and damage than the six inches you guys deal with as a matter of course.
Yep, this year everyone in the states has probably had more snow than they like to shovel.
But here where a snow plow makes the news because it’s a rare animal – as in: there ain’t none, - snow and ice causes havoc for adults and happiness in kids.
We’ve already had our five inches of snow this month.
Now the weather-guessers are saying rain, then sleet and ice will grace our lawns and roads and bring happiness to new car dealers, car body-workers and hospitals in the area.
My personal bad news is that I might have to venture out in that stuff this time.
No watching on the TV the Bubba Andretti skill demonstration as to how best to hit the fire hydrants and other unlucky recipients of his car paint samples on their vehicle.
This time I might have to be present …live.
Aw damn, why haven’t I changed the appointment yet? And why did I ever get rid of those car snow chains? Oh yeah, they wouldn’t fit this car anyway.
