Did you know
« on: January 14, 2007, 06:15:14 am »
It very cold outside and my car door is frozen shut.

And I allready seen a wreck yesterday, Dummies took the corner to fast out in front of my Apartment building and went into the ditch, took two pickups to pull them out. And the they allmost slid back into again when they tried to take off afterword.

it's nothing but solid ice out on the street where I live too at least 1/2 inch.

This is why they need to have an intellegence test attached to Driver's Licensing.  I've noticed that most people's IQ drops about fifty points just by getting behind the wheel.  Sad... :D

In that case, we need to make sure that everyone who has a license has an IQ of at least 120 (to compensate for the 50 point drop) so we don't have any morons (IQ below 70) on the road.

All that ice and bad weather finally hit up here in Michigan, I lost power and heat for about 8 hours last night.  Thankfully I didn't have to go out anywhere, the road outside my house looked like I could have skated on it.  There is a boat load of broken branches in my back yard, I think it will be July before I can get that all cleaned up.  :D

Actually, it was not so bad. Most of the ice was melted. But there were spots esp in the parking lot. :o

Well your lucky it's still solid ice where I live, Course the main streets are fairly well cleared off, but the parking lot at the store was not.At the apartment where I live the parking lot kinda slopes down and they don't clear it off, so it's been a adventure getting in and out got to be real carfull.
