Ice

We have ice.  We have ice upon ice upon ice.  I saw 11 cars in the ditch in a 10 mile stretch this morning.  I got home without incident, and I'm not going anywhere tonight or tomorrow.  I'm cozy and safe at home, and I'll not be leaving until Monday morning.

With all of that out of the way, on to the subject of ice.

Ice is good because:
It keeps your drink cold.
It is necessary for an ice cream maker.
You can skate on it.
It keeps items in your cooler cold.


Ice is BAD because:
It makes you crash in a ball of fire in the ditch.
You look stupid walking across the street on it.
Your car has to stay 400° to keep the windshield clear.
I can see dollars flying by as the propane burns.
Tree limbs fall all over the place.
Broken bones abound.

All in all, I can live with it, if I have plenty of time to get where I'm going, or better yet, if I can stay home.  For the next 36 hours, I'm staying home.

Peace out, ice queens!

If only we don't have a power failure, I can stand being shut in.
