hahahahaha..... I would be terrified to drive in the snow.... I don't
mind slow and steady, but man I would be nervous as heck if that guy
passed me. Shoot he could wipe out right in front of you, oh boy look
out.... The only thing I have to laugh at is on the beach. Our extra
soft white sands keep the foreigners busy digging, hahahahaha. Oh honey
try turning the wheels and punching it, that will get us out,
hahahahaha.

Subject: DML: RE: Snow Morons
I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately these morons don't change
the further
north you go. You'd think in the land of ice and snow (Canada)
we'd have
better winter drivers -- NOOOOO. In fact, this is one of the
main reason
Jason and I are staying home -- we're not snow morons, but we
are hiding
from them.
Here's an example of what happened to me yesterday. I knew the
storm was
coming and it was going to be a bad one, so I left early in the
morning to
stock up on supplies in case we got snowed in completely.
Better safe than
sorry. I guess a lot of other people had the same idea, as I've
never seen
the grocery store so packed at 9:30am. I knew the storm was
expected in the
afternoon, but of course the weather guys were off by a few
hours. On the
way home, it was coming down pretty hard and visibility was
pretty much nil.
This little mustang behind me was getting pissed at how slow I
was going (25
mph with 4x4 on) and he's honking, flashing his lights, giving
me the
finger, etc.
Here's the kicker -- he decides to change lanes and pass me at
45mph. I
don't mind, I just keep put-puting along at 25. About two
intersections
later, I see the same mustang stuck in a snowbank. Moral of the
story: In
a winter blizzard - slow and steady wins the race, fast and
furious eats
snow for breakfast. What a moron!!!
