Snow!

Ah, our first snow I will be taking a lunchtime excursion to the empty parking lot across the street, me thinks.

I just was out, man that was a blast. I got the entire car to spin in place like a top (mind you, not a regular donut where the rear is whipping around. The car never moved from where it was!)

no no I do have winter tires I was just having a bit of fun with them
Oh yes, I know about yesterday's commute ... I went 2 miles in 45 minutes, sat at one light for something like 12 cycles. Not only do the people around here not know how to drive in the snow, but someone let all the jerks out yesterday as well, not letting people in, pulling unsafe maneuvers, cutting people off. I left work at 4:45, got home at 7:15. It's a 20 minute commute
