Anecdote

Yesterday I had to scrape the ice off of my truck, warm it up and drive quite slow due to the "black ice" reported on the news. BTW-the term black ice is racist. How bout just "ice, ice, baby? Is "white ice" a desert? Who the hell decided it was black? It just doesn't make sense except to a dude like Jesse Helms. Anywhoo, I live in Seattle, Washington and upon my journey to drive on I-5, I looked around and saw frosty rooftops, a lightly falling snow and cars exhibiting exhausting pipes. I said to my shivering passenger, "I feel like I'm in Pennsylvania". She said,"yes it's true, although I've never been there before".
