My father can drive down I79 for 10 miles at 55 miles an hour in 85 mile an hour winds and zero visibility with a flat tire while trying to play it off to my grandmother that it's just "ice on the tires". While I realize my father used to be an amateur race car driver, I still can't believe he didn't kill us.
It's time to stop the insanity. Just because you buy veggie chips and low fat ice cream doesn't mean you should eat them for dinner, and JUST them for dinner, and pay for it the entire evening, and eventually lose your dinner.
After this past snow storm, I am so glad I kept my car for another winter because my 10 year old Buick can beat out brand sparkling new ones in the snow. I blew past other idiots stuck at intersections because I NEEDED to go to that benefit with the Chinese auction! Alas, I didn't make it to the Kohl's power hour.
Playing Wii Sports will make you realize you're too old to start a boxing career.
There are still some really great people in this world, like my neighbor who went around to all our houses and snowblowed after the plow trapped us all in our driveways.

So, when/where was this that Dad tried to off you and Grandma? Was he trying to score that inheritance?
I can totally see Dad yelling at Grandma in his Dad voice. "Oh it's just some damn ice!" (meanwhile the tire is going thwup-thwup-thwup and sparks are flying)
WHere was I79 and when was Saturday night, the worst night of the snowstorm of course. We were leaving a benefit.
