I know us folk up here in the Pacific NW don’t get snow or ice very often. But really: How dumbass do you have to be to think slamming on the gas pedal in your big, tough SUV will somehow allow you to regain control? Wow.
At least, that’s what I read this afternoon regarding the “BIG ONE OF 2007!!!” storm we’re supposed to have. Seriously, we’re talking about one inch in the city. The northwest doesn’t get snow very often, so I can see how it could be portrayed as some epic event. I couldn’t help but giggle, however, when I read terms such as ‘the region will receive a full scale assault of bitter cold’ and ‘be prepared for a regional invasion.’ Full scale assault? Invasion? Sounds like somebody in the weather room is bored…
