The Snows Of Disbelief The Fiction Of Our Times

Virgos have a nervous attention to detail. They made the cover of the Car Carma book. They'd be slamming their brakes on to avoid hitting a squirrel, but cause a 10 car pile-up.




traffic pile This is a strange one to explain. We don't have anything that resembles sleds around here. We have cheered for folks going down their big hills using their dish pans, trash can lids, old road signs, and parts of a still. The problem is a lot of these competitors don't realize you can't sled unless there is snow. It doesn't work on dry blacktop. That's ok, EMS is on call every other day, they get there eventually.











The temperature dropped and light flurries began. I went to the corner gas station for a cup of hot coffee. On my way into the store I spied a young college kid sitting Indian style on the cold pavement by the newsstands just outside the doors. He politely asked for any loose change I could spare. I gave him what I had--not much at all. Inside sổ tay đẹp giá rẻ was pouring my coffee into the cup when I overheard one of the employees say to the other, "There's some kid outside. I'm going to tell him to move on." I felt badly about their lack of sensitivity, especially in this cold weather.

One evening, I set up the Ouija board. It did not come with any instructions. There was simply a board and a little piece with a viewing window called a planchette. According to the picture, each person is supposed to lightly place their fingers on this planchette and allow it to move where it will across a board that has all 26 letters, the numbers 0-9, the words yes and no, and the word good-bye. I had a pad of paper nearby and a pen. As lightly as I could, I placed my fingers on the planchette. I could indeed feel a force moving the planchette. At times, the planchette shot all over the board; however, I never could get any of the letters to form words. I was simply getting nonsense words instead.

They're risk-takers, but they're experienced risk takers, and know that stunt driving should be left to the professionals. This is a talkative group, and they should consider putting their cell phone down and just driving.

Being the early-bird that I am, I was up at 7:30 a.m. I took a peek out of the black-out drapes to see it had stopped snowing. However, there was about a foot of snow on the ground and the roads weren't plowed yet. I had no idea what awaited us. I grabbed a book for reading and Heather's cell phone to make calls--I wanted to let the girls sleep a couple more hours. I would definitely need my morning time today--my "alone" time, as I affectionately refer to it. There was still half a trip to make.
