Yuck. I had to get a rental car while my van is in the shop. I don't think I'll be going anywhere tomorrow morning. :P

Just joshing ya, 'Nova. Take the rental out and spin donuts in parking lots in the wee hours on the ice....the emergency brake helps!

2. Thanks, I'll do that!

:D

I'm sure the rental company would enjoy charging my cc for the full cost of the car I'm sure to destroy.

3. mmm whipping shitties!

:woohoo:

[supernova]

4. What does that mean?

:shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

5. spinning donuts = whipping shitties

In Minnesota we do not call them donuts....

6. In Wyoming

they're either cookies or donuts. But fun no matter where you're from!

8. Indeed

I remember how my dad taught me how to drive in winter conditions...He took me out on the frozen lake and I whipped as many shitties as I could. Then learned how to gain control of the car in a skid.

[supernova]

13. Yikes!

Luckily, it's not supposed to be too bad, sticking mostly to higher things like bridges and power lines.

[lildreamer316]

14. One hopes.

Let's hope that holds true.*crossing fingers*

[ncrainbowgrrl]
