car that had it's wheels frozen to the garage floor?

I have pushed the front end of a "Deuce and one Half" Army truck around a Baumholder corner in the dead of winter. I swore after serving in that mess never to live where it's cold.

My first criteria when I retired was to move where it was always warm.

And there sat Sam, looking cool and calm,
In the heart of the furnace roar;
And he wore a smile you could see a mile,
And he said: "Please close that door.
It's fine in here, but I greatly fear
You'll let in the cold and storm --
Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee,
It's the first time I've been warm."

Try this one. The good news is, it's probably a "total."


This winter continues to take a toll. Tribalwar member "dweeb" (no comments necessary, his name speaks for itself) has had his Honda involuntarily transformed into a quiescently frozen confection. Apparently, a water main burst in dweeb's Columbus, Ohio neighborhood, sending many gallons of water flooding into his grapeity purple econobox.
