The Ice Age Returns (for now)

Watch your footing out there - the sidewalks are nothing but ice. At least in the neighborhoods. But instead of condemning people for not shoveling the public sidewalks in front of their houses, I urge everyone to enjoy this early December icing. Because if we are all lucky enough to reproduce and then have offspring able and willing to do the same, we can tell our grandkids these great stories like:

"I remember back in aught-seven when we got four inches of snow December - early December! And you know there was ice all over the place - frozen water, I tells ya! It was all over the sidewalks and you could slip and slide on it... Boy, those were the days! Now, sonny, get in the canoe and row down to the market - I need you to trade this Anacostia 'gator meat for some bourbon!"
