I got a kickass Craftsman creeper, and some other cool stuff. Now watching "Its a Wonderful Life", and enjoying some whiskey while everyone else is asleep. Ah......

Wow, that's not good for anyone trying to drive home after the holiday. Stay safe out there and don't crash.
I had the Escort start sliding on ice in that stuff on Tuesday going to work, was able to steer it back in line and slow down a bit. There was ice under a light coating of snow, gotta watch for that stuff, that's how I wrecked my red '05 'stang.

It was freaking horrible driving this morning. I was at a friends house and left about 5 am. Thankfully I was not drinking. I would have stayed there then. so maybe I should have drank, lol.
Was across the border in Indiana. I could not get on I-80 anywhere! All the ramps were shut down because semis could not get up them.
Finally I found a ramp that was open. Every road was sheer ice. I seen at least 30 spin outs/accidents. A normal 25 min ride, took me nearly 2 hours.
It was bad, and if I say it was bad, its bad. I usually like driving in this stuff to watch all the other idiots, but this was not fun.
The worst one I seen was a 99-04 Stang smacked up real good on 80, took out a light pole.
