So, we want the roads to have the wrong amount of salt on them?
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
moocho grande, not just that little dribble here and there, or the 'ol not at all.
Who wants a road with high blood pressure ,,,,, 🤔
I believe the solution is that if you cause an accident during rush hour, you spend the weekend in jail.

Then your vehicle will only last 4 years before it is rusted through...
rusted thru after 10 years or glassware etched or cracked and all leading metal surfaces laid bare by the sand and rocks in a couple years in states like montana that don't use salt? take your pick. bondo a fender after 10 years or replace windshields yearly and repaint every 3 years.
I just salt my tires. 😋
Does that make them taste better?
There is always the old, "Go South young man."
South ya say??? I'll have ya know I'm in the south now, and not only south but west too, southwest. Why if I was any more south I'd be in Wyoming for crying out loud.
Whenever I used to travel a lot for a living, people would ask me where I'm from originally Knowing that I was living (and still do) live in Texas, but I don't have a definitive "Texas accent" according to them... I would answer that over the years I had lived in multiple Western and Sothern states along with several years in Germany, but was originally from "The South" "Southern Cal" that is! They would usually just look kinda dumb-founded and say OK...
I carried my mid-west, Missouri, accent for a long time. People would always ask where I was from, not so much now days. If we start talking about how many quatters I have, or if the warsh is done, ect. then they ask again.
Send me an addy, I will get you a road atlas Amigo.
or if the warsh is done , I use the term warsh all the time and get lots of grief from family and friends for it 😉
guess I picked it up from the dozen or so years i spent living in KS, a little in Missouri and Neb.
Never considered that I even had an accent until I lived for a short time in SW Virginia. I stopped at a small gunshop just outside of Galax. Talking to the owner with a few questions, he just stood there without any answers. Then asked me where I was from. Northern lower Michigan, I replied. Ahhhh! He said with a funny smile.
It was those "by golly" endings to my sentences that gave me away! 😁
Never been to a friendlier place in my life!
Amigo? I don't think he's quite that far South, HD!
Many places had a good answer to slick roads--fly ash. Then the dumb bunny enviro-terrorists made the source extinct.
The solution to icy roads is so simple. I cannot understand why no one has mentioned it. I guess the solution is to obvious.
Sit in front of the fire place until the ice has melted. I can't believe I had to tell you this.😂🤣😁
Beer, vodka or whiskey helps make this fire place time a very positive experience!!
Since my retirement, I've considered the idea of hibernating through those long winter months but unfortunately those dang medical appointments keep screwing up those plans!
I have had success bulking up my body fat reserves very well without even having to prep up long lasting food supplies or hanging hams from the man-cave ceiling. 😁
Grandpa was a saw miller in Central Virginia and never worried about the ice on the roads. You see he had no car. Was picked up by sawmill owner. He stayed warm next to the pot bellied stove and spit his tobacco juice in the spit toon next to it. Once in a hundred times he would miss and the juice would hit that red hot stove. Geeze what a smell. If he needed to go to the store, he hooked up Maggie to the wagon and off he would go after he warmed up and had his chaw of tobacco and the ice melted.--------------------------Ray
Well no, but I am and he could be.
