Southern ingenuity

This morning I scraped the ice off my windshield with a Wal-Mart gift card.

Knowing there are people like you there makes moving to the south not quite as scary.

That's about the only reasonable use for them... well, it's better than using it to buy sweat-shop created productios, anyway.

I could practically hear the General Lee blaring its "Dixie" horn in the background as I read this.

"This morning I scraped the cute frost patterns off my windshield with a Wal-Mart gift card."

I fixed that for you!

And when the gift card and your windshield tried to unionize, you showed them who was boss, right?

I love that in GA you are scraping ice off your windshield and here in IL, I'm contemplating wearing my spring jacket in January.

You had ice on your windshield?

[Also, missed you lots at the party over the weekend].

Hee! I have a plastic spatula I keep in the glove box for those mornings. Haven't had any yet here in my part of Orlando

Um, you could probably use that gift card to buy an ice scraper. Just sayin'.

Oh, and ice? WTF? Unless you've shifted altitude or latitude, we haven't seen temps below about 40° F for a while.

They are just about right, aren't they.

Beautiful Garbage.

Because Bob wanted to get what he paid for with that cd....

I did nearly the same -- used up Starbucks gift card = light frost scraper.

Having originated in WI, I can't bring myself to use a full blown scraper when it is only a thin layer of frost.
