Ice Storm!

The world's longest game of "Red Light/
Green Light" outside: frozen in "stop"
position. Ice has stalled everything in its
tracks. Sidewalks are a skater's dream:
even if one doesn't know how, they will
learn or fall, trying. And forget the roads:
cars going everywhichaway but straight.
Drivers think they know how to drive on
ice: they forget ice drives them, unless
one has a Zamboni. It's slick as a whistle
out there: the weather ain't fit for man or
beast. Best to stay in on days like this ...
