Who Left the Fridge Open?

[james_bond_007]

I lived in Dallas for about 5 years.

It's true...
a) Only people that showed up for work were transplanted Yankees
b) Grocery stores were wiped out of milk, bread, etc.
c) No one on the roads
(To their defense, the roads were often iced over, due to Gulf moisture, and they did not use salt...only sand. Rumor had it that the water table wasn't very far below the ground, and the salt was known to leach into it..again "Rumor has it"; however they were quite the speeders down there, and I suspect that had a lot to do with why no one was on the roads).

When the ice storms came, and I left work, it was almost as if someone had dunked my car in water, repeatedly, and let it freeze. The car was gently encased in ice.

As we could not get the doors open to get in the car to get the ice scraper, we used our badges to chip away at the ice until we could get a door open.
The next day, the Security dept was "torqued off" as they had about 100+ broken badges, claimed to be $25/ea to replace.
