Yeah, really. :p

Well, maybe a little bit but still...

High Five for thoroughly explaining yourself :hi5

:hi5 to myself :p

I see you're playing the game right now. :aki

[After_Image]

BTW, how is the puppy?


We gave her away three days ago. :crying

[riki]

Aww... I hope she's happy wherever she is. :comfort

[Arrogance]

:hi5 to myself :p

I see you're playing the game right now. :aki
I see that you were not playing the game then :p.

[riki]

Well duh. The game hasn't arrived yet. :p

It will probably be here tomorrow.

[Arrogance]

Friday has come and gone and I have yet to see that you have gotten and are playing the game :comfort.

[riki]

Wait until this evening and then maybe you'll see. :p

[Arrogance]

Wait until this evening and then maybe you'll see. :p
We hope otherwise I'm gonna first prestige before you even have played the game :s.

[riki]

What level are you now?

[Arrogance]

What level are you now?
45 and there are only 50 lvls in the game with 15 prestiges :amuse.

[riki]

Wow, you're almost leveling up. :sweat

You'll probably be at level 50 by the time the game arrives today. >.>

[Arrogance]

Wow, you're almost leveling up. :sweat

You'll probably be at level 50 by the time the game arrives today. >.>
Thats what I'm hoping for, although it is much harder to lvl up in the last 5 lvls. Takes a lot more XP. You should change the thread title to "...getting ready for Black Ops" :p

[riki]

True, but my brother will be playing it not me. :p

[Arrogance]

True, but my brother will be playing it not me. :p
Why not :oh.............you should give it a shot, at least do story mode :oh........

Hahaha. :notrust

I just don't really care much about it. I prefer helping my brother spot the enemies not the actual shooting.

PS ND actually won! :faint

[Arrogance]

Hahaha. :notrust

I just don't really care much about it. I prefer helping my brother spot the enemies not the actual shooting.

If you can spot the enemies with your own eyes then you can also shoot them with your own gun :p.

They did?!?!?! I haven't been watching them, I just can't stand it these day, lol.

[riki]

Yeah, they did. They killed Utah 28-3 and they were actually pretty good though I think Utah was still in shock that they were beaten by TCU.

Now they're probably stunned because ND beat them.

[igotthegoods]

Speaking of work, apparently I have a suitor... who is ten years old. Some fifth graders told me today that one of the third graders really likes me and told them that he is planning to marry me. He even showed one of the fifth graders a ring (it has a heart on it), which is luckily just a child ring. :XD He's planning to give me the ring tomorrow, but then I might not be subbing there tomorrow.

I thought it was a hilarious.

This is adorable! :XD The only guys that hit on me at work (a pharmacy) seem to be creepy old guys.... not nearly as cute as your suitors. :s

So, Black Friday, huh? I may or may not do some shopping that day. I do have to work, but not until 3pm. I can still go at like 3-4am or whatever to get some good deals. Or I may just go the online route like you're doing. There are some free phone apps for Black Friday that show you all the deals and that you can use to make shopping lists and what not. Are you using anything like that? Have you found anything good that you're going to buy yet?

[riki]

Yeah, it's cute when elementary-aged kids have crushes on teachers; middle school and high students... not so much. :s

Yikes! That is definitely creepy. Hopefully they didn't really harass you that much. :comfort

Actually I haven't decided what to buy per se. It's more like if I like the deal and the item, I would buy it. :sweat

[igotthegoods]

Nah, it hasn't been too bad for the most part. I've had a couple actually ask me out, but usually they'll just compliment me or try to look down my shirt (very obviously -_-;) or something like that. The creepiest, though, is when you hand them their change and they linger when touching your hand. Eww. :iik

Have you had much trouble with middle school/high school kids hitting on you? That's definitely not as cute as an elementary-age kid. :s

[riki]

I don't really work with high school students; I prefer working with elementary and middle school ones.

None of them really hit on me (thank God!) but we enjoy talking about video games, life problems, and sometimes manga if I notice one of the kids has them.

[igotthegoods]

Oh good, whew~

What manga have you seen your students carrying? That's so cool! I wish I had found manga at such a young age. I was such a late bloomer to the scene. T__T

[riki]

It's mostly Naruto but I did see a girl reading D.Gray-man. ^^

[Charlie]

It's mostly Naruto but I did see a girl reading D.Gray-man. ^^

Wonders if that kid got any special treatments. :D

Cool!:)
Heard the one about the suitor already.Did you get the ring after all?Are you engaged now?:XD

[riki]

Wonders if that kid got any special treatments. :D

Not really. It was study hall so I couldn't really give her special treatment. :p

I just hinted to her about the current events that happened in the Japanese chapters.


:hurr

Naruto is very popular here so I wasn't surprised.


]Cool!:)
Heard the one about the suitor already.Did you get the ring after all?Are you engaged now?:XD

Nope. I didn't work for that teacher last Wednesday so he couldn't give me the ring. It would be awkward though and I don't know if I would accept it. But then, I probably would just to humor him. ^^

Here is one from last week:

Boy #1: Why do you look so different from us? (it's the fact that I'm Asian)
Boy #2: Dude, don't ask the teacher that?
Me: Well, does everyone look the same?
Boy #1: No, but were you born here?
Me: Yes
Boy #1: Were your parents?
Me: Nope
Boy #1: I thought so *satisfied*
Me: But still, do you look the same like [Boy #2]?
Boy #1: No
Me: It would be pretty boring if everyone looks the same.
Boy #2: Yeah, that's true
Boy #1: I'm glad that I'm not a girl or else I would be popping out babies!
Me: .... Not all girls are planning to "pop out" babies. -_-;

[Arrogance]

I see that you finally have black ops :p

[riki]

Yeppers and we got it before you were at maximum level. :p

What university did you go to? :ninja

[riki]

Miami <- if you spell it backward, it would be "I maim" :p

[Arrogance]

Yeppers and we got it before you were at maximum level. :p
One, maximum level is lvl 50 15th prestige and NOBODY has that yet. Two, I went out for the night so thats why :p.

[riki]

I got a funny work story.

I was teaching two kindergartners rhyming words and showing them how the rhymed words have the same ending (e.g. "car" and "star" has "-ar").


Me: What word rhyme with 'sad'?
Girl: Bad, glad...
Me: *giving a hint* If you're angry, you're...?
Girl: Upset?
Me: Well yeah, but what is another word for "angry"?
Girl: Angry?
Me: Umm... if you're angry, you're ma-?
Girl: Marie?
Me: No, you're mad.

So apparently if you're Marie, you're mad. :XD

[Xadyu]

So.. who's Marie then? :oh

And did you play Epic Yarn all ready or have you still not touched that epic piece of .. epic yarn? :oh

[riki]

I have no idea where she got Marie from. I didn't bother to ask. :sweat

I haven't played the game yet. I need to bug one of my brothers to play with me but they're busy with school and/or work. :darn

[Organizized]

You know you can play single player though, right? :eyeroll Although that's most likely not nearly as much fun.

[riki]

I know, but I like playing as the second player. ^^

[Organizized]

Agreed, gotta love that little frowny guy. :tem

Wait, but... you said you hadn't played it yet. :oh

[riki]

I haven't yet but I'll probably be playing as Prince Fluff while one of my brothers is going to play as Kirby if we start playing it. >.>

[Xadyu]

Just play it already! :o

I know it's more fun playing with more persons, just like NSMBW, but you shouldn't wait! :darn

It's too awesome to let it lie around..:shakefist

[riki]

Okay, okay. I'll play it. >.>

[Xadyu]

Yay! \o/

[riki]

My brother and I just played the beginning. It was pretty cute and we had fun tossing each other; he even threw my character out of Kirby's apartment. :XD

I still need to get used to the controller being sideways though. :darn
[hr]
I have another funny work story~

At the end of the day, I had to draw five names out of the Star Student box (kids who were good) so they can get prizes from the Prize Box. Here is what happened after the first giveaway:


Me: And the first person is... Ella!
Boys: Yeah, Ella! Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.
Me: Oh, singing part of Umbrella?
Kids: *awestruck* You know that song!? :o

They probably thought I'm old or something beforehand. -_-;

What does your family usually make for Thanksgiving?

[riki]

The typical stuff - turkey, mashed potato, cranberry sauce, stuffing, pumpkin pie, and sweet potato casserole.

How's about yours?

[thornofcarrion]

Hi Riki,

How are you doing? How is the job going? Is it the same one or did you switch to another one?

[riki]

Hey, toc! :)

I'm doing well and I've been getting a lot of sub jobs, which are for different teachers. I don't have a long-term sub assignment so far this year but maybe later on. ^^

[After_Image]

The typical stuff - turkey, mashed potato, cranberry sauce, stuffing, pumpkin pie, and sweet potato casserole.

How's about yours?

Yeah I think we are doing the same but with a bit more Mexican food, like tamales and whatnot. I don't particularly like turkey by itself but do like the turkey sandwiches I can make from the leftovers. :XD



I do like me some pie and cheesecake. http://i1021.photobucket.com/albums/af334/dbust3r/smile/hmlolkz3.png

[riki]

You know what would be more awesome - pumpkin cheesecake. :drool

[Arrogance]

Hey Kim! How are you going to be spending your thanksgiving? Do you go anywhere or are you the family that hosts the event itself :p.

I myself am going to my aunts house and the whole family meets up there. :amuse

[riki]

I'm just having Thanksgiving with my immediate family.

I hope you'll have fun at your aunt's house. ^^

I hope I do too :XD. On the bright side the jets are playing tomorrow night so it should make thanksgiving more enjoyable....just as long as they win :dancin

[riki]

Who are they playing against: Detroit or Dallas?

Either way, if they lose, that would be humiliating since both teams suck right now

[Arrogance]

Neither, they are playing the Bengals :p

Dallas is playing Patriots and Detroit is playing the Saints.

[riki]

Cincy is playing tomorrow? LOL

I haven't followed the Bungles for awhile. :sweat

[Arrogance]

Cincy is playing tomorrow? LOL

I haven't followed the Bungles for awhile. :sweat
Yea, Its understandable, they aren't having too god of a season. It seems like tomorrow its all bad teams vs good teams. The way things "should" work out are a victory for the Patriots, Saints, and Jets. Although Ideally I would love for the Patriots to lose to Dallas but thats highly unlikely.

Sleeping in is a good idea.

BTW, how is the weather over there?

Sleeping in is a good idea.

Well since I've slept in all day and haven't gone outside I can't tell you on first hand experience :XD.

But looking though the crack of my window I'd say cloudy, but I don't think its raining since it rained and actually sleeted for a bit for most of the day yesterday. It may be a bit warmer than it was yesterday though. Yesterday was 40's, could be like 50 today.....

Thats today's weather and now back to Kim at the main newsdesk! :ohaielmo

[riki]

Thanks, Arro.

In other news, my family is dogsitting my sister's dog (Bennet) again. My mom took him for a walk this morning and while I was taking my dog out to the bathroom, they were coming back. Well, my mom let go of the leash so Bennie could run over to me. Unfortunately, he was so excited, he knocked me onto the ground. Hopefully, none of the neighbors were watching; they would probably be laughing about it. :sweatdrop

We would make a dynamic news duo. :XD

I didn't know you are a Star Driver fan. :hi5 Yep, I watched it online on Sunday.

Mizuno is so adorable. I agree that she has more personality. You'll probably like episode 14 summary (http://ninteenpointzerofour.wordpress.com/2010/12/07/new-summaries-2/#comments). :ninja


Yeah the 10th episode was great because of light-hearted Marino vs Takuto in depth. I especially liked the end when Mizuno said to Marino that they always like the same thing... and Marino's first love :XD

Yeah, I love Marino's expression after Mizuno said that statement. It's like, "Oh shit, I have a crush on Takuto!" :o I wonder how she will deal with her conflicting emotions about him.

Mizuno's song really matches her personality as well - full of innocence and hope.


But yeah Mizuno is cooler than Wako and she seems to understand Takuto more than Wako

I like how Mizuno came to cheer Takuto up after the baseball game and when she defended him after Marino claimed that Takuto is like the others (e.g. seeing her as stupid and not believing her spells). I think that factor really boosts Marino's image of Takuto.


You want me to endanger myself by leaving the sacred grounds of the MtM and FF boards? :oh

riki posts in the otaku theatre Star Driver thread~ :amuse *tempts Xadyu*

She's telling the truth, X. :amuse

Anyway, here are some funny work stories.


During Calendar Time
Aide: What day is it today?
Boy: It's Tuesday
Aide: That's right! What letter does it begin with?
Boy: 2?

Yesterday, I was working at a middle school and I was in a Language Arts classroom. The teacher was going over the definition of "tactful" and how it's important to be tactful in life. She explained that young children do not learn tact and would just blurt out everything. She used an example of her then 6 yrs old nephew.

She and her husband took him bowling one day. While waiting for his turn, her nephew noticed that the bowler next to him was a tall African American so he came up to the man and announced while pointing at him, "You're black!"

The man just gave him a "Yeah, I know" look while she and her husband were mortified. Luckily, her husband made a quick comeback to the nephew, "Yeah, and you're short!" :XD

[After_Image]

I can't wait to see that episode now. :wtf

[riki]

I think something very major is going to happen in that episode as well based on the description.

[Xadyu]

Endanger yourself? In what way? :oh It's safe outside, I assure you :amuse
Are you sure about that? :shifty I don't know.. will you protect me? :wtf

I hope you post in spoilers, because I'm about to watch the first episode and I just might post in that thread. :amuse

Oh, is she.. :hurr

[Koen]

Yeah, Xadyu... The discussions, mostly reviews, in that thread are really interesting. Furthermore, discussing about anime is totally different than discussing about manga. I think you'll enjoy giving your input over there
[hr]


I like how Mizuno came to cheer Takuto up after the baseball game and when she defended him after Marino claimed that Takuto is like the others (e.g. seeing her as stupid and not believing her spells). I think that factor really boosts Marino's image of Takuto.

Yes. I think that Marino didn't expect that and it may indeed have changed her image of Takuto. On the other hand, it also proves that Marino thinks wrong about her sister. Marino should know that Mizuno will only tell that spell to the people she can completely trust, Marino and Takuto. Mizuno trusts Takuto and she wasn't wrong with that

[Xadyu]

It's a pinch-a :bored

True. I just think Marino is overprotective about her sister, which I don't blame since her parents abandoned them when they were young.

Indeed. I always have a smile whenever I heard Takuto said those lines.

BTW, I read that on the Star Driver radio show, the seiyuu who voiced Takuto told the seiyuu of Head and Fish Girl that he tried singing "Monochrome" and the Fish Girl's seiyuu's reaction was o_O. :XD

[Xadyu]

I watched the first episode.. I haven't felt the urge to discuss it with you guys though. :oh

[riki]

It's okay. I think I didn't start discussing the series until episode 5. :amuse

[Xadyu]

Yeah, I mean, the episode is great and all, there's just not much to talk about I guess.

[Koen]

Yeah, I mean, the episode is great and all, there's just not much to talk about I guess.

It will come... A story of a book is not made by one page but by a complete book. The movie isn't made by one scene but by the whole of scenes. You can only discuss a book or a movie when you read or watched it completely

Same goes for this anime, the story is told through different episodes. After 10 episodes, you still have to take some gambles

Now you're making me curious about the different British accents.
They vary widely. Only speaking about England (as i cant tell you much about differences in scottish and welsh accents >.>), normally the main accent that people usually hear is the accent that is most common in the south. It has a reputation of being a bit "posh" and is most widely known "british accent" abroad. Btw, by south i dont mean necessarily london , they have their own accent called "cockney". Anyway a general rule of thumb is the more north you go, the thicker the accent gets.

The major ones (there are hundreds i think) are Brummie based here in Birmingham. They have their own common phrases, words etc. A main thing that is immediately noticeable with that is the "oi" sound they add to everything. Poi (pie), Moicrowave (microwaves) and the stretched "urr" sound like "Buurmingham". Ozzy speaks it. Well...he speaks it under all the slurring. Others include the Manc accent in Manchester and the "Scouse" which is spoken in Liverpool, that accent by the way is just horrible. At times it sounds indistinguishable from nonsense. Some major england football players speak it, but they get media and most likely elocution training so they are understandable at least. Other major ones include the Yorkshire accent prevalent in Leeds, the "Geordie" in Newcastle (yea most have random names >___>). These are some funny videos on on the yorkshire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzAD2GLfaNU) and Geordie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxvHGxRbn5U&feature=related) accents.

Most cities and large towns have distinct accents, so at times people can tell where a person is from just their accent. This has diminished in recent times. Close to my house though, there is an old lady that lives by the local school who talks a lot to parents. She loves telling people what neighbourhood (!!) people grew up in Birmingham just from their accents. Anyway there probably is a whole science devoted this stuff and this just barely scratches the surface. >_>;

Same. Might have a get together with my immediate family or go over to my grandmothers house for a big family reunion.

I know for sure it isn't going to snow here. Not because it doesn't snow but because I live in a valley were the snow never reaches. I can drive up an hour and a half to Lake Tahoe to see all the snow I want though. :amuse

Well, I find the little ones adorable. The older ones... not so much. :XD Some of the older ones are well-behaved while others are not. For example, this girl refused to do her work and drew whenever no one was paying attention to her.

How old is your brother if you don't mind my asking? How is the special education program like in your country?

I agree with you riki, Kids are so adorable. Until they reach about 7 years old that is :\

5 years old seems to be teh perfect age. Kids are just so cute at that age.

It's going pretty well. I'm on break so I'm sleeping in and relaxing. :amuse I still need to wrap my presents and decide on what to give my mom though.

We're expecting snow today (1-2 in) and on Christmas Eve/Christmas (3-5 in). Luckily I don't have to go out that much. ^^

You?

Hey Kim! Sorry I've been ignoring you but I've just been way too busy lately. Hows everything going for you? Are you enjoying your break yet?

[Arrogance]

I am and I am not. This is one of those years where its sneaking up on me. lol. My mind is in too many other places so I'm not even thinking about it. Like tonight for example I'm going out with a bunch of my friends for my bday but it just feels like we are all just getting together to hang out and not like its for my bday.

I think he might get it for True Grit though. From what I've seen in the preview, he was entertaining to watch.

Anyway, how is the birthday boy today?

[Arrogance]

The Birthday boy is very very happy! And it's not even like I'm doing anything, frankly last night was too awesome that I don't care if I do anything else for the rest of the day, haha.

I do actually need to go to a funeral in an hour though because one of my neighbors passed away the other day. But don't worry, it doesn't overshadow anything.

[riki]

I'm glad that you had an awesome night. :nod

Sorry about your neighbor though. :comfort I bet you got along with him or her.

BTW, Capcom is selling MvC3 at their store (http://shop.capcom.com/store/capcomus/en_US/pd/ThemeID.1944700/productID.222668700) now, but the only bonus is a free T-shirt, which is disappointing. Based on some of comments, I think there might be another SE... hopefully.

Merry Christmas riki! How was your day?

[riki]

You too, M3J!

My day was pretty good. I got a lot of cool presents and all of the NBA teams that I wanted to win won yesterday. :tem The dogs got along as well.

How was yours?

[M3J]

Thanks!

You like the Heat over Lakers?! :yelling LeBron James is a sellout, though all I know about that is from the media/blogs from Yahoo! front page. What kind of presents did you get?

Mine was kinda boring, though we did go to Atlantic City and our dads won a lot. My mom tried gambling in slots and won $25 from $20 she spent, so that's a profit, though it's all profit since we got $20 for free. Not old enough this year, but next year, I shall be gambling drunk with three cigarettes in my mouth, looking all epic and cool. B)

Ever been to Atlantic City?

[riki]

Yeah, I like the Heats though I root for the Lakers when they play against Boston. I disagree that James was a sellout. He spent seven years with Cleveland (he was supposed to have only a four years contract but he added a three years extension) and he did fulfill his contract with the team. I agree that he'll probably have a better chance of winning the NBA championship with the Heats and not to mention the fact that he WAS a free agent so he could choose which team he wanted to play. He also agreed to play for less money in Miami than he would have made if he plays for other teams. He did not betray Cleveland per se but the way he did it was in bad taste.

Anyway, I just got anime DVDs, a scarf, money, and an Amazon gift card. You?

At least your family made a profit. ^^ Make sure you take a pic of yourself next year. I'm already imagining what you looked like already. :amuse

I haven't been to Atlantic City but my great aunt used to live there before she died.

[M3J]

It was in horrible taste, especially to his fans. From what I heard, it took him at least an hour to announce his decision to play with the Heat, and until then, there were videos of him or something. :fail

I guess Cleveland is angry because he was one of the main reasons his team did pretty well and was the major attraction of the city. From what I heard though, many of his teammates on Heat were his rivals, and some bloggers didn't like it because rivals vs. rivals bring out the best in each other, not teammates.

Nice. What anime?

I just got money from what my dad won. I don't want much other than a new HDTV in the basement for PS3. v.v Though I forgot I wanted 360, lulz, but bad idea cuz Dad chews my head off for wasting electricity.

We did, I think. why take a pic of myself next year? o.o Though I did look epic in my button-up shirt and shaved face. :3c Let's do this, I take a pic of myself next year, and you do too! We'll exchange!

You should go there once. It's no Las Vegas, but some ar... oh what the heck? The place isn't that good, but some casinos are fun. Of course, I'm not that privy on nightlife activity as I'm not of age yet and don't live near there. :s Try to go at night or at least, look at the city at night. It looks pretty, especially with its light and decoration.

[riki]

I got Eden of the East and Ouran High School Host Club. My brother got The Irresponsible Captian Tylor. We are planning to watch them while I'm on break. ^^

I just wanted to see you with three cigs in your mouth. It could look either pretty cool or funny though I think majority of the mods would pick the latter. :p Let me think about your offer before I make my decision. ^^

I'll put visiting Atlantic City as one of my to-do list then.

[saladesu]

Ooh Ouran!! That's a good one to watch :3 very hilarious and maybe you'll spot something that'll make you think of a certain scene in SD! :hurr I'm convinced BoNES was making an Ouran reference with that scene :p

Oh, nice. You ever see/read either of those anime before?

Oh. Forgot I said that. Unfortunately, I won't spend money on cigarettes, hopefully anyway, since I dislike 'em. I wasn't well when I went, and the cigarette smokes did not help at all. -.- Majority of mods have no taste though, so it's okay. =D

Do it! Do it! The city at dark is awesome, from afar!

[riki]

I have watched Ouran and Eden of the East but I haven't read/watched Captain Tylor though I heard really good reviews about it. Have you watched any of them?

[M3J]

Nope. I tend to avoid anime because of few bad animes. :notrust

How'd you like Ouran and Eden of the East?

[riki]

I know what you mean. I haven't really watched much anime recently.

Both of them are very good animes. Ouran has an original ending since the manga was still running back then, but I thought they did a great job on it. Eden was an original anime and it was pretty entertaining to watch. The ending was open-ended since the series had two sequel movies afterward.

[M3J]

Ah, gotcha. Neither of 'em have manga version?

[riki]

Ouran did. It just ended recently though. I don't think Eden has one though.

[M3J]

I think Ouran even had a nomination in the Awards contest. :s

Anyway, what are your plans for New Year's Eve?

[riki]

Umm... watch TV, eat, and drink. It's too cold to go out.

You?

[riki]

Nope, the snowstorm missed us so we're lucky. The only thing we got was flurries. ^^

I didn't get any new games for Christmas, but I got some animes, which I mentioned earlier. I did buy my brother the Uncharted 2 art book, which he likes.

Not sure if we'll go there or not, it's never concrete. I hope we do go.

It was bad here but not anymore. Snow's melting too fast IMO. -.- How about you? Weather tolerable?

[riki]

Yeah, I really don't care about it.

I guess your cousin is a fun guy to be around with. :amuse

We only had flurries last week and the weather is supposed to be warming up by the end of the week.

[M3J]

He is, but his family hosts the party, usually, and I like meeting up with the family from time to time. Some of my cousins are awesome though, and pretty funny, but I guess it's cuz they were raised in America. :3c

Warming up? SOunds boring, especially for winter. D'you like heat or the cold better?

[riki]

Oh that's cool. Hopefully, you'll hang out at his place then. :amuse

I have to agree that the weather is kinda boring since I usually associate winter with snow nad whatnot. Well, I prefer the heat as long as it's not too hot.

[M3J]

Hopefully. The cousin who usually hosts the party is two weeks younger than me. If I didn't pop out early and he not late, we'd be apparently born on the same week. Coincidence ftw?
Anyway, do you usually like family gathering?

Oh, so you like snow? :o

[riki]

Coincidence FTW all right. :nod I bet you guys would have a big birthday bash then if that happened.

Well, family gathering is okay. The only problem is they tend to brag (and exaggerate) a lot, which my mom cannot stand. :oh

I like snow especially if I have a snow day. :p Other than that, it's annoying to shovel the driveway and drive on icy roads.
