Snow. What The Fuck?

So... snow is beautiful.  It makes everything just look THAT much Christmasier (sic) and just has that certain "je ne sais quois" to it. 

Well fuck that. I drive. As a person that commutes to and from work, and pays his taxes, I'd like to just say that our local government has really fucked the dog during this dump of white shit.

26 cm of snow, and I've seen 2 sand trucks (no salt) and a plow. But what REALLY gets me is the fact that they plow the main roads... and nothing else! Sure, the highway is clear as a bottle of water, but to get to it, you need snowshoes and a pack of dogs.

Why do I pay my taxes?? I shouldn't HAVE to own a 4x4 to get groceries for less than a foot of snow. It's ridiculous. I have lived in Edmonton, Prince George, Houston, BC, Smithers, BC, Terrace.... I have NEVER had so much trouble getting around in my car.  And what's worse is no-one else seems to see the problem with driving 70 km/h in a snow drift in a Saturn. 

I have an idea.... Everyone has heard of geothermal heat, right???  All roads from now on should be equipped with a series of pads made of steel and pipes drilled down to access geothermal heat, so that the road surface never drops below 8 degrees Celsius. Snow would never stick to it, therefore SAVING money in the long run on sand, salt trucks, plows, and other needless things that not only cost money, but cause damage to the environment. 

I am NOT dreaming of a white Christmas. I'm living it.  This is my Nightmare.
