Hmmm....

A week in the East-Coast winter is long enough for me to remember a few things about growing up in a place with snow.

It will always be cold getting out of bed in the morning. Always.

The car will always be cold, even after dashing through land mines of black ice to warm it up.

And the ice scraper you’re holding to scrape the ice off your window... never works. NEVER.

I have gotten the early stages of frostbite using one of these. And of course you try and buy the one with the dope-looking brush on the end. The brush does nothing but sweep the ice into a new formation on the windshield.

I’m about to get into my car, which has the genius of a combustable engine under the hood, and we can’t come up with something but a hardened piece of plastic so that I can see while driving through a snowstorm.

We have shot human beings to The Moon from where they have jumped around and played golf.

We created the internet.

We can get on an airplane and FLY ourselves to ungodly temperatures.

And a billion years into the development of this planet, and we still haven’t worked this one out?!?!

Having grown up near Detroit, the former automobile capital of the world, I saw that even they don't have a real solution to scraping ice off your windshields.

A piece of plastic with grooves at the end, is all that we have. That’s it.

And it doesn’t work AT ALL.

I don’t have an iphone, but now four generations old, surely they must be developing an “app for that”.

Can we put aside global warming for a second, and all of our differences and languages, stop financing all of our wars and speculative trading on the commodities market, can we hit pause on the Super Bowl, and just put our brains together for one minute and figure this one out once and for all.

First things, first.

We have as an entire planet FAILED because of this.

FACT.
