1>AGI: Ã", T'IILJRSDAY, NOVIEMBI:R 23, 1972, WIi iiu;î'jZ PRI' J. BIRD'S F YF WIEW by Jim Qosial What happened? 1 don't know who is responible but it's oniy a malter of lîie tili we track the guilty party down. .It was a sneaky lhing tu, do. One nighit I weiiî lu bcd, cornpietely unsuspccting, and the nex t mrn ing, whaînino!, evcrytliing was covered withi snow. Somnebody 's responsibie. It was nol the kind utof thing that happens by accident. After ail it's oniy November and mosI of us have onIý' just started thinking about Chrisîmnas. The sanie guy thaI started ail this snow wiii, ini Uhc near future nu doubt, start setting up Christmas trce stands. lsn't il funny how the first day ut' snow catches us ail uîîprepared. Whien 1 wenî out the front duor 1 knew it hiad snowed but that didn'î prevenl mie froni sliding off the top sîep on the porch and neariy faiiing flat on mny back. "Srnarten up", 1 said to myseif and then pronmptiy backed out the driveway and alhnost skidded into the ditch across the streel. On the first day ut' snow ail the stop signs shiouid be changed ho read, 'siide to a liait'. The body shops and 10w- ing services do a boonîing business. The police hale il bc- cause it aiways means dozens uof accident reports in tîipiicaîe. Su what, a iît li snow neyer hurt anybudy. l'Il just tumn on the washers and clear off the dirt un the wînd- shieid. Doesn't work. . . . Yes Dummny, iî's frozen. Abouut this point 1 begin tînking of ail the things 1 shouid have donc lu gel the car ready for winter. Little unimpurlant things like a îuneup, anti-freeze, windshield washer suivent and snow tires. That's whiy snuw in November isn't fair. If 1 couid ski on il i .%,ould consider it fair but when il crippies miy car î's a curse dropped un me by the bird of paradise. Actuaiiy it's nul thal 1 take il personai because 1 have only lu look around and i can sec mny feiiuw man suffering as rnuch or worse than 1 amn. Picture the average husband scrounging around thc junky end uft'hte garage looking for the sleighi because the kids are jumping up and down gel ling weî feet and miaking impatient noises. And 1 would lie wîliig lu be i nios t out' uladcles didn't have lIhe kids winter snow ciuîhling out f ' ubais Mien (lic snuw hhiithle l'an. As we get ulder 1 liiink we gel iess adaptable. If' 811w fcl'ls in Novenber tiieu i t's okay with liost k ids. They can 't wai t lu gel ou t and roli a l'eow snowbalis and beit sonie pour unsuspect ing piasscrby.

Lspeciaiiy mine because 1 forgultu shuvel the porch and waik. One year my inailinan actually icit mie a note. Hie said il' id idn 't cican miy waik after every snowfaii lie wuuld bring nie nothing but bis. Su whiat cisc is niew?

The saine tintg happened luthie brush.-scraper yuu use f'or the car. 1St-apiiig that firsi snow of1f the windshieid wiliî bre hiands in 30 degree wealiîer is about as funny as a train wreck. Whoever is responsibie for the sIîow i Waft you 1 knuw il worked. I'mi afraid lu go lu bed because ('ni liable tu wake up the nexl morning and find biail îupped by an ice stol-Ii. Let's be lugicai about tibis. First the rigurs ut' Christ- mias and tihen stnow. Okay'? Let 's stand up for our riihs readers. Down witii snow, er, 1 mean (cave it Up thiere.
