True fact about me: in 1999, I once fell asleep at the wheel driving from Milwaukee back to Green Bay in the middle of a snowstorm, overcorrected when I realized what was happening, went into the median and then back onto the interstate, where I proceeded to do three full 360s, still with about 50mph forward momentum, with an 18-wheeler right behind me. And stayed on the road after that. See, you folks were <em>that close</em> to not having to read my blog. Better luck next time! :shock: Bet that didn't do any favors to the cardiovascular system of the truck driver either, come to think of it...

I fished-tailed my very first car really bad during one winter and I swore to get a front wheel drive for my next vehicle. I haven't fish-tailed since (although I DID do a 360 on an icy bridge once @_@). Don't get me wrong, I'm not telling you to get front wheel drive. I just wanted to say I like my front wheel drive vehicle. :) (I just said <i>front wheel drive</i> four, er, five times). Is your car front wheel drive or rear wheel drive?
