I have a useful car tip for you. Keep ice from forming on the glass of your windshield by using a windshield protector. You can even use cardboard, a tarp, rubber bath mat, or cloth, as long as it’s dry. Just lay it out over the glass and keep it in place with the windshield wipers. It is also recommended you use plastic bags to cover your wing mirrors and then secure them with rubber bands. This will save you time from having to de-ice them prior to taking off. Have a carrier bag ready in your car to store your windshield cover once you are done using it.
Now, it’s time to find out how much hilarity the following joke contains. It’s called, “Winter Migration.”
A couple purchased an old home in New Jersey from the wife’s two elderly sisters. Winter was coming, and the wife was concerned about the house's bad insulation. But the husband seemed confident:
“You know, if they could live here all these years with the insulation we’ve got, so can we!”
One November night, the temperature plunged below zero, and the couple woke up to find the interior walls covered with frost. The husband later called one of the sisters and asked:
“How on earth did you guys keep the house warm during the winters?”
“Well, actually, we didn’t have to because for the past 20 years we've been going to Florida for the winter.”
?!
