Freeze
Hi Guys,
Just got these pictures of frozen cars, got them in a powerpoint presentation but I copy/paste them in some pics to be able to post them here.
Look at the antenna of the car on the second pic!
BTW no idea where these were taken, but just enjoy.

Re: Freeze
Holy freakin' crap on a stick!
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling that thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature, who has no chance at being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. -- John Stuart Mill--

Fun, fun and more fun. But do not be selfish. Provide some fun and you will receive some fun.

Re: Freeze
Now im no expert on these matters but I think it has something to do with subzero temperatures and a high wind coming from the sea (or lake). The spray of the water freezes to the cars, street and trees and grows from there on.
