Some days are better than others

I guess some days are better than others... the Maine Developer Network user group meeting was cancelled due to severe weather warnings. I did however intend to go and pick my parents up at the airport in Bangor. Bad idea...

The picture below shows my truck in a ditch on the side of the road. One second I was motoring along... next second I had zero control over the truck, it just started sliding... no brakes, no steering, no ABS... nothing... luckily no one was injured and my truck only has a couple of dents...
