we are growing a big 'ol crop of deadly icicles at our house.
now, i didn't know that icicles could be killers.
yes, i know the line the Ralphie's mother says in A Christmas Story...
"Icicles have been known to KILL people!"
but in all reality, have you ever heard of a frozen eave-cicle
hunting someone down and bashing them to death?
didn't think so...
until i watched the news the other night and they had a story about "potentially hazardous icicles" (i'm leaning heavily on that "potentially" part. why a spoon could be "potentially hazardous" too...as well as kittens and socks and q-tips....just saying)
the news story went on to say that in 2010 five people were killed by icicles in St. Petersburg Russia.
(i'm thinking there might have been a little vodka involved with that ice hanging off the roof!)
but you never can be too careful...
so watch out for deadly icicles -
they could be stalking you now!
