Mine will too, when it's reasonably warm out, but not below -15 or so. Below -30 it's even longer, and might not keep it clear, and I need to open windows just so moisture goes somewhere other than the windshield.,

If it's cold outside it usualky takes at least 10 minutes to be warm enough to keep the windshield clear, so not all of it will be walking.

To be fair, I've been rewarded more than once with a nail in my tire for driving my car on the road too.

But agree, it sucks and is good reason to use multiuse paths where they exist.

Now, you could get around it by calling someone "a female person" - except that we already have a word for "female person", and that's "woman".

I'm going to nitpick a touch. "Female person" includes girls. "Women" ecludes them.

Rural Ontario is Canada's "South". Not Alberta. Not Saskatchewan, rural Ontario.

Ironically, it's a very old term for a powerpoint presentation. Presentations used to be done with actual photographic slides in a projector. They were stored in a deck of slides.

I only know this from Mad Men.

One of the girls didn't have any smoothie. She said he came downstairs multiple times to check if they were asleep.

Sounds fishy.

Cassy Jones from the 80s-tastic Ninja Turtles movie said it best: "You have to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket".
