Ice Skating In Portland

A friend who lives in Portland sent me a link to this earlier today. Appears it's out on the web now.

Ice. Ice, is not nice.

Except when you can control your spin doing handbrake turns in an empty parking lot, however.

... Crashing is not nice.

The person in the Volvo SUV should be tied to a pole so that all the people who's cars he/she hit can beat the crap out of them....

EXTREME DRIFTING!!!!

Wow, I'm impressed. There have been times when I've almost hit cars but got traction at just the right time. Also helps knowing how to actually drive a car (and in their cases, when not to). The car drifting sideways for a block was awesome.

Heh, I saw that on the local portland news the night it happened. It was like that all over, people just forgot how to drive in all the slippery stuff.

Pretty sad, but makes for good entertainment after the fact.
