    Five minutes after I posted this last night, my squad was called to assist in a car wreck. Black ice on the road and a vehicle went off and into a tree. The driver was instructed to complete a Field Sobriety Test with the Highway Patrol Officer. Rather interesting to watch a person wearing low traction footwear attempting to do the old Heel-to-Toe walk on black ice that even we with various footwear styles were having problems with.
    I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.
