Snow Angel

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

I came to visit my parents during the Christmas holidays. I wondered who made the strange looking "Snow Angel" near their front door.

Doctors do best with scapels and probably should be kept far away from electicity.

My father had been on a ladder with a pair of needle nose pliers trying to extract a broken Christmas light from it's socket. I suppose leaving the lights plugged in helped him see the broken light he was attempting to retrieve.

This is one of the reasons that every pair of pliers I have has an insulated handle!
