I can totally relate to this story after spending two hours shoveling my driveway and sidewalk this morning thinking I was about to pass out the whole time.
Over in Sweden they recently launced a fleet of drones that can show up with a defibrillator and help someone who is having a heart attack or medical emergency.
Then in December it was put to the test when a 71-year-old guy collapsed while shoveling snow at his house. The drone took about three minutes to get to the man arriving before paramedics could get there. Another person at the house grabbed the equipment and zapped him with it saving his life. The man pulled through and has made a full recovery.
Unbelievable!

You’ve heard it for years… “no two snowflakes are exactly alike” but is that even true?
It’s not actually. Back in 1988 a U.S. scientist in Boulder, CO named Nancy Knight found two identical snowflakes while she was studying snow crystals. The flakes were taken from a storm in Wisconsin and she made the discovery using a microscope.
So with this snow storm we had today you might be able to go out there and find two that are the same! Good luck.

More stories coming out of that awful traffic jam on 95 in Virgina/DC earlier this week.
A woman named Casey Noe was stuck in the car with her husband. And after 21 hours of not moving naturally they were starving. A few cars away they noticed a big bread truck that was also stranded.
It was a delivery truck for a company called Schmidt Baking. Casey decided to call the customer service number to see if they’d let the driver hand out bread to people on the highway. Smart thinking! Luckily then the owner of the bakery called her right back and approved it. They ended up handing out loaves of bread to more than 50 cars around them.

It’s January 6th and I feel like a lot of people still have their Christmas trees up. Which seems crazy to me, but apparently today actually is “National Take Down Your Christmas Tree Day” so I guess today’s the day.
We took ours down the Sunday after New Years. Which seemed right. If you have real tree, those only last about four to five weeks at best. So you really want to take it down before it becomes a fire hazard. The National Fire Protection Association even put out a statement telling people that now is the time to take them down. They say almost a third of Christmas tree fires happen in January.
If you have a fake tree… go wild, leave it up till March!
