Snow Monkey Scramble

The most entertaining part of winter weather in Cincinnati is the time-honored ritual of sending news crews out to the bottom of one of the larger hills. Inevitably some asshat comes sliding down the icy street smashing into other cars, and the news crew - which usually includes some ditzy communications major, freshly graduated - scrambles to get out of the way.
