The Snowman Conspiracy

We just had a giant major snowstorm here in Colorado. Everything was closed, the roads, the schools, all the businesses, everything. The airport has been closed for two days, which is the longest in the history of this airport. The governor even declared it a state of emergency and the National Guard was here helping people get their cars off the highway.

Around my neighborhood, people were just starting to venture out again. A couple people managed to dig their cars out from underneath about four feet of snow, but most people failed and abandoned their cars in the middle of the road. Other than that, the streets were pretty empty all day.

Then tonight, we noticed something....

There were dozens of snowmen on all the corners, some of them up to seven feet high! The weird part was that we never saw anyone building them. I would think that an giant seven foot snowman takes a while to construct, but these seemed to just manifest out of nowhere. At first, it was cute and it brought holiday cheer, but then it was almost spooky.

It reminded me of Jack Frost, my favorite bad holiday movie. No, it's not the friendly family movie with Michael Keaton, but the one about a giant mutant killer snowman that terrorizes a Colorado town called Snowmonton. The film also features a young Shannon Elizabeth being killed by the snowman in a very special way. Netflix it folks. It's good stuff.
