Political Correctness
I seem to recall some years back a lot of humor tossed about when a guy drove his Ford Bronco (a white one, no less) out off of Glendale to see whether the ice was thick enough. It wasn't.
Two guys in a Suburban driving THIS WINTER through an area well known to be unsafe in the best of years and suffering the same experience is a indeed a pretty bonehead thing to do.
We're all glad no one was hurt. And there wouldn't be much to laugh about here if they had been injured or killed. But given that they are fine, it's pretty easy to see the humor in this -- especially given the vehicle involved.
So please, to suggest that we aren't allowed to poke a little fun at this because a member of this forum is related to the lakes region's latest winter aquanauts is beyond silly. Just my opinion.
