Well, Sonny Davis was often called “Frostbite” due to his hair and carpenter fingers (not all there, like frostbite can do to you). But you didn’t ask “Who” frostbite was, so you can just ignore my reply. Missing Sonny – he was a family friend.

Frostbite is when the skin freezes. The worst case I ever saw was a woman coming off the single chair at Stowe. It was a 4 blanket day. 3 for your body and 1 wrapped around your head. Her cheek was frozen and split quite deeply.
As for starting your car, I always had an engine block heater installed. It worked very well as I always started. At a motel one night, I plugged into an outlet where I unplugged the soda machine. I made my escape very early the next morning before the manager realized that the soda machine was frozen solid.
I think one experiences frost bite when they forget their anniversary.
I really wanted to say that this line in last week’s column was hilarious: No more holding that key in the start position “while the cylinders vote” on whether the engine will start or not. I can remember when 7 or 8 was just enough.
