Oboegal, if you're talking about 1974, you're probably referring to the famous Ice Storm, the one that was the subject of Rick Moody's fiction & Ang Lee's film.

To everyone who bawls over the SPCA commercial or changes the channel, are we heartless creatures or the opposite? Something to think about. I say the opposite.
Also, I'm trying to decide what I think of the guy who plays "Mayhem" on the insurance commercials. I think I'd like to slap him. I think that's why they cast him. I think he looks like someone who'd be really obnoxious to you at a party or in a bar, if he came onto you. Or like a person whom you do not want to be promoted to become your boss.
