Windshield Wiper Conspiracy

During the worst winter of my life, the last thing I want is windshield wipers that don't work. When I say they don't work, I don't mean that they won't even move. I mean when they wipe across the window and leave one streak or more RIGHT IN YOUR LINE OF SIGHT!! Am I the only one that this happens to? It always happens at the worst time too. The rain is pouring down, the wind is blowing the snow violently, the sleet is sticking everywhere, the ice is freezing the instant it hits your window. And so you say, "Thank goodness I have these handy windshield wipers to clean off my window and improve my view in this horrible storm." Then you click the windshield wipers on, they make one swipe...two swipes...and then you realize something is wrong. The windshield looks great everywhere except for that one line of moisture that is in your line of sight!

Now I don't have much scientific proof to back this up...but I'm pretty sure the windshield wiper companies have a conspiracy going to either sell more windshield wipers (since they seem broken) or kill us all. I think it might be the latter.

I am having the same problem. My wipers suck when it snows but they're fine in the rain so I haven't bothered to get new ones yet. Plus the ends are peeling off....it's pretty sad, really.

What the french toast?! Dude! It's good to hear from you. I know what you mean about the wipers. I'm putting new ones on tomorrow--or Monday--or... Anyway, thanks for the encouragement. Are you guys all settled in? You'll have to tell me about it. Are you coming up any time soon?
