How Helpful is This?

Do you see the cute little ice scraper in the picture above that we were given as a freebie at the county fair? The woman at the booth told us it would be helpful. It begs several questions:
  1. Is this all the ice scraper we'll need living here in Tennessee? It's pictured here next to a cell phone so you can see just how small this little ice scraper is. Is this someone's idea of getting off the little bit of ice we'll experience here?
  2. Is the woman nuts? Was this a joke? Maybe you've seen the Wendy's commercials where a guy is eating a burger the size of a button and drinking from a straw and cup the size of a thimble and he proudly tells you it's $2.99. This ice scraper makes you think, "$2.99."
  3. Did the woman mean this ice scraper would be great for scraping ice off my side view mirror (or from a Barbie car or a Matchbox car for that matter)? If so, it could be helpful.
  4. Will this little scraper be helpful in finding my keys in my purse?
  5. Have we died and gone to weather heaven? (I guess this is related to #1 above.) After living in the mountainous, snowy west and shoveling snow and scraping windshields, maybe moving to Tennessee is God's weather gift to us.
Seriously, as the weather changes, we'll soon find out how this cute little ice scraper will be "helpful" and we'll let you know! For now, we're having fun with the possibilities.
