Law of Momentum on a Slick Surface

We have had a week of very cold temperatures and lots of snow. As a result, the roads were very slippery and that of course didn't slow Brett or me down. In between the time that I leave to go to school and the time when I come back home for lunch, the snow plow had made its way down our street. As I was driving at a very cautious 27 miles an hour around the curve by our house, I noticed the bank of snow the the snow plow left in front of our driveway. This sight called for only one action and that was to accelerate to a less precautious speed of 31 miles per hour to prevent a high centered car. The acceleration worked great and the car flew over the bank of snow, literally, and kept flying until it hit the front yard where it came to an ever so gentle stop. The upside to this, besides the fact that it was extremely fun, was that mom no longer had to worry about shoveling the driveway; it was nice and clear.

Since high school for Brett and me consists of going and sitting around doing nothing for 7 hours then coming home with zero homework or brain enlightment; we decided to pull out a puzzle and give the brain its proper attention for the day. The ping pong table serves for a great card table, it is big enough that tomorrow dad will be picking up a second puzzle so we can have a stick of doublemint gum and get to work. As you can see from the picture, this puzzle has a tree and a shed ( insert Shane's abscure finger movements)
