Phrase primarily in rural, folk or country use in the USA. Often used to refer to an eye that is so swollen and black (usually due to a fist punch), it appears closed over.

Ma. south coast into R.I. Pretty good. Rain washed away most of the salt. Sunny, 40deg. when we left, 28 when we got home at dusk. Cold tires, sandy corners and frost heaves made it interesting. More tomorrow. GET OUT AND RIDE! Title: Re: Real Time New England Road Conditions (VT, WMNF, ME, NH) Post by: Popeye the Sailor on February 26, 2010, 07:19:38 PM ;D

isn't that what skid tests are for? skid test: on a straight section of road, test the skid factor by hitting the brakes in a controlled slide Title: Re: Real Time New England Road Conditions (VT, WMNF, ME, NH) Post by: herm on February 28, 2010, 05:07:38 PM that sign was blown over by the 70 mph winds on Thursday night, and washed away by the torrential rains.
its replacement was covered in heavy wet snow, and then hit by a huge falling tree. the mangled wreckage then burned to the ground when the power lines on that road came down, starting the only winter wild fire in NH history.

Links to 302 which has some new surface, Rt 25 nearby was an excellent twistie ride. Hooks on to Rt5 which is nice, it follows I91 so it also lacks traffic. |
