Halloranns testicles turned into two small wrinkled sacs filled with shaved
ice。 His guts seemed to have been transformed into a large mass of Silly Putty。
Color was materializing out of the white now; snow…clotted orange。 He could
see the high cab; even the gesticulating figure of the driver behind the single
long wiper blade。 He could see the V shape of the plows wing blades; spewing
more snow up onto the roads left…hand embankment like pallid; smoking exhaust。
WHAAAAAAAAA! the airhorn bellowed indignantly。
He squeezed the accelerator like the breast of a muchloved woman and the Buick
scooted forward and toward the right。 There was no embankment over here; the
plows headed up instead of down had only to push the snow directly over the

(The drop; ah yes; the drop — )

looking into a bottomless chasm of swirling snow and vague greenish…gray pines
far away and far below。
(Im going holy mother of Jesus Im going off)
And that was where the car stopped; canting forward at a thirty…degree angle;
the left fender jammed against a guardrail; the rear wheels nearly off the
ground。 When Hallorann tried reverse; the wheels only spun helplessly。 His heart
was doing a Gene Krupa drumroll。
He got out — very carefully he got out — and went around to the Buicks back
