Glass, Meet Shovel

No friendly little cubes here - glass shards. The sharp ones.

A few nights ago, one of our neighbors got stumbling drunk and came over to our house. After trying to “hang loose” with us all for a while, he decided it was a good idea to grab a shovel and beat in a few windows.

After beating in a few house windows, he left a few Parthian shots in the form of shovel blows to any windshield he found on the way.

I was actually pretty impressed at the speed with which the Auto Glass guys replaced the window. They were out within 3 business days, they got the window installed quickly and professionally.

The only catch to the whole thing? My window broke into zillions of tiny shards, which are remarkably adept at clinging to carpeting after repeated vacuuming attempts. They are also very good at worming their little invisible way into palms and fingers.
