Walking under the shower Igot dressed quickly when he got the call from his secretary that his private jet was ready. He just wished his business tour to Minneapolis would be a success. Half an hour of flying he could hear the announcement that got him to tenterhooks at the same time with unsurmountable rage. 'Hello, Mr Collomen." The captain greeted him. "I've just gotten word of a massive snowstorm brewing right in our path."
