The response should have been "I have a manhole!"

Matthew was out shovelling the end of the driveway and a service truck from the city pulled up. A guy came out of the van and approached him saying "Hey, do you know there's a manhole under there?" and pointed at a huge bank of snow over 6 feet high. Matthew looked where the guy was pointing and responded with "Somewhere".

When we came home from work the entire area was gouged out from what looks like some perfectly crafted machine for the sole purpose of uncovering random manholes. The manhole itself hadn't been uncovered so I'm assuming they are coming back to do the work next Monday.

When pondering the large gap in our yard I had an evil thought... what if we located the manhole and made a huge snowman on top of it?
