SNOWBALL'S CHANCE

Dear Teachers,

1. She invited me to go over with them for dinner.

- "over" here is used to emphasize, right?

2. From what you've described, I don't think you have a snowball's chance in heck.

- What does "have a snowball's chance in heck" mean here?

3. I think you're going to have to be mature and reasonable, and realize the time has come to call it quits.

- What does "the time has come to call it quits" mean here?

Thanks very much to Teachers,

Stevenukd.
