HEAT WAVE

ITS FRAKKING HOT


Friday was 106°f (41°c) at my son's house. Saturday was a Xerox copy. Today it should cool down to 100°f (38°c). The entire State is burning up figuratively and literally. So I went off to the "daughter's" place and spent the day and evening. Spent some time in the pool at her complex, and the hot tub. Watched the video "Cloverfield", which greatly exceeded my expectations. Had a wonderful day.

But back at the news wheel, the grind continues with little of new(s) interest. Just a rehash of political posturing by both camps in the run-up to their respective conventions. The floods along the upper Mississippi seem to be settling down and should pass into the Gulf with little ado. No major tropical storms around the globe. Overall, a very boring weekend.

The new FF-3 has achieved 14,000,000+ downloads as of Friday. I hope to see a lot more of them showing up on my trackers. This blog drops the sidebar all the way to the bottom of the page when viewed using IE. I am working on a change that may fix that and give the blog a really different look. If all pans out, you'll be the first to know. No timeline for that though.

With nothing else to do, some researcher has determined the formula for the "perfect" cheese sandwich.

One eye. Three legs. No hair. The Sonoma-Marin (CA) County Fair has named the Ugliest dog in the World:


The scoring system used in gymnastics has been changed. There will no longer be a "perfect-10". Now the goal is 17.

Thanks for stopping over. I'll try my darnedest to find something more interesting than this post was. Check back later to see how I've done.
