Doesn't it just figure?  Today is the first full day of Autumn, and we have an expected high of 80F.  Great for gardening, though.  I planted a few butterfly bushes this morning. 

The high humidity isn't so great.
How is today the first day of Autumn? :unsure:
Surely that was the 1st?

It's in the rules.  :contract:

I just received my e-mail invitation to the Detroit Historical Society preview of the museum's new exhibitions.  The e-mail was tilted "Your Invited!"  :bleeding:

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

That doesn't suprise me at all. Spelling is so atrocious.

I refute this 100% - most people I know treat the equinox's as the start and close of seasons. The others I haven't asked.
Most people I know just leave it till the shitty weather starts.

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Depends on the part of the state. Where I live, it is split between old school Browns fans, Bungals fans, Stillers fans, and when the Colts got good with manning, a bit of those people too.

It gets pretty ugly when you get east of Columbus.  The few Steelhead fans around here tend not to advertise the fact (except for one weekend out of the year) , for good reason :menace:

No idea. One of the IT jockeys said that if I want one , just ask. I asked.

Ah-- I had to go through the motions of signing up to host a "Windows 7 Party" to get my copy.  So on 10/10 I get my "signature" edition of Win7 Ultimate (one license each for 32- & 64-bit) and a bunch of stupid Win7 themed napkins, paper plates, etc. :lol:
