Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

We're in the middle of a severe heat warning right now.  I've never heard of a severe heat warning before.

And it's a perfect +15 in Whitehorse today.  I just checked.   :(

Spent a few hours today checking on old people for my wife's church. Hell is a old person's home filled with box fans and sitting on their plastic covered couch while Gunsmoke plays at high volume on their ancient 1979 Zenith wood cabinet TV.

The level of irrigation is crazy in this country, the river needs about 2cm of rain a day to keep steady at this time of year.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: I see.

This is bullshit.

It downpoured a little while ago,  now it looks like a really bad Vietnam movie.  All steamy and stupid and shit.

This is bullshit.

It's mid July and I'm having to keep the windows closed to keep out the cold.  :bowler:

QuoteThe hottest day of Toronto's ongoing heat wave was already breaking records Thursday morning, as an imposing heat dome forced morning temperatures to their highest mark in more than 170 years.

It is goddam hot.  :(

I don't think even Vietnam got this hot. 

Thankfully I figured out how to charge the refrigerant in my car yesterday.  My AC had been getting flaky & finally stopped.  I got the stuff with stop-leak & I have an extra can at the ready in case I have to do it again...
