I certainly agree with you there, but I'm 6'-5" and weigh 300 lbs. Need to do something to shed the weight. Hey, maybe I should start eating all my meals at the diner! No calories at all, right?

But the steak tonight was absolutely fantastic. Nice and tender.

If this rain keeps up, we all might be playing in the mud pretty soon[swg]

Rumbling outside for the third time in 24 hours, I don't think we have to worry too much about the drought anymore. Got to 85 today, still thick outside, though. Stayed inside as much as I could today.

Pass the A-1, please[dinner]

Randy

[locomutt]

Yeah,some of us are still around,albeit just being quite;it takes too much
energy to move around,and it is too hot to expend that energy.

We had a structure fire Thursday night (or did I say that?). My bunker gear was soaked on the inside, and I only briefly handled a hose. We went through two or three cases of water and at least a case of Gatorade. And the fire was at 10:30 at night...

We really got a pretty good save on the structure - a mobile home. The fire started in an addition on the back and got into the attic, but the bulk of the building was OK. Another couple of hours later and we would have been wetting down the embers.

You guys must be GOOD !!! I've never heard of a mobile home fire that didn't result in a total loss. I just didn't think it was possable.[;)]

Rather have spagetti than steak?[:O] Surely you jest. Hope you have pleanty of Bullseye.

[cherokee woman]

QM, sounds like your weather in Muncie is just like ours here in Louisville.

Mookie, glad to see you made it in. KNEW I'd find you curled up in
the hammock!!

Think supper menu tonight will be steak (grilled on a George Forman grill
for the kitchen, rather than outside), with salad. There's also some spaghetti
and meatballs w/Texas garlic toast for anyone who would rather have that,
than steak.

[Modelcar]

....For some reason we didn't get the extreme weather they had predicted for us yesterday...Only got to 90 which is about the norm here this last month but today, bingo....Jackpot....It's 98 now at 2 pm, so it has arrived for today. Humidity to match it and almost no breeze.

Been there. Will withhold more graphic descriptions....

[Mookie]

^~^ - yessss...... I am here and I finished 'Arry off out in the hammock this morning!

Then had to take a long nap!

I love the Potter books - they are an easy read - for both young and old! And just like Bewitched didn't promote witchcraft, I don't think HP does either!

Confined to house all weekend - way too hot -

Tried to trainwatch at 6 am Sat morning - only went to 9 am - then said said enuf!

Lots of things on Paul Harvey today - it is so hot the birds are using potholders to pull the worms out of the earth....

Paris Hilton took her car to a professional detailer - they wouldn't touch it. Too big a mess!

And with all the the storms in Texas - the people from Mexico are fleeing - back to Mexico (this is for Houston Ed!)

We had some noise and some light at 4 am - didn't do much except make noise and provide light.

And for Tree - we had two bad house fires here in the city over the weekend - no one injured but it sounded pretty tough for the firemen. Only 104. And the causes were most likely improper disposal of smoking material. Duh!

Gotta go check out the food - lunch and a nap again! (see this is just like Harry Potter; you have to suspend all thoughts of reality!)

Mookie

[cherokee woman]

Lunch is served, folks. Hmmm, wonder if Mookie is out in the shade, curled
up in the hammock. Guess I'd better go check and take her some nice, cold
ice water.

I've also got some herbal peppermint tea brewing in the fridge.

[rvos1979]

Hmmm..... A bit dead in here.... oh well.

Last night's poker tournament was a bit warm, due to the bar's A/C units not working correctly. Everything started to stick together-cards, chips, etc.

With the help of some rain, it cooled down to a balmy 70 degrees, forcast for Madison says around 90 with storms all day and night.

Be in later to stay cool, hopefully.

730 am and 80 degrees this morning.mowed the weeds down.my socks and shirt are now ready for an epa containment unit.plenty of juice available.

[cherokee woman]

Good morning, everyone. Guess we're all in for more hot days: it is summer,
after all.

Breakfast this morning: bacon, eggs, sausage and biscuits and gravy.

Lunch today will be sandwiches of the cold cut variety, with lettuce and
tomatoes.

Still thinking on the supper menu.

Mookie, hope you had a restful weekend, and did you finish your Arry Potter
book? We've not read any of them. Are they good reading?

Think he's gonna say that anyhow if he sees the other thread you've been recently on ... a couple of those yutzes have clearly been out in the sun too long! They can no longer see past the ends of their little red noses...[:D]

9:30 pm here in the beautiful 1000 Islands, and it's 72 degrees. Aside from a random sprinkle, we're getting weather that is what summer should be all about.

On the other hand, I got soaked running the waterball tournament for a neighboring fire department on Friday night. For those who have never seen/heard of waterball, our version involves pushing a tetherball suspended below a 100 (between the stops) wire. Two teams of 3-5 firefighters use straight tip nozzles to (hopefully) pu***he ball down the wire. It can get interesting. I was doing fine in just my fire coat and helmet until a little rain cell came through and changed the wind direction to "soak the official." And I got soaked. Felt good, though. I think my boots are almost dry.

We got the 3 H treatment a couple of weeks ago (and are as likely as not to get it again), but we're thankful for some rain (do have to mow the lawn again, though) and milder temps.

Junction - We try not to burn fire stations down, but it does happen, and for many of the same reasons houses burn. It would be nice if every fire station was of fire-resistive construction and sprinklered, but it just ain't so. On top of that, we have a lot of stuff in them that will burn, and all too often, fire apparatus that should have been retired years ago, with their accompanying electrical problems. At today's prices for apparatus and structures, that was probably almost a million dollar fire.

Well I certainly had a real interesting day today. I played my bouble hearder softball game and my team "Sandbaggers" won both games but, it was heck outside today espeaciy the feilds that we played at, the ground is un even and hard like rock almost. The feilds are in Norristown, PA (any one who is familiar with the greater Philly area will know that Norristown isn't the best place in the county.) It was also very hott outside today and I personally have accomplished the goal today of drinking 2 gals of water in about five hours. Anyway, because we won the two games we're going to the playoffs which start two weeks from now. I so far have had a prefict season of never striking out. Today I hit two home runs in the second game. I also got a nice lovey throw of the ball in my face today by my pitcher. (I'm the catcher for the team). Suprisingly, it didn't hurt too much but I had and still have a brused lip. I also injured myself sliding into first and runing hard into third I fell rolling on the hard ground and sliped. But, I'm ok now, however my right arm is very tired from throwing back to the pitcher two games in a row.

Other than my game I didn't really do too much this weekend. I need to get out more huh?/

Willy,

Any game that Cincinnatti wins is a good game in my book,although as Joe
said,they seem to have a real problem with that 'other' red hatted team.

Larry,if you are around today,could use a little extra help with the grill.[;)]

Sorry I haven't been in lately. With a bona fide slow day predicted at work Friday, I took the day off, planning on taking care of a little business and getting in some sailing on the ol' sailfish. Everything was going good until I got about a half mile out in a nice breeze (not too fast, not too slow, waves tolerable) and the base anchor of the mast decided to cut loose, leaving me with a half mile paddle with a mast all out of kilter. At least the boat didn't sink.

So, I've been working on repairs most of the weekend, plus running a water ball tournament on Friday night and preps for and participation in a parade today. Getting caught up on some housework tonight - filled the dishpan with really hot water and catching up on-line while it cools to where I can work in it.

Will see if I can be a little more available this week.

[railfan619]

Hey everybody it's 7:55pm on sunday and the temp is still 94F but the good thing is it going down to around 75f tomorrow and I think the hot days are over with for now. But we still have 1 month of summer before the cold weather returns to wisconsin.
