....Well, it's just "hot" outside: 92, but....the humidity must be extremely high because it feels like being in an oven. Did see a 74 figure for humidity this morning, but can't say what it is now.
Talk of those Asian foods.....Wow.....That would make me run...."away", as fast as I could.
Anyone know what Kimshee is ? {spelling?}. Most awful stuff I can remember smelling......In Asia.

Kimchi and Haggis are both on my list of foods I probably won't try in this lifetime. They are right below asparagus.

Mudchicken, I knew you would be in trouble when you mentioned "sesame cat."
Hot here, in the upper nineties (we have had two days in the past week over one hundred). Low relative humidity, but it is still hot outside. Thundershowers here and there, but none right here. Our street is to have a new coat of slurry seal put on tomorrow, so I parked the car around the corner, hoping for a free carwash--but only clouds that are stingy.
Here and there, showers have put some fires out (some were started by fireworks; Saturday is the big day for celebration in Utah, as Brigham Young brought the main body into the valley on 7-24-1847.

Great stuff...I like Korean food......Nice and spicy!
Good Thursday morning, everyone. We currently have a temp of 78 degrees, going to be another 3H day here, with a heat index of right around 100. Will have plenty of cold beverages on hand, to keep everyone hydrated: water, vitamin water, Gatorade (just got a fresh load in yesterday), iced teas, lemonade, fruit punch, grape-aid, orange-aid, etc.
Coffee is ready, and other morning beverages, including juices, are fresh and ready to go. On the warmer/serving station this morning: bagels, bear claws, a nice selection of fruits, turkey bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, fresh sliced tomatoes (red, yellow and pink)
Wonder who will be in next this morning. Whomever it is, they get to select the menu for the rest of the day.
Everyone have a good morning, and I'll see you after a bit.
oops....
94 with about that much humidity for today so - watermelon and choc cake! I'm set!
Mookie watermelon and choc cake! I'm set!
Got my two days to recover, now back to work. Get to play with the Air Force now.(heard mooks was next door in Nebrasky? Too close to their chocolate cake?)
good morning

I thought I would share one of our local weather forecasts for today:
Ricki is getting accustomed to riding up and down between our living room level and our bedroom level.
The new coat of slurry seal is now on our street. The street is still closed to traffic. I trust that when I come back from seeing a doctor late this afternoon I will be able to drive onit.
Mookie oops.... 94 with about that much humidity for today so - watermelon and choc cake! I'm set!
Ding, Ding, Ding! We have a winner!! Mookie, you've got it. Went out this morning, and got a whole bunch of watermelons, came back and put them all on ice!! Just got the chocolate cake out of the oven (thank you, Dan, for that new stove and the humongous oven, where I can bake a whole sheet cake. )
And for anyone who doesn't want to just eat watermelon and chocolate cake, we also have grilled sirloin steaks w/grilled 'baked' taters and a nice, cold garden salad.
Everyone enjoy, have a good afternoon, and I'll see you all after a bit. Need to go rest my back, now.

Thanks Murray, now we know how to spell it....At least I'm no where near it.
.......Wow, business in here is really slack...!
Only thing I can add: It's still high with humidity here, and the .75" of rain this afternoon didn't help that situation any. Very warm yet, but nice and bright outside.
We got a rain shower in Deshler today.The bulk of the storm went north of us.It is over Bellevue ohio now.We have a heat advisory for tomorrow.We have had a busy day today.Csx sent its inspection car on the toledo sub.Cw thanks for supper.

My sweet Driver took me trackside for 3 coal trains (just about all at the same time). We left the air running - you all will find out why about tomorrow or Sat. Gah!
Anyway, I have to go down there tomorrow and scoop some ballast under the #6 track - one of the two south bounds. They didn't look like they had any under a section of track right in front of us. Really squished! Did look like a fun ride, however....whee!
Good Friday morning, everyone. It is going to be another very hot and miserable day for most of the country. We are currently at 83 degrees, going for a very uncomfortable 98 degrees, with a heat index of about 105 degrees.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. Regular breakfast is on the warmer/serving station.
I am going back to my GP this morning. For the past couple of weeks, I've been experiencing some pain in the left side of my neck. Going to try to find out what is going on. Tired of slooowly moving my neck to the left.
Everyone have a good morning, keep as cool as possible, and take care. See you all sometime later this afternoon. Could one of you start the Fish Fry for lunch for me? Thank you!
CW - if he doesn't find anything or can't offer a solution, try changing your pillow.
already 80 degrees here in nw ohio.going to be a very muggy day.Going to be working inside today.Cw I made some lunchmeat sandwhiches for lunch today.We have plenty of water,lemonade and gatorade available.keep cool.
The blue frost gatorade has started to tinge this chicken's feathers from dirty/brown/nondescript to an odd shade of blue. I think the Weatherliar U. weather machine got stuck on blowdrier after Willie let the incoming freshmen touch it. (clouds up every afternoon, makes lotsa noise and nothing happens)
Back to the roar of F16's on the local airbase today, flipping manhole covers and fishing for Brown Trout (PDN probably doesn't miss this).
Is DiningCar here in Colorado this week with the other Santa Fe fans?

Mudchicken, there are other Gatorade flavors you could try for awhile. Keep a variety of different Gatorade flavors on hand.
Didn't really find out anything at the doctor's. He gave me a prescription for different muscle relaxers, and I have already had one, about a half hour, 45 minutes ago.
I have our Friday Fish Fry (actually, fish grill tonight), going and the first round is on the warmer/serving station, along with all the regular side dishes.
Dessert: Apple, blueberry, cherry, peach and strawberry cobblers, and pecan pie, all served with ice cream!!!!
Think our official high for today is/was 95, but with the heat index, it certainly does feel like it's at least 100 degrees, if not more out. Definitely glad to be back home , and in the air conditioning!!
Now I know what a blast furnace feels like......
109 on the mirror here in Troy, IL, just 18 miles from St Louis, so it is about 99 ambient. Truck A/C is running full bore, both units, and keeping up fine. Heard a report in Milwaukee last night of them getting 7 inches of rain in an hour, opened up a big sinkhole near downtown. Might have to go that way tomorrow....
Fish fry, please, then bed, then go switch a bunch of trailers tomorrow......

They could probably use a load of gravel or two. Up this way, the EAA folks are buying up every woodchip they can from all the landscaping places. There's thousands of airplane-campers and vehicle-campers coming to town next week...all heading for wet, mucky grass.

Well - the truck is inspected, the bike is ready for the 5K fun run tomorrow (I'll be riding, the participants will be walking and/or running), and the laundry from working on the railroad the past couple of days is about done. Time to call my sister and find out what she wants.

Whooooeeeee! Tornado warning for NYC. The Weather Channel is going berserk! They don't get this excited about a Force 5 hurricane!
Just got off the phone with my sister - they've found that my mother (84 this year) has colon cancer. We're waiting for word as to what's going on - she may have gone under the knife this afternoon (Phoenix time). At this point we're not making "flying trips" out there (this sister is in Denver, my other sister lives in Phoenix and is our POC for "mom" stuff like this) until we get an idea of what's going on.
Hope for the best.
