Re: Too Damn Hot!
It has been so hot here I have had to carry the little dog out to the grass. The deck burned my feet so know it wasn't pleasant for here. Im grounded until next weekend after some dental work.

Re: What stupid day is it today?
Happy Star Trek day. The first episode aired on Sep 8th 1966. I didn't see it until '68 because we didn't have a TV. It came on at 9 p.m. where I lived then, 30 minutes past Mom's imposed bedtime on a school night, so the only times I got to see it was when my parents were out for the night. It seemed so high-tech and futuristic back then, and much more realistic than Lost in Space, which seemed highly improbably at best.
Re: What are you reading?
Awesome book. Changiz is Iranian born, naturalized citizen of the U.S., possibly the most incredible Green Beret ever. This guy did more for our country than any 12 politicians I've ever heard of. I love the opening quote:
"The nation that makes a great distinction between its scholars and its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting done by fools" — Spartan king, quoted by Thucydides
Here's one from the book, page 82 concerning religion in politics:
"Who cared if you considered yourself a Sunni…and what was wrong with accepting Zarathustra, Jesus Christ, Muhammad, and others as prophets? Didn't they all preach about the sovereignty of one God and the values of honesty, charity, kindness, forgiveness, humility, and sacrifice?…I was a young man and far from a scholar, but even then it struck me that religion divided people more than it united them."
I love this guy.
Re: Whatcha smokin this morning?
My brother drove for a company that started him off in the winter with a lot of snowbound routes that the drivers with more seniority didn't want. He lost his shirt.
Re: Whatcha smokin tonight?
Hmm, been a few days. As I recall the first half was quite good, got a little boggy after that. You can see it starting to swell slightly in the picture, that worsened, but overall I'd smoke it again without hesitation.

I hope that they gave you a fixed or guaranteed not to exceed price. When I did Government Inspections they were one of the thorns in my side for Military moves. Good Luck with your delivery
