More HHH today...

Yep, more Hazy Hot and Humid today.
It's about 70 degrees out this morning, but the humidity makes it so sticky. There may be a break in the heat on Thursday (we hope).

Hey Bob, now you're making me feel bad man.... I've poked fun at Canadiens as long as Carrie's visited my blog (way over a year). It's all good-natured fun, and everyone knows it's all in fun.

Last night the sun was just setting, and it was cooling off a bit, and the wife and I took a nice ride in the Vette... perfect 'cruising' weather. Only a 30-40 minute ride, but it was great.

Oh, thanks michelle for reminding me... my back is about 98% better now, having gotten better slowly over the weekend.

Did I mention, a few weeks ago, my mother fell and cracked 3 ribs? Good grief... going to have to put her on training wheels! Doesn't stop her from going out with her girlfriends though.. she went to the movies yesterday to see Mr and Mrs Smith, and didn't like it (should have known, too much action for her). My mom's always been a tough ole bird. Whem my brother and I were kids, and were playing any kind of game outside and needed another player, she'd be right there (dad was always working). She's always been a cranky "my way or no way" kinda lady... but she's mom! *LOL* And she picks on my dad mercilessly! I think if those two didn't fight like cats and dogs, they'd die of boredom.

This is good, a market research firm took polls, and found the top 10 cars for men and women. Some are surprising:

Some headlines are just to die for...
Paris Hilton to shave her hoo-ha... wait... headline said she will give up "public" life. Nevermind

Astronomers discover "M-class planet." Star Trek nerds everywhere rejoice, hope for cat-women with three boobies

And that's it for today... enjoy your day....
