Post 557 TGIF, and another gorgeous weekend coming! It was said on our local tv station a few nights ago, that last year, we only had 6 days over 90 degrees. Now while this is abnormally low, this year, we've had 20 already! More than 3 times last year! Today may be the last one for a few days as a cold front is coming through in time to give us a great weekend. Oh, and I forgot to mention how my wife sprained her ankle on Wednesday night. Poor thing is hobbling around. I tried to tell her to take a day off of work and rest it... but noooooooooooooooo! No big plans for the weekend... just R&R I hope! My daughter got accepted at Walden College to continue on towards her Masters degree. It'll be a "distance learning" thing, basically meaning it'll be all internet based so she can do it at home. Sounds like a great thing. BUT... have you ever noticed, Doonsbury (the comic strip) always harps on Walden? *laughing* Oh well... on to the news: European Union cracking down on barmaids who show too much boobie. Officials claim they run the risk of skin cancer when they go outside to collect used beer glasses Fearing boredom during retirement, man builds treehouse with electricity, water, cable TV, rooftop patio, built-in cabinets, a wet bar and a 65-foot-long drawbridge connecting it to his home (w/pics) And here's a cat story, for Karen: Fiesty cat faces stand-off with alligator while cat's owner runs inside to call for help This is a good one: Taxachusetts airport bureaucrats try to pull the plug on Continental's free WiFi, say it's a threat to security, unlike the airport's own $7.95/day WiFi And now... My BOTD's! And One more... just 'cuz! Have a great weekend all! |
