...so I am glad I did not explain my morning tardiness as being due to having to pick bits of boy scout out of the chimney.

I still like that excuse.

I've been worrying about you folks in the heartlands with all the storms and floods. Eeek!

I'm beginning to think mother nature hates us humans...or is taking out her menopausal hormones out on us. What with Asian cyclones and massive earthquakes, record number of tornadoes and floods...oh, and wildfires let's not forget that. Is there another planet we can live on?

Oh, and hey, it's hurricane season down here. Always a load of laughs.
