I need a tetanus shot after listening to it.

The archbishop of Rouen, leading Tuesday’s solemn funeral Mass for an elderly priest slain a week ago by two extremists, said the Rev. Jacques Hamel tried to push away his attackers with his feet, saying “go away, Satan,” remarks that underscored the horror of the murder at the altar that touched a chord throughout France.
It’s 68 in Edmonton.

Yup, today is one day closer to the first cool front. Gotta think that way in the dead of summer here or you will not stay sane.
And it’s 89 on the front porch.
We never take chances. Only go to Don Jose if we’re close to home, or to Tia Maria if we’re willing to drive several miles.
Oh, and Hubs has been known to get the enchiladas they make at Luby’s. I’ve never had them, cuz I’m there for the home-style veggies.

‘Bout that 80/20 ground beef… If the 80% is beef, what’s the other 20%? Wait, do I want to know???

Now I’m gonna have to stop by the taqueria on the way home to get the real deal. I was genuinely surprised at the number… Read more »

“FLOATING HEAD HALL OF FAME”
Aw man I forgot about FB, I figured I was safe from any BHH pics. 😀
I’ve been troubleshooting a water filter transfer pump problem and operating the system manually since 8:30. Repeatedly climbing ladders to look inside the filters. It’s only about 105 out here.
Since its your birthday, why don’t you just bring me a couple of 5hp centrifugal pumps/motors and install them for me?
Got plenty water.
No, but I am a nighttime teeth grinder. I have to wear dental guards to prevent further damage.

Why thank you MHarper, that’s the sweetest thing you coulda done! 😀
I guess all of us here make the event, right? Started off with birthday greetings and went from there. 🙂
Over 100 comments on a Wednesday is some kind of record here for a relatively uneventful day.
Hearing Miranda Lambert do Willin made me homesick
In honor of Tim’s birthday, I proclaim this HIS HUNERD.

There are a couple of good things about summer.
