Good Morning Everyone :)

Weather is nice here. All the storm stuff is affecting the Keys and our other coast. Yesterday was the first day that it didn't rain which made for a hot and humid but dry day. But if it does change you all are welcome to come over to my place and help me put up storm shutters. |jester|

I'm packed and all ready for that 15 minute drive to the Diplomat.

Well we made it to the hotel :) Weather is just hot as hell LOL

[Useless]

It just started to downpour (again) here in lovely upstate NY. Ah, I love this tropical environment.

[Cleo]

Yes it is unfuckingbelievable fucking nasty hot today. Heat index is 104F. :(

I just finished picking up the last of the supplies for needy people. Anyone else need coffee creamer, shampoo, some nasty alcoholic beverage, their feet rubbed…

At least the A/C in my car is working properly. One of the joys of having a Vette with GM computer engineering is the once in awhile it will decide that it really isn't hot inside it at all so it blows cool, but not cold, air mostly out of the floor vents and just enough on the windshield to fog it up. So I end up with cool feet and a hot head. It does this for a few hours about once a month for about one day and then starts working perfect again. Dealer replaced just about ever piece of it so I guess this feature is engineered in and this is how it is suppose to work. It did this yesterday when I had to pick someone up at the airport. I guess this was its way of greeting someone to Florida. Just one of the value added perks of GM cars.

Really sad thing is I'll probably buy another one.

Guess owning a Vette is kind of like owning Windows, you know deep down it really sucks but you like it just enough to buy another one.

Maybe I need to drink more Red Bull. |potleaf|
