94 it was today. As Poohbear_nc knows, the deck is always hotter, but I didn't stay out long enough to check the deck temp. It's now midnight. I'm going out in a few minutes and pour the next section of concrete for the walk. I'll be buggered if I'm doing it in the heat of the day.

This nutty weather is going on all over the world. And geologic tragedies everywhere too. We need to take some sort of positive action.

I think it's high time we did something to appease Mother Nature. I'd suggest sacrificing a virgin but I don't think there are any any more. Any one else have any suggestions?

well my dog is a virgin, but she isn't being offered.

I think we need to accept that this is part of the cyclical nature of the planet and learn to live with it

My meteorology professor in college theorized in one of his books that the Renaissance occured during an unusually warm trend in Europe. So even if we're roasting, perhaps we'll get some good books out of the deal??

What if we made a large group sacrifice of all persons wearing pink (yech!). That would at least look like we were trying to sacrifice virgins. And it would clean up our visual space some, too.

I've posted before wondering where our poets are? Where is the voice of the digital age? So perhaps it is some sweaty kid who has never known a US at peace, kicking around a dusty yard, in fear of being kidnapped, with wild wind blowing his hair. Could that be the incubator of genius?

I'd think perhaps that'd be possible. Though he might be more terrified of expressing himself in verse due to the disparate bullying that artistic kids, any kid perceived as different in fact, being so much worse than its ever been.

He has to grow up and go to war, develop a drug and drinking problem, then hang out with a group of other likeminded disenchanted artists and poets, while developing a deep competitive rivalry with them.

How about sacrificing all those meteorologists who keep getting the forecast wrong - but never get fired? Think of all that hair gel/hair spray igniting!

Yeah. Our meteorologists keep giving accurate forecasts that I don't like and that's just wrong! Let's sacrifice them all. Then maybe it will finally rain?
