We're going into a 3 day stretch of 90*+ and humidity. I hate the weather but it's good for business so bring it on. I need some disease and pestilence on the golf courses so that I can feed my kids

I hate to brag about the weather in Southern California, but right now at 11:20 a.m., it's 73 degrees and partly cloudy.

We're due to head up to the 90's this weekend, but at least the humidity is low.

I think the rocks are starting to melt out in my Stoneyard in Rockville. Business is dead except for a few real diehards. The thermometer on my car, which has the hood in the shade, is reading 105.
Whew, nasty

Marty, I'm looking all around, but I don't see you here. Which one of these offices are YOU in?

105-115 today with a billion percent humidity. It rained last night for all of about ten minutes, and then bamboo started growing in my yard. Its like Vietnam hot and sticky down here.
