    Remember the old saying IF IT PLAYS IN PEORIA IT WILL PLAY ANYWHERE. So I'm gonna play in Peoria. Actually slightly south of there.

    I didn't know if you knew that or not. I was going to mention that. I was in the ad biz for 30 years....Peoria was considered to be the perfect test site for new products. Thought to be a perfect example of mid America. So.....people like YOU were responsible for bringing us all those products we didn't want!:rofl2:

    Peoria, Illinois, not Peoria, Arizona, was known for many things. Not all good. It was also the Hooker capitol for a long time in the 50-60's. I have to take other's word for that. I was just a kid. Even several cars, farm equipment and a washing machine were made in Peoria. Yes, those big yeller worms too. I was across and down stream a piece.

    Youze guys are gonna have to teach me to text. I only know how to dial and talk on our cell phones. Can't even figure how to answer or check messages. I'm still used to those old wooden wall phones.

    We were at 95 for a high today here in beautiful Coweta County, GA. I spent an hour this morning in the attic working on assembling my new mac daddy TV antenna until I realized I was getting all wobblety and was soaked in sweat and came down. Will have to finish up on another early AM up there. Then like I think 1tireman said, "If its free, its for me!", I'll be getting TV again without paying the ridiculous cable charges! (y)

    This is really unusual for Wisconsin. We have beautiful Summers with nice nights and nice days. We usually get one or maybe two weeks of heat that creeps into the 90's but that's it. This really IS a heat wave. And it has lasted WAY beyond my patience!

    For me there hasn't been a winter since the two feet that fell overnight on Joplin back in 2011. The weather was pretty nice til the latter parts of May. From then on til around November it never got below the 90 degree and got as hot as 112 with the humidity and lack of a breeze making it that much more unbearable. The most snow we saw was about an inch and a half and it was fgone by the next morning. I loathe heat with a furious passion. So does Zoe. We love it around 50 - 60 degrees with 70s being hot... Many times have I thought back to that two feet of snow with a smile. My dad once told me something that his dad told him.

    • If it's hot man wants it cold. If it's cold man wants it hot. Whatever it is, man wants it not.

    Basically I make a great effort to try to know what I want and deal with the rest. It's a pain in the @$$. But autumn isn't too far away and I am looking forward to what should be my first real winter since 1990.
