Feels Good!

Friday and very cool! How cool? Well, I have dropped the inside temperature almost 10 degrees just by opening the window and running the fans. Inside, it is now 70° compared to a 65° outside. I love it!

Yesterday, my comments regarding the weather and heat were somewhat insensitive. With almost 100 people in California now dead from the effects of the heat, it’s obviously not just a simple matter of lowering the thermostat if you feel a little hot. And of course my comments didn’t include the homeless who can’t even find a thermostat, let alone turn it down.

I was listening to a report on public opinion yesterday and apparently, Californians think we need to do something about “Global Warming”. Well, more than 2/3rds of them do…what I believe most don’t understand is that even if we were to start working on some magical solution today, it wouldn’t change anything for hundreds of years. Not that we shouldn’t start, you understand. Our great, great, great grandchildren will thank us.

World War III news: “A Somali lawmaker was fatally shot outside a mosque Friday, the latest blow to a virtually powerless administration that has watched helplessly as Islamic militants have taken over much of the country.”

Now is the time for everyone to go and get their world maps and find out where Somalia is located. This is the next frontline in the war.

And this…“President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair are teamed up against much of the world again, this time in their refusal to criticize Israel's offensive against Hezbollah guerrillas in southern Lebanon or to call for an immediate cease-fire in the Mideast fighting.”

Well, it’s not as if these two had a great track record.
