The AC is on

For those of you that thought summer was over, I guess you thought wrong.

And don't hand me any of that global warming crap. On September 21, 1985, it was 92 degrees and muggy as hell.

How do I know that? It was my wedding day and I was wearing a tuxedo and sweating profusely.

While I was sweating, my best man was walking up to everyone he could find, tugging on one of his cuff links and saying, "Bond. James Bond." with a Scottish accent.

It was a hell of a wedding.

Technically, today is the last day of my vacation. When I return to work on Monday, I will be in a week-long class at our Chicopee facility.

Kinda like a vacation....

Here are some links:

• Key phrase in this story: "No one [expletive] saw me steal anything!" (Check out her mug shot)



• I gotta admit, the headline kinda caught my attention...



• This is funny.
• 
  
• I won't be eating at the "Mad Fresh Bistro"...



• I guess you only get one packet.

Okay, I did a little work today,

But not much. I answered a few emails and sat in a teleconference with a vendor but other than that, I did nothing.

No sir, not a thing.

Well, maybe a few things.

I relaxed with The Dog for a while. Then I took a drive out through Hampden into Monson to check out a shooting range I might join and finally I went to Big Y to buy some Big E tickets.

Not a bad day for an old, fat guy on vacation.

Here are a few links:

• Key phrase in this story: "Lind is no longer employed there."



• You have got to love dogs.



• Only in Florida.

Yes, I am still enjoying my vacation

Thanks for asking.

Here is a brief public service announcement:

You might find this links entertaining or educational:

• WTF?



• Well someone needs to get into his head because apparently he's not in it...



• Here's a followup to yesterdays stolen ring story. I'm betting she's sifting as you read this.



• Pffftttt..... Rednecks....



• Only at Walmart.

Have I mentioned that I'm on vacation?

Taking a week off with nothing to do may sound like a waste of vacation but trust me, it's not.

You should try it sometime.

Here are some inks:

• Key phrase in this story: "...authorities were still waiting to recover the ring."



• Rule number one when flying: Behave yourself and don't be an ass.



• Only in Pennsylvania.

Finally a day with nothing to do

Well, actually I had a few things to do but I did manage to find some time to read the news and look for links.

*

Unfortunately, the news if filled with stories that lack any semblance of fun or interest. Let's face it, I'm hard pressed to make fun of ISIS because there is nothing fun about a bunch of a$$holes running around cutting peoples heads off or crucifying them.

I think I'll just stay away from those stories.

What say we go take a look at some of those links:

• Actually, this is damned good idea.



• Only in Florida.



• Who the hell wants to buy a skunk?



• Ever wonder why Washington state is constantly in the top ten in coffee consumption? Well wonder no longer.



• This sounds like my kind of project.



• Key phrase in this story: "sewer fishing is a catch-and-release sport only."
