Happy Vater's Day and other news...

Happy Father's Day to all you dad's everywhere. I hope your children bring you as much joy as mine...enjoy your children and they will enjoy you.

And now for a sensitive and smooth transition, other news.

JadedJ reporting out here on the plain Plains, where everyone except me is of Teutonic origin...i.e., fair skinned...white as a Limbaugh baby's ass.

The news is, the weather has been struggling to reach Summer temps for the last couple of weeks here. Last week it was barely in the 60s, and cool 60s at that. The past couple of days we've reached 85F or so, and still not really hot. But enough to put away the jackets and long pants.

And then...and then...tomorrow, the prediction is...99F for sure...and...possibly...up to 107F. Yes...from basically 60F to 107F in one week. It is to continue for the balance of the week!

In fact a heat wave warning has been issued by the authorities. Stay inside if possible. How cheering.

I heard people rumbling in the grocery store yesterday something about the Rapture and end times, when the weather becomes screwy...and if what I described above is not screwy, then Barbara Bush birthed some mighty fine leaders of men. Fact is, my grocery bill was more than double the predicted temps...and I'm not too sure I wouldn't welcome the Rapture, just to keep down my grocery bill (see, the joke is, one doesn't need food up there...see? And don't ask me about the streets paved with gold, and why would they be paved with gold if there were no grocery bills...just don't go there, OK?.)

Here is a photo of what we are expecting BEGINNING tomorrow, and for the rest of the week. A shot of Nebraska's State Capital, aka, the Penis of the Plains...as it melts into oblivion. Which, come to think of it...nah...I'm not going to say it...I gotta live here with these capital-loving, sunburned people.

You gotta click on it to actually see the melting.
