It's over ninety frickin' degrees.
It's not autumn.
In personal news, last night my uncle got arrested for breaking... ummm... I think all the laws at the same time. Don't ask.
And this morning I had a good time reading a letter to the editor in our local paper. The abbreviated version is this:
"I read with pleasure the article about used car dealers on Franklin Ave... However, I was disappointed to not see any mention of my late grandfather, _________. His used car dealership was at ____ and Franklin. He passed away in 1979... I was only 2 years old... Grandpa..., I know you’re up there in heaven wheeling and dealing those used cars."
Why do I doubt that "wheeling and dealing those used cars" is among the activities of heaven? Is that really something that needs to be pointed out?

Maybe ol' grampa is wheeling and dealing those used harps and angel wings, eh?

I didn't think it was possible to break all the laws at once. One time i broke 3/4ths of them but didn't get caught...so it doesn't count.
How does one break all the laws at once? I'm only asking for...um...research on a new book i'm writing...yeah...that's it

If he's a used car salesman, my guess is he didn't quite make it to heaven.

Yes, but it's worse to live somewhere where it is always cold and never gets warm. Just think about that for awhile.
