Anyone else tired of this crappy weather all summer? after the knee surgery, i was looking forward to sitting out in the gazebo in the evening but if you have to wear sweats & a sweatshirt, it kind of defeats the purpose of summer evenings. i can't even light the tiki torches because the high winds blow them out in about 5 minutes. wah-wah for me.

incredibly, convicted felon and former governor GEORGE RYAN says he feels  "no responsibility" for the tragic deaths of the six WILLIS children in 1994, despite the fact that the truck driver who hit them obtained  his license with bribes at the secretary of state's office. 

ryan also shut down the subsequent investigation into bogus licensing and that fact came out during his trial, in which he was convicted of racketeering and fraud and sentenced to eight years. FYI--if you watch AMERICA'S GOT TALENT, the group known as THE WILLIS CLAN are the grandchildren of the surviving parents in that fiery crash.

see where AMAZON is requesting permision from the FAA to use a drone to deliver packages in less than 30 minutes? you gotta believe it will be a thief's dream when they watch the drone drop a package on a doorstep.

hey, what's your favorite airline? in the recently released 'on time' performances, most familiar names didn't do too well.  UNITED was 10th, (of 14) AMERICAN was 9th, and SOUTHWEST was 12th.  the three best? HAWAIIAN AIRLINES was #1 and ALASKA AIRLINES was 2nd with our old buddy DELTA 3rd. choose wisely.

your daughter getting ready for college? well, check with the DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION to check the school's security record of investigating sexual assaults.  the sad fact is that 40% of all colleges don't investigate at all. again, choose wisely.

big smile on my face when JUSTIN BIEBER pled guilty and was placed on probation and ordered to pay his neighbor $80,000 for damages to his house. big deal you say? well, the little prick is NOT a citizen and subject to deportation to canada as soon as his dossier calls for it. he still has a drag racing charge pending along with a minor drug charge.
it's coming.

whaddya think about $13 an hour as a minimum wage? i'm not sure what the perfect answer is but people can't live on eight bucks an hour.

all done. later
