Somewhat Out of the Ordinary

Here it is... just after 0900 hrs as we type... and we're workin' on our last cup after returning home from a re-supply mission out to Wally-World.  There are a couple o' few reasons we caught the early bus today, first and foremost among them is we went down early last evening.  More importantly, though, is the fact it's gonna be HOT today and we don't relish the thought of going shopping in the mid-afternoon heat.  Especially when it looks like this:

Which is better than yesterday's forecast, which predicted a high of 105.  Aiiieee!  I wilt in that sorta heat.  But... 103?  105?  Precious lil difference there.  Hot is hot...

And then there's this...

Vancouver residents awoke Thursday to the aftermath of the city's worst riot in decades, facing a massive cleanup and questions about how the mob fury came to be unleashed after the Canucks lost Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final to the Boston Bruins.

City crews and glass repair companies were still working to repair the smashed windows of about a dozen businesses targeted by rioters and looters in the downtown core as the sun rose over the city early Thursday morning.

That's just a gotdamned shame.  There's much more at the link.
