Actually, today was quite comfortable. We borrow an A/C unit from a neighbor this afternoon and didn’t even use it! After 105, 90s seems a little chilly! Guess it’s all relative. 🙂

It’s helped keep us very cool – it lowered our outdoor temperature from 105 to 79. Unfortunately – they’re probably sold out now.
Here’s a video that makes me sick to my stomach:
This Volvo is being destroyed per Obama’s “Cash For Clunkers” progrom. Not only are us taxpayers paying people to buy new cars, but we’re government is mandating that we destroy the value in the cars that we take off the road.
….
This car represents a lot: The people who designed it, the people who built it and the people that mined our earth to get the materials.
….
Is this what our life has become? We work half the year to pay for taxes so that big-government can play at social engineering as a sport?
I blame Bush.
