Fixed my truck this morning before it gots hot, so you're stuck with me till the sun goes down......I could take a nap, I guess. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I already took my nap.

Woke up at 8:30.. dilly dallied around.. until 12:30 or so on here then laid down for a snooze.. got back up showered... typed out a slew of emails and hit the BBS again.. then recieved a few emails from a buddy in Germany right now online. They cant access the BBS so I have to email them back and forth.

Went to the coast today, and so did everyone else. Weather was nice, not too hot, Sat in what is similar to Portland rush hour traffic, but at least I was in an air conditioned car.

JP,

head over to the track. The ALMS is in town this weekend. See how the big boy's play. Craig Watkins (SmartCamber founder) is running the "Flying Lizards" GT3RSR team with Overbeek and others.

Or..sit at home and watch it on TV in the air conditioned comfort of your own easy chair.

Gotta ya all beat. 110-115degrees in the Fiberglass factory very little air flow for 12 hours. It was 92 degrees outside with 100 percent humidity at 7PM. I would go outside on breaks just to cool off.

Had tickets for all 3 days of ALMS. Could only stand about 2 hours of walking the paddock Fri. and Sat. Managed to get an Audi Sport shirt autographed by JJ Lehto and Werner for my son-in-law who drives an S4. Stared at the Racer's Group and Flying Lizard operation until I decided that it was too damn hot. Predicted 85 degrees for race day tomorrow so I think my wife will finally join me for the final day.

Rained like a mo yesterday, and never made it past 62 or so today. VERY unusual for this time of year. Should only make upper 60's tomorrow, but we may get some sun.

Happy B-Day JP

124 in the shade, no breeze at 4pm. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I sure as hell don't remember Iraq being this hot 13 years ago... but it wasn't July then.

I've had almost 5 quarts of water today, so far.

Thank you, Bruce.

Whenever I start bitching and whining (to myself... never in front of the soldiers), I have to remember that I'm a volunteer. Sure, it sucks, but I raised my hand and took an oath... repeatedly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

I have no one to blame but myself. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Besides, there *are* worse places in the world to be in than Iraq, and I thank God I'm not in any of them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
