Howdy Doody

This scary little guy was hanging around on stage near the bass drum. Unfortunately, there was too much movement for me to adequately capture him, but I think you get the feeling!

You Tube...

is really pissing me off. I tried in vain for over an hour to upload a video in preparartion for later today and my Day in The Life post. After being told to "Wait patiently. This may take time." and watching the progress bar remain immobile, I finally gave up and logged out of the site.

I know they've experienced a popularity explosion and their servers may be huffing and puffing, but put a status notice or something for crying out loud. Apprise your member of what's going on and even suggest that return later if you're doing upgrades.

Woo hoo!

We have cloud cover, cooler temps and a nice breeze today. We're running the fans instead of the A/C, which might help the sticker shock we'll soon receive. Oh, did I mention that the electric bill post-A/C totaled $280? According to Boo it could be worse, I don't see it but then, does it really matter? The bill must be paid regardless.

So now I'm seeing more people out and about and we're getting ready to run errands. I hope this weather lasts because for the first time in California's history we have approximately 100 heat related deaths and of course, many victims were the elderly. I am not hoping to repeat the weather of the past two weeks.
