I spent half of my day with my botanist. She is originally from Belgium. But curiously she has practically no discernable accent.

Was chatting at the neighborhood night out with a few peeps including a young gal that was working the summer for one of the very well off neighbors. Took me a bit to figure out she was from Sweden, more so the conversation than any accent, she had almost none.

We don't throw parties or anything...but I will be observing my 70th birthday crossing the Drake passage...helluva way to mark another decade.

Little known fact--KC was born prior to the death of the person for whom the passage is named.

People who sit in AC all day don’t understand those who are outside all day. Especially when it’s in the 90s.

I worked construction right next to Long Island Sound a few summers. Hot and super humid

I had an outside job in Emmet County for 3 years in the '80's and I'm pretty sure it never did go over 90 degrees.

Too slow!

1. Sorry--I work for a living.
2. Didn't see due to an ignore.
3. Doesn't change the facts.
