95, Feels Like 102

Whuff! I had to put in some time for the Commerce Department, so I headed out early to pound the pavement before things got too steamy.

Here, in the heat of midday, I am hunkered down in a dry, cool place (but not the place I store my rolled oats), checking up on news and correspondence after a couple of busy days. Funny how the wingnuts who made such a big deal about the snowy weather this past winter have been strangely reticent about the recent heat wave.

Anyway, here's hoping that you have a cool place in which to take refuge from the heat:





The best thing about that inspired bit of silliness is the adorable (though unflatteringly dressed) Jane Wiedlin. Seems like watching more Jane Wiedlin videos isn't a bad plan for the rest of this stiflingly hot afternoon.

Shameless Plug: My great and good friend Jim Keyes wrote a humorous tribute to the charming Ms. Wiedlin, so show him (and Jane) some L-U-V.

Note on the Shameless Plug: It's funny, listening to my friend's song, it's just as much a love song to the guitar as it is a "crush" song about Jane Wiedlin.
