Still not the thing for me. I did get to lvl10 in Ingress the other day, though. Right now the nearest portal is more than 20km away (as the grouse flies), so no playing the next few days.

I may make a run to l12 this weekend. I'm fairly close and can do it if I hit up a larger city around here.

"Yep, I see it too....looks like a pepperoni pizza tonight!"

"Don't rush me, I'm heading that way."

By the time they got there another one had grabbed all the pizza and run under the gate with it...leaving only a bowl of dry dog food.

And yes...mama won that fight and it was decisive!

It's more fun shooting raccoons than that Pokermon thingy.....

I only stayed out there a few minutes tonight ...at 10pm it was 90F and 85% humidity....a killer night!

Rupert, you should get that massage chair I have. I've slept really good after using it each night for 30 minutes.

So where did you get it? I am interested! I hurt all over..all the time. I might just get in that chair and never get out again?

BTW- For the past two weeks I have remained Unconventional....and it has been wonderful! While Mrs Rupert has been very conventional, and tossed and turned every night, I have slept like a baby........

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CJQJYYA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 is the one I got.

Thanks! Maybe Mrs Rupert will let me get one for her birthday which is very soon! All I need is one of her her CCs, that should be easy enough?

Is it pretty good on the feet?

Regards!

That sounds horrid weather. I do not envy you that.

I wouldn't wish it on anyone, it is so miserable when it is like that.

Birds aren't singing...they are "wings out" and gasping for breath.

88°F here today with a heat index of 98°
Last week it was 98° with a HI of 112°
It was a tad warmer back in 2012 when I fried an egg on my deck.

It is awesome on the feet, though it doesn't get my toes, but then I do have size 12 feet.

I sure want one....hear that Mrs Rupert?

I sent out some microwave popcorn today...said it had to be shipped in dry ice to keep it from popping in transit. I hope the place I sent it to is still in business...every time I call I only get a recording telling me they aren't there.....seems they are never there?

You can't leave a message....it's a one way street ...you can hear them but they can't hear you.

Hey Rupert, maybe you could put a trailer behind your TT and pull Otis and crew around to cool them off on your way to Aldi.
