Who loves comic book art?
Have a good day, all.

Good morning. At some point today some guys from the tree service will be showing up with chain saws to remove an old bay laurel, a grapefruit tree and a pecan tree. They'll also trim another pecan and another grapefruit and engage in sundry other activities. I don't know when any of this will occur. They give you estimated arrival times but those are entirely fictitious. So all my plans for the day are contingent on when the chain saws start up. It can't be before 6:00 AM because that would be illegal. So I may participate in my weekly Zoom breakfast, etc. Or not.
We're looking at very hot weather with highs of around 110 for the next week. The mornings will be fine but the afternoons will be bad. But some of you are breathing smoke.

Had a wonderful practice last night with Mike and Paul for a 3 hour gig tomorrow. Great fun to play with these guys. They flesh out the songs I do so nicely. I think they have fun too.  |

Cloudy hazy smoky. Yesterday I went out thinking the smoke was lighter than on Tuesday, then I worked outdoors and my eyes started stinging and nose started running. Not badly but noticeably. Outside vs inside doesn't matter much 'cuz we don't have central air and most windows are open.
Preparing for several days of granddaughters and extended family events.

Comic book and art don’t belong in the same sentence unless separated by the word isn’t.
More smoke & haze. Another air quality alert. Things have not changed a lot.

Good morning.

Right to the shop this morning. Got some cleaning up to do before Tyler gets here to help me with other things.

Marshall & the Deputies? Reminds me of my first band. Our drummer was Scott and we practiced at his place. Scott's mom was a bored, alcoholic housewife and decided for us that the bands name was Scottie and the Tissues. We all quit right away. |

Up and coffee. Gonna be warm today. We have some friends heading over who we will take wine and olive oil tasting at Durant. Should be fun.
In sciencey news, NPR reported the discovery of gravitational waves made by black holes predicted by Einstein in 1916. So surfs up in the universe.

And if LJ says he heard us he is lying, we only had two rehearsals before we all quit and left "Scottie" to figure out why. |

Morning!
I'm basically a dog guy, but it is cozy and comforting to have a cat in the house.

News read and coffee consumed. Time to go forth and dispense justice.

Still hot in Tucson and so it will remain for the next few months. Humidity is creeping up. Cicadas are out in force. But no rain in the 7 day forecast.
Mr. H and I plan to go out for Korean food this evening. The place is not far from us, but we haven't been there in 5 months. Maybe it's because they don't always have wine. Maybe it's because we've been trying a lot of different restaurants.

They kept playing Hang on Sloopy over & over. It caused a biker riot and the bar was destroyed. Do you remember that gig, Marty? You took several beer bottles to the head so you might not. |

I’m about to venture into the city to see a Cubs game. My Financial Planner company rented one of the rooftops across Waveland Ave. weather is dicey. My goodness is life expensive these days. I used SpotHero App and bought a parking space in somebody’s garage a block from the ballpark. Cost $85. But the game and buffet are free so it should work out nicely, if the weather holds.

And no doubt you'll be headed back downtown Sunday for the Grant Park NASCAR street race, rite??  |
