I developed a detailed thread topic called "Summer in January", complete with pictures of beautiful people in bathing suits, satellite photos of snow cover in the northern hemisphere, and a fascinating story about 85 inch snow drifts in Denver.
But you're not getting that thread because my computer decided to crash. Instead, you're getting a bare bones, low budget thread held together with duck tape and a prayer.

Can I be post something silly?
A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool, he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"
The man thought a moment, then replied, "A martini, please".
The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man had ever had. The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"
The man answered, "Oh, about 164." The robot then proceeded to discuss the theory of relativity, inter-stellar space travel, the latest medical breakthroughs, etc. . .
The man was most impressed. He left the bar, but thought he would try different tactic. He returned and took a seat. Again, the robot clicked and asked what he would have. A martini, please."
Again it was superb. The robot again asked, "What is your IQ, sir?" This time the man answered, "Oh, about 100". So the robot started discussing NASCAR racing, bass fishing and what to expect the Colts to do nest weekend.
The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool . . Again a martini, and the qustion "What is your IQ?"
This time the man drawled out "Uh . . . 'bout 50."
The robot clicked, then leaned close and very slowly asked, "A-r-e y-o-u-r p-e-o-p-l-e r-e-a-l-l-y
g-o-i-n-g t-o n-o-m-i-n-a-t-e H-i-l-l-a-r-y?"
"alive" is a relative term. We've been blessed with too much. A good thing, I suppose.
Don't make us surrender...
