Credence Clearwater ~ Down On The Corner
This weekend we will be inside most of the time, but no AC in the drill hall. I hope they have some decent fans going.
Now that BP sounds better. Go Chuck!!!
The fork in the road: On some days, the Tour de France is just hell on wheels.

Welcome to the Canteen, AU72...excellent caption! LOL!
Bobble Hair Day at the ballpark: Yankee fans receive a free Jason Giambi mustache with admission, resulting in more than a few whiskered preteens. To be fair, Giambi's 'stache is not nearly as droopy as these '70s throwbacks.
Rub a dub dub, one man and his sub: Inventor Tao Xiangli says his home-made submarine, built from oil drums, is fully functional with periscope, depth control tanks, electric motors and two propellers. He plans a maiden voyage soon.
Can I interest you in a nice katydid, ma'am? Perhaps, a 17-year locust? Earrings made of dead cicadas tempt a customer in Sandwich, Mass. Seventeen-year-old jewelry makers Brady Cullinan and Katheryn Maloney are hoping their dead bug necklaces and earrings create a buzz.
'I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed,' she explained. 'I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let you stay in my house.'
'Don't worry,' Jim said. 'We'll be happy to sleep in the barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light.' The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the night. Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on t heir way. They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.
But about nine months later, Jim got an unexpected letter from an attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally determined that it was from the attorney of that attractive widow he had met on the ski weekend.
He dropped in on his friend Ron and asked, 'Ron, do you remember that good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up north about 9 months ago?'
'Yes, I do.' said Ron.
'Did you, ER, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?'
'Well, um, yes!' Ron said, a little embarrassed about being found out, 'I have to admit that I did.'
'And did you happen to give her my name instead of telling her your name?'
Ron's face turned beet red and he said, 'Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I did.' 'Why do you ask?
''She just died and left me everything.'
And you thought the ending would be different, didn't you?... You know you smiled...now keep that smile for the rest of the day!
