#27 pretty much says what I meant...The Union thing is a "blue duck" as my Aussie buddies categorize such things as 'past history'....they may have their leadership goons, but the lads have learned that there's a curtain when they punch the ballot.

Not to worry.

PS - neighbor lady (quite elderly) is flying out to Michigan over the weekend; anything below the 118 degrees we hit today would be mucho appreciado, on her behalf....it was so hot today that the BBQ preheat only took half the time, since the Weber thermo started at 160 degrees on the interior of the lid.

""118 degrees we hit today"""

I think 104 is the hottest I've ever seen here, although the humidity is worse here than the Mojave Desert.

We complain in Michigan when it hits 90.(ducking) :)
