Well, I'm taking it easy this morning. I did quite a bit of lawnmowing yesterday.

Good thing too. Looks like some rain is headed this way.

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE:

Chris Rock's "Quote of the Year"...
"You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named Bush, Dick, and Colon.
Need I say more?"

Good Morning fellow Canteeners!
It’s getting to be hot and muggy around here at night. They say we’re going to have our last cool snap this weekend , going down to the high 50’s, then it’s full bore summer - headed our way.
