That makes for the 12th 90-degree day this year.
Scorching heat wave in the forecast for western U.S. this Labor Day weekend... with temperatures 10 to 20 degrees above normal. Meteorology is a serious science. David Yeomans loves disaster movies like me... but he takes all the fun out of my favorites with his data. GEEZUS! The Day After Tomorrow is unrealistic? Bah! It's a lovely day in Lorain, Ohio. Watching jets making contrails in the sky.
The death of former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev... Never mind.

zondag 21 augustus 2022 Midnight movie - MST3K: Catalina Caper. The bots ask Joel about life in the groovy 60s, and he goes on a rant... There were seatbelts in cars but nobody used 'em! Ron DeSantis was at an event in Pittsburgh recently. Didn't he come to Ohio? Way too close for comfort for me. The event was hosted by Turning Point Action at the Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown. This white Gov. - DeSantis - keeps saying “woke”! He used it 4 times in one statement. Stop. Seriously. Austin Davis candidate for Lt. Gov.: We know that right here in Pittsburgh that hate speech begets violence. The voice of Ron DeSantis is like nails on a chalkboard. Cringy! 😣
Renée Graham: Slowly but surely Liz Cheney is finally recognizing what a lot of us already knew and that's that the extremism in the Republican Party did not begin on January 6th, 2021.

More showers. More storms. The view from my balcony on a rainy day.
Watch MST3K: Manos The Hands of Fate. Sorry. Again. Torgo delivers pizza in only two hours. He's the clown that makes the dark side fun.
