Good Morning D League
These stories about the heat have me "sweating". You folks have been in some serious infernos. There have been few days in my life I have been in 100° heat and never in Florida to my knowledge. I have always lived near the coast and we get cooling winds. I was born in Clearwater and I don't think they have hit 100° in history but the high 90's° are close. Where I live now has never been 100° but Florida has a different kind of heat. The sun here can be brutal and the humidity will drain every drop of water from your body. You have to stay hydrated. Currently we have 72° and the high will get to 88°. This is our typical summer pattern with afternoon showers about 50%. But the humidity is there and not going anywhere.
Speaking of July and Clearwater, FL I was born on this day in 1943 at Morton Plant Hospital. I was the first person on either side of my family to be born in a hospital. After a short stay mama brought me home and this is my first house as a child. No AC and no screens on the windows. When grandpa turned 21 he go 100 acres from his mother and later bought 50 more next to it. He build this house when he got married, 1907 and my mother was born in it in 1912.
And this is where my journey down life began. This was an old black and white photo I had colorized. As far as I know we didn't have color photos when I was a child. At least my family didn't. I trust all have a wonderful day and keep cool. It is important.
Yes I am. But not for much longer, my wife flies home tomorrow.
Glucklishe Geburstag!
Fort Myers is a nice area. Very conservative and laid back lifestyle. Also some very nice beaches. This photo was taken of Fort Myers during a recent thunderstorm.
I am no racist so...you can be whatever color you wish.
Man, Victor should move from Transylvania and start creating more creatures to combat the ones trying to take over this country.Fort Myers is a nice area. Very conservative and laid back lifestyle. Also some very nice beaches. This photo was taken of Fort Myers during a recent thunderstorm.
There was probably more energy in the sky from this lightning than all of the windmills can produce in Texas.

I now identify as a black man and I am going to demand reparations!
It's pronounced; "Wictor"... 😁 😁
Thank you Cord. I made it to 79. LOL
Same here SC, we had the same network, called BCP, Before Cell Phone!!!!
Loved that crazy movie, anything Mel Brooks had a hand in was funny! Well almost! Remember Abby Normal?!!!
From now on, you are Johnny! No more Sawnee.
Several years ago, I had emergency surgery for kidney stones at 2:00 AM one morning. I had a bunch of stones. One side was completely blocked and the other was partially blocked. Some are still lodged in my kidney because he drove some into the kidney wall while trying to get others out. He couldn't get them all out. The doc said I could've died and I was the toughest man he had ever seen. Not that I could outfight people, but could take pain. My dad taught me that. I've found drinking a lot of water and cutting it with lemonade helps reduce the number of stones I have.
I forget how old I was, but I needed a loose tooth pulled and instead of letting dad pull it, I ran and hid. Boy was he mad when he found me! I still remember that whupping!
I have been Johnny since my first breath. 5:55 PM, July 21st 1943. My daddy was John so they called me Johnny to keep from confusion. It stuck all through life. Most of my uncles called me Johnny Boy and a few cousins still do.
Shame was the best method to keep me in line when I was growing up. My father taught me your family's name was to be honored and you were not to do any thing to bring shame or disgrace on it. I was taught a woman, especially your mother was the most important of God's creation. You respect your mother and you protect her honor. The word S.O.B. was seldom heard or used and if someone directed that at your mother, the person was surely going to get you in a serious, very serious fight. No kidding around about one's mother.
I loved the first few seasons of MASH but Alan Alda really got on my nerves by the 3rd season. Oh well, Radar votes for grape Nehi as the best.
Gonna watch Night At The Opera tonight. Classic.
When it came to switches, I quickly learned that bigger was better. The small ones would wrap around your legs and could be swung faster.
Losing Wayne Rogers along with McLean Stevenson at the end of season 3, really hurt the show from a comedic standpoint.
