Warm, so so warm ... I guess we are in the typical time frame for this weather but it is sad since the Winter was not typical. I feel like we are in some major global influx here or something, like the world is off base and now we are getting the seasons of Florida or just simply not our weather. How does this even happen or can it even be caused internally? It feels like such a drastic change in just a year or two that you would think stuff like this takes decades if not centuries. But maybe there is both external and internal things happening that are speeding it up? I'm sure if I were a scientist I would know this stuff but I am not, I am just a standby guy who notices that things are not the same and it was just a few years go when the norm was cold winter, warm summer for decades and not that has completely changed or maybe it is just temporary?
Weekly Update:So had a semi-decent 4th of July holiday. Went to a friend's house who happens to live right above the high school that does this a big firework show every year. Good food and fun fireworks but what really caught my eye that night, drones! So when the show started, I noticed four objects go straight up from the surrounding area with some blinking lights. First I thought it was maybe police drones trying to find illegal firework activity going on but then I realized they were either private drones or maybe the city was filming the show from a sky-view? The four drones were surrounding the show and then one of them starting flying around in circles where the show was. Eventually they started to disappearing and I am guessing maybe they were running out of power but I thought it was pretty interesting.
At the movies:Holding off the competition for its 4th week in a row is "Jurassic World" earning another 30.9 million and now over 550 mil domestic. Still on track to break 600 mil but uncertain how far it will go past that with more Summer films continuing to open. Disney's "Inside Out" also holds strong at #2 with another 30.1 mil, so close to the #1 spot. New at #3 is Terminator Genisys with a mild debut of 28.7 mil which is below expectations, I guess since the last film it has soured the followers a bit. Dancing into #4 is Magic Mike XXL with 12 mil and also below expectation but some of this could all be due with 4th of July being on a Saturday and everyone is out enjoying the night sky shows instead. Rounding off the top 5 is "Ted 2" with 11 mil extra and quickly coming to a crawl.
