It sure heated up again but the nights continued to stay cool.  So what do we do with this weather?  Nothing ... nothing at all.  It hot but at least not humid compared to other parts of the country.  I also heard other parts of the country are getting mass flooding and rains.  What?!  Why are we not getting just a smidgen of this?  Do we not have the technology to move rain clouds around yet? No?  How come?  Special airplanes that can push them or seed the current clouds with water-seeds?  None of this exists yet?  Why??  We need to devote more science money towards this.  I mean if you think about it, could really solve a lot of drought in countries struggling worse than we are.

Weekly Update:

So what happened during this week ... I don't think anything did?  I was suppose to go to a convention over the weekend but based on the plans for that, I opted out because it would have been complete disaster and embarrassing.  But it turns out the ones who were suppose to show up did not till the last day and didn't even bother to arrive till the last few hours of the convention.  After the efforts spent to set up badges and such for them.  I just don't understand some people and the inconsideration ... if someone set something like this up for me, I would take full advantage of it and thank them too ... a week later and not a peep.

At the movies:
Big surprise at the box office this weekend as Don't Breathe earns top honors with a nice 26.1 million to open.  Above expectations and a good word-of-mouth could carry this for another week. Dropping to #2 is "Suicide Squad" with another 12.1 mil and shy of 300 mil right now.  Potentially within reach and with Labor Weekend coming up, could get there now.  Slight drop to #3 is "Kubo and the Two Strings" with another 7.9 mil and will likely do better in the after-markets.  Average drop to #4 is "Sausage Party" with another 7.7 mil and quickly burning out.  Rounding off the top 5 is Mechanic: Resurrection with 7.5 mil and below expectations.  Looks like the public is burnt out on this genre and Statham mix.

Facts & Tips:

Dolphins are unable to smell.

"Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us - in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain... Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club." - Anthony Michael Hall as Brian Johnson in "The Breakfast Club."
