Turn up the heat!!  Well, it was nice while it lasted but it seems as the heat wave has started and the end of our nice Winter.  We don't even get a Spring which is sad.  It hasn't been like 100 degree weather but in the high 80's which is pretty hot.  The nights are good but was able to sleep with windows open so it was cold but not hot.  Our weather is just not right and seems like its getting worse in that I mean more dry and hot days instead of seasons and this Winter had nearly zero rain in comparison to last year.  Global warming and all that ... as we are starting to shift towards toxic energy again instead of clean and efficient which none of that makes any sense.  It is a sad sad day, country and world.  World because what we do in this country effects so much outside of it since we are the largest consumers of just about everything!

Weekly Update:
DUCKS!!! So not sure if I mentioned it but they have returned again and are hanging around the pool.  The duck poop around and in the pool is a lot and you can see the brown piles at the bottom of the pool, pretty gross.  At least around the pool it stays out but when I see what is in the pool ... I start to wonder how much is in a pond in like a park or lake!  And people swim and hang out in those lakes, pretty gross.  My pool guy said to get floaters in the pool and leave them there.  I guess ducks don't like those around and won't go in the water maybe?  So need to go out and find some cheap ones to toss in there and see what happens.

At the movies:
A boom at #1 as A Quiet Place shouts out a loud 50 million for its debut.  Well above all expectations and solid word-of-mouth could carry this to a cool 100 mil cume.  Slight drop down to #2 is "Ready Player One" with an extra 25.1 mil as it is just inches away from 100 mil cume domestic, should get that sometime tomorrow more than likely.  New at #3 is Blockers with 21.4 mil and almost right on target.  Still running around at #4 is "Black Panther" with 8.4 mil extra and still has some steam left in him.  Rounding off the top 5 is "I Can Only Imagine" with 8.4 mil more and likely the last we will see of it..

New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two this week starting with Chappaquiddick coming in at #7 with 6.2 mil and pretty much expected.  In at #11 is The Miracle Season and hitting 4.1 mil, also right at expectations on this one as well.

Facts & Tips:
France used the guillotine as recently as 1977.

By the time Skynet became self-aware it had spread into millions of computer servers across the planet. Ordinary computers in office buildings, dorm rooms; everywhere. It was software; in cyberspace. There was no system core; it could not be shutdown. The attack began at 6:18 PM, just as he said it would. Judgment Day, the day the human race was almost destroyed by the weapons they'd built to protect themselves. I should have realized it was never our destiny to stop Judgment Day, it was merely to survive it, together. The Terminator knew; he tried to tell us, but I didn't want to hear it. Maybe the future has been written. I don't know; all I know is what the Terminator taught me; never stop fighting. And I never will. The battle has just begun. - Nick Stahl as John Connor in "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines."
