The heat downstairs here wouldn't bother me so much if it wasn't humid. The A/C we've got in the window, well, it can't be run till we take it out of the window and figure out why the unit is leaning into the house and dumping the moisture down the wall instead of leaning out and pouring the water on the ground like it's supposed to be doing. The windowsill has settled some, that much is apparent from looking at it. The job of suring up the frame and getting the A/C repositioned isn't one I"m looking forward to helping with, but it's not a one person job.
It rained a little today, and while I was outside, I happend to get a few pictures of some nice things around the home. I don't have them uploaded yet, I took them at a higher resolution than my previous ones, so I'm in the process of making them web friendly right now. I can promise that they look good, if appraciating simple nature is your thing.

Thank you for saying so, I guess my artistic sense spills over to photography.

The Weston State Hospital is over a hunderd years old, and it reflects beautifully the era in which it was built (post Civil War). Sad to say, but America is destroying it's own history by allowing similar sites to be demolished because they weren't kept up in the first place. The Weston Hospital is on the road to restoration, but it has a long way to go yet.
I would be a hypocrite if I didn't give the podcast another chance. I'm always telling others to give things that "one more chance" so I have to honor the spirit of my own advice. I don't know what I expect to hear in this coming podcast, and that little voice in my head is telling me to prepare myself for a range of responses to my comments on the matter. Since I commented in the podcast thread as well as send the e-mail, it's almost certain that I'll take some kind of ribbing for being offended. As of this posting on Sunday Morning(East Coast US), the podcast hasn't been posted yet, so only time will tell.
Let me put it this way, when Satan names his favorite of the 31 flavors, I'll think about construction work. They don't do a lot of apprenticeships around here, and I have
NO respect for a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings who sit around on their butts all day heckling the non-union construction workers who at least are earning an honest living by actually going to work every day. I don't have any sympathy for "that restaurant is being built by nonunion labor" garbage. If the [
Censored] unions actually worked instead of crying about every little dip in what they "earn" for doing jack [
Censored] them maybe I would see things differently. I've been unemployed for six years so I don't give a [
Censored] about the unions crying because someone else is willing to work where they're too [
Censored][
Censored] high and mighty to pound a single nail because they've priced themselves out of the market in terms of unrealist, and overinflated wage demands.
Best Buy is two hours, three hours, and threee plus hours away closest to furthest respectively, if they build a store in my town, I'll be one of the first to apply for a job there. I gave up on Home Depot after updating that online application (they will not take them in the store anymore, they don't have paper applications) for six months and not getting a response. The older associates (in terms of age) are the ones you want to talk to about anything at HD, they usually know what your talking about (that's how it is here anyway, the young ones are all like o_O; Duh!!!). Lowes rarely looks for people in my area, guess they don't have a lot of turnover, which is good for them, but not for people who need jobs.
