   We are back in the 33C+ for this week, but at least no tropical storms are   
   forecast.

   I read somewhere recently that we're supposed to have a colder winter than is   
   normal for us in this area.

   A good thing, I hope.

   No rain for this week here, so no relief from the heat until the Sun sets.

   I have an IBM laptop here and if I could get it to work, I could possibly put   
   Warp on it.  But I'm not inclined to open that case again.  (-:

   I figured that.  The 3.5 drives have been tossed aside in favor of thumb   
   drives, although they are available.

    HG> OH YES, you can say that again!   
      
   I don't like repeating myself, but I'll make an exception for this.  'It is   
   nice to feel the soft skin of a woman.'

   You too.
