The Week's Best E-Mail

So far, so good on the summer heat/no AC situation. I haven't been uncomfortable at all, knock on wood.

This e-mail forward was sent to me by Galen a while back. I pulled it out of my in-box yesterday and had a good laugh all over again. Not that they mean much from MY perspective.

Have a great Wednesday and a Happy Hump Day!
