A thought ...

Before I leave for work (the Mrs. and I overslept this morning so I'm running late).

Are you uncomfortable in this heatwave? I know I am, having to work on hot cars all day, in and out of the shop. Here's something to think about as you go through your day, trying to stay somewhat cool.

In Iraq, our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines deal with this every day, many doing their jobs wearing 75 - 100 pounds of gear. That's not counting getting shot at, blown up, and having to deal with the stench of death and sewage all the time.

Could you do it? In my book, the only definition of "support the troops" means bringing them home.

And if anybody cares how I spent the hottest day of the year.
