Oh great. I guess this means I'm not gonna get the two grand the "other" Lukrion owes me from the "how long before Johnny E starts a Greg is a jackass thread" bet.
Welcome back anyways. B)
I'm working on it.
The summer is no picnic for the people that have to be around me everyday either, they all pray for rain.
I usually calm down around the middle of October.
I should be ashamed of myself.

I complain every damn summer here in Phoenix.
100+ for June, July, August, and most of September. We get lucky every once in awhile when it rains and drops to 99.
It really sucks when the overnight lows are 90-100 degrees.
I can't dig this dude if for no other reason than "Brown Eyed Girl."
I have also heard rumors his dad is Ravi Shankar, and we all know what that means.
I'll be picking up the Silver, Blakey, and Rollins Wednesday.
Late, you probably would not have any better luck with the Border's by my house. The dude always waits until the last minute to put them out.
"I've been busy" he says.
