Live and learn :)

Or.. go home tonight and watch Twister or Reap the Wild Wind if you really want to zone out until we have something to work with..

Going to lunch before it rains. Very hot in Miami and Jim in high places says nothing is gonna happen and then when it rains it will pour so get some much needed rest during the slow period before those 2am advisory feedings lol.

Or.. you can sit around like my brother Jay in Greece watching yesterday's video.
