August in Chicago ... heat, humidity, rain - repeat. Today's Chicago Tribune had an exhortation to think snow...

So, barkeep, can I please have some iced tea? I'm not ready for winter just yet.

We've had lousy weather too. Heat & humidity but just one day of heavy rain in Indy. It's back to the 90's again tomorrow. :(

I had my first taste of Raspberry Iced Tea the other day & boy is it good. :)
I'll take one iced tea please.

It's a typical summer day in Pittsburgh! It's a hot 89 degrees with the humidity at 60% and a heat index of 98 degrees. As I type this, I'm hearing thunder over the horizon which means more rain. RICHARD, do you the big slushie mixer going? If so, I'd like the biggest slushie you can pour me! No, Mario! not pour it ON me!

RICHARD, you get the beer for the horses and I'll get the whiskey for the men (whiskey sours for the women???). Hmm, haven't had a whiskey sour in years.. think I'll try one. Anyone else?? How long does it take to drive to San Diego RICHARD? I'll be there next month for a week. Planning to head up to LA while there although I know Gini's busy on that Saturday but we'll work something out. YOOOO HOOOO, Sara?? When will you be back from "up North"? Let's salute our PT friends in OHIO and wish them well with this horrible flooding they are having. Floods/drought fires/earthquakes? How about some peace/quiet? Puleeeese??

I have to say, this is one of the nicest August's I've ever experienced! Newport is lovely, temps in the 70's except for just a couple hot days. Cools off every evening when the ocean breezes come in, just lovely! I'll take a TALL iced coffee latte please. And to take your minds off the rain, here's a pic from the TALL Ships festival in July... we sat on the rocky shore & watched them all (about 20?) sail by, very cool!

CS,

Totally cool! that looks like fun...hope you had on your sunscreen and hat!!

WOW!

One tall Ice Coffee Latte? done!

Laurie,
It depends...If you are in a hurry more than three to five hours. It's only 120 miles but you have to plan accordingly!
Oh, you wait until I get a job with goofy hours..

One whiskey sour? DONE!

David,
One huge see-ment mixed Slushie?

DONE!

LP,

Not to say that it's hot and HUMID here, but I think the humidity hit 100% at one point because all of a sudden the sky opened up and down the rain came. It lasted about 5 minutes or so and then stopped. It was still humid after but cooler.

Edit: Richard, "Got Maine Coone?" I had one but I had to send him to the rainbow bridge. :(

I don't think so~ :p Hi Everybody~

Hit me with a Raspberry Iced Tea Please, Bar Keeper~ Do ya have real "Red Raspberries", floating on the top? :D

I've had an Awesome( pardon the 80's phrase) August, ahhh, Summer time, and the Livin is Easy :o Fish are jumpin,and the cotton is .................... :D Well, you know how the song goes, I'm certain of it.

Staggers into the bar.............just survived a "sleepover" I let my niece have at my home.

Have you "ever" had 8 - 13 years olds in your house all at the same time.
Those who know my home - how about games of hide and seek???? (all night!)

They all settled down at 3 AM..............I feel like a truck ran over me today.

Then we were back up at 6 am - because one girl had to go to school. Who goes to school in August? Well, she did.

I couldn't believe it - they ate all night - and had three hours of rest and all of them woke up HUNGRY.

BREAKFAST..............

Pancakes
Bacon
Real Maple Syrup
Fresh Fruit
Cereal
and then..........

could I please make some scrambled eggs?

Oh, yeah and milk and orange juice.

I was slugging down the coffee while I cooked.

So, I would like to put my feet up - let someone else do all of these dishes.......and maybe a Mimosa would help?

The things we do for love!!!:D

Prayers that everyone will be safe in Ohio - and elsewhere with this freak weather.

Sorry Gini,

I have to call you out.

What's the matter?

You open your home to PTers and survive a week, but you let some kids run you over in one day? ;)

People falling on your deck.
Wetting their pants.
The Fire Department shows up.
Bag women showing up in the wee hours.
Chop or dice?
And all this time I thought you were tough!

D39,
Good to see someone is having a good time!
Cyber raspberries o.k.?
DONE!

LOH,
Hey you!

The humidity really sucks the life outta you!

Oh yes,

Maine Coon.....I have the most wonderful, smartest cat on the planet.
When I first met the Edster he fit into my t-shirt pocket. Now he fills one of those cardboard boxes that bottled water comes in. :eek:

One day I'll tell the story of how the Edster came to live with me!

Since "rain" is the theme this Thursdays, I'm posting here with a request for prayers for my good friend Gwen & her family in Findlay Ohio. They lost their home in the floods there. She, hubby, & three little doggies are now homeless.
Bartender, I think I NEED another one of those tall lattees!
:eek: Hi dorothy39, nice to see you back again!

Hi Slick, how are you this morning? It sure has been hot here, we are going through such a drought, the temperatures has been in the hundreds for the past month, and we have forgotten what rain even looks or feels like!

Ice Cold Water here!

Willie :)

08-25-2007, 01:23 PM

May I please have an ice cold beer??? Maybe that will improve my day. Not having a very good one and my new boss has shaken my confidence. I feel so dumb and so stupid. :(

Gini, I'd give anything to have a sleepover at your place right now..... :( :(
*moff shuffles cards*
slick I'll see you one boss and raise with neighbors who fill my trash barrel with their stuff so I can't put mine in it.... :D

RICHARD

08-26-2007, 12:46 AM

It's hot here again. I need a cherry limeade and, in honor of the last week of summer, a chili cheese dog!!! :D (and some antacids)

08-28-2007, 07:07 AM

Hey Connie, how hot has it been getting your way? It has been so hot here, that I just don't get out much, it feels like you would melt from the heat.

Bartender, give me what Connie is having, and what has Mario been doing? Has he been good? I bet he has been getting into trouble. I am going to make pictures of him, and post some of him pretty soon, so everybody be watching for them.

Hi, Willie!!! Good to see you.
It was in the 100s here for a long time but now has cooled down to around 99. The heat index is still over 100 though. Good news is we have a cool front coming in the middle of the week. Our highs will only be in the 80s for a while then.

Looking forward to seeing new Mario pics!!! :D

Why not? Forget the antacids, Thursday's food never is bad for you!
Cherry limeade and a chili cheese dog?
DONE!

Tray,

I guess I'll trade you a cherry limeade and a CC Hotdog for some Mario pics?
Yes, he is always good, It's the patrons that worry me!

DONE!

LP,

He's been shaking the cans that he has been serving, know anything about that? :D
