Wicked Hot Wednesday!

Whoa baby it is hot! It's not even 8am yet and it's already just wicked hot!

The ocean looks like a sheet of glass. That is never a good sign! That means that it's still and still = HOT! When the tropical waves, depressions & hurricanes start blowing past us, the trade winds come to a screeching halt and that leaves us just sitting here on a dark rock baking in the Caribbean sun. Fans can't do much...they just blow the hot sticky still air around and at .41 per kw air conditioning is just out of the question.

Our electricity rates are beyond ridiculous....& it just went up again...grrr! I stopped in to grab a diet Coke on my way into town yesterday and there was a big WAPA (water & power authority) discussion was going on at the checkout counter. I've been here a long time and not much shocks me....but hearing that our big grocery stores' electric bills are now running over $100,000.00 PER MONTH!!!! Well, that shocked even me. Can you imagine a hundred thousand dollar light bill...every month? No wonder groceries are so friggin' high!

Doesn't matter how hot it is......I've got to light the torch today! Crap....... do you know how icky it feels to sweat so much that you stick to your chair? grrr..... And due to the potential for flying molten glass anytime you torch, torching naked is not a good idea. Plus just the thought of it is a bit creepy!

Speaking of creepy....I was watching CNN this morning and since some airlines are starting to provide Internet access in flight, there seems to be a lot of concern over what would you do if you are on a plane and the guy next to you was watching porn. They're all upset and wanting airlines to filter the Internet. Come on people! Filter the Internet because someone might be offended by what someone next to them is watching or because Little Johnny might see it. Filtering is just another word for censorship and censorship is a slippery slope! What is offensive to one person might not be offensive to another! I had much rather have to sit next to a perv trying to watch porn than to have what's available censored. Notice I said "perv trying to watch porn"....because I assure you that some perv unlucky enough to sit next to me, would not be able to watch porn. I promise you I could make him WANT to surf elsewhere! Come on people, we don't need more laws to protect us, we don't need someone to filter what is available to us, we need to stand up for our personal rights. You can be a perv......you just can't sit next to me or in front of me on an airplane and act like one. LOL!

See what it being over 85degrees does to me? LOL!

I better get moving.....the later it gets the hotter this rock will get! Think about me as you sit in your comfy A /C house today. Have a great Wednesday!


BE BOLD, EAT CHOCOLATE, WEAR ART!!!
