The Coffee House

Morning! Sunny here, with a high of 87F--currently it's about 80F out.

I am stuck inside, but at least it's hump day!

We're stuck inside ,too. 2nd wave of mosquitoes. Nobody's ever seen it so bad. Clouds of them at our doors waiting for us to come out to play. If they made OFF that was SPF30 it would outsell beer north of Cache Creek!

Eww, mosquito invasion! Not good in so many ways. Stay covered!

Happy hump day , hosers!

If they made OFF that was SPF30

You should develop and market this.

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. We are still on the edge of the heat wave. 69F this morning but should heat up into the upper 80's. Some paperwork, a walk with Mary Lou and Maggie, then back for World Cup.

@ceemac: UG! Mosquitos suck. We have nothing like clouds here ... but even a single mosquito is irritating. Gary has UV traps all over the yard. He even has a solar powered UV trap.

It's called a Flame Thrower.

True, I doubt mosquitoes would be attracted to burnt skin..

Oh, Elon Musk... California’s bill to regulate Elon Musk’s flamethrower is being held in committee

 

[Gary A.]

Musk is always ahead of the game.

 

[waday]

For better or for worse

 

[Gary A.]

Being ahead works well with curve balls ... dunno about mosquitos.

 

[waday]

I guess baseballs would work against mosquitoes, but you'll need a lot of them

 

[Gary A.]

Ceemac has a lot of them ... clouds, if Gary remembers correctly.

A nice World Cup photo in The Times.

Also, a fun headline below the fold, "England awash with Cup fervor as Wimbledon makes a racket".

Hi there y'all. 5.xx hours today and 15.30 for the week so far. Slaughtering time until I can get my check. Had chicken tenders and gravy. It's back to very warm outside. So I'm parked in the deli until check.
Going to put some gas in my truck and then head home. Dad and Sister were here earlier.

Nice grapes Gary! I have 2 super powers and one of them is that I am not allergic to mosquito bites. They land on me, they rarely bite me (too bitter???) but even when they do, I do not get an itchy bump. Princess is like a buffet for them and must douse herself in bug spray if going out at dusk or later.

For the record, my other super power is my sense of smell. It is more of a curse though - I have super sensitive sinuses. Can barely tolerate certain smelly foods and it's torture to walk through the cosmetics area at Macy's or be around someone who overdid it with the cologne or body spray. One of the many reasons I stopped commuting on the train every day.
