Hope you week has gone well so far. The hot and humid days of a Ohio River valley summer has definitely arrived. Fortunately, the breeze helped ease the condition on the golf course. I drank my share of water, but I simply wasn’t on my golf game tonight.
For I forget, thanks for the numerous milk suggestions in yesterday’s post.
Meanwhile, it’s time for a midweek pick-me-up with some satirical headlines from The Onion. Any favorites?

Cracked me up. Our winters make some spectacular potholes, yet it takes until the next winter to get some of those ponds filled. I guess it depends on who drives into them.
And this:

Is just plain funny. 🙂
