How’s your week going?
Hot and muggy is still in the Ohio Valley, and will be for a few more days. Needless to say, it was hot playing golf today, but I keep my fluids up for my mediocre golf scores. I hope my consistency returns!
Below is your mid-week dose of satire. Any favorites? For those desiring a challenge, make your own combination by using the information in the headlines. My combo is at the end.
FYI: I hope to announce (on Friday) the next act of Time: The Musical. Meanwhile, have a good rest of the week.

I like the new header, Frank. It’s very hot and summery, although we’ve had lots of rain recently. What’s going on here?! It doesn’t rain in California? My fav is 70% of the World Population needing a benefit concert. I think this is actually probably truthful!
