Don`t worry, I’m not going to spew about the weather again, except to say ... it’s so hot, the chickens are laying hard boiled eggs. Thanks, I’m here all night! Of course it’s hot — it’s July. And what treat is front and center in this patriotic month? Ice cream, ...

Fa la la la freakity la. The holiday season has finally come to a close...
