Gefilte fish is an appropriate snack for almost any weather situation.

Oy, yee-haw and glorioski ... it’s here! Direct from Apple’s overseas sweatshop in Chengdu, China, OUR BRAND NEW iPAD ARRIVED TODAY. This thing is truly beautiful, but the touch-screen technology — easily mastered by toddlers, nitwits and just about everybody else on planet earth — has left yours truly somewhat befuddled. Therefore, to help me to figure it all out I set up an appointment on Thursday with a “genius” at the Apple Store in Dallas to show Sam and me the basics. In the meantime I just ordered an excellent yet remarkably inexpensive iPad travel case from Amazon, pictured below.
We had an interesting day around here, weather-wise. Lots of thunderstorms started rolling in before sun-up and continued on and off until late afternoon. Nothing major, but we definitely had some ongoing boomers and nice steady rain. At the moment there’s yet another line of storms moving in, this time more severe with lots of bright red crap on the map (see below) from Weather.com. The red star indicates Howdygram headquarters in Mesquite.
Thought y’all might enjoy the following video clip made by a frightening young woman for an online dating service. You’ll understand why I chose an adjective like “frightening” as soon as she opens her mouth. I’d be willing to bet she’s still single.



And now I think I’ll join Sam in the family room and eat gefilte fish while we watch the storms roll in, because gefilte fish is an appropriate snack for almost any weather situation. Thank you for reading this.
