Tropical Storm Lee is pissing all over Louisiana this morning, and they say they could get 20 inches of rain in places. That’s a lot of rain. Fortunately, I heard a government dude say not to worry,’cuz everything’s designed to handle a hundred year storm. So that’s cool. Not so cool up here, though, as yesterday was hot and humid, and today is supposed to be even, um, humider. The weather geek yesterday said “tropical” humidity. My little weather station says it’s 77 degrees with 80% humidity in here, which is pretty damn warm for 6:00 in the morning. All that’s gonna change tomorrow, though, as things cool off, summer ends, and it wouldn’t surprise me if it starts snowing. OK, so maybe it won’t get quite that cold. Soon, though.
Normally, I wouldn’t link to a Wall Street Journal article, but I wouldn’t want anybody to miss out on seeing this one.
You know what’s nice about a laptop carved out of a single block of aluminum (when its touchpad hasn’t gone insane)? It gets nice and toasty warm in the winter. You know what sucks about a laptop carved out of a single block of aluminum (besides the fact that it’s touchpad is prone to insanity)? It gets really f*cking hot in the summer.
Too darn hot.
