Good morning GH. It is currently 10:00 AM here in our fair city.  I am a bit later than usual, but that's because I had to wait for the cable guy to bring a new box.  All seems to be well, and I am supposed to have 30 vs. 15 Mbps.  Who knows for sure?  It is working better than it did.  Current temperature on the desktop is 71 degrees, and skies are cloud free.  The expectation is for 90 plus degrees tomorrow, and then back down into the 70s and 80s.  Who says that Global Climate Change is a hoax?    I dunno, just ask the people who live in Florida or Colorado, and of course, drought stricken Michigan.  Sugar the Weather Dog was herself a bit under the weather the last couple of days.  But, Mary thinks, and I concur, that too many bones are too many bones.  Our newly completed patio looks great.  Pictures on Mary's blog.  Now, Mary wants to finish putting in bark chips and a hydrangea in her flower bed out in right field.  This sounds more like work than I care to contemplate.  Now, for the real purpose of today's blog.   I just started a new book, entitled Engines of Change, by Paul Ingrassia, a former Detroit Bureau Chief for the Wall Street Journal.  He is a defacto car guy, and his new book chronicles A History of the American Dream in Fifteen Cars.  He devotes a lot of space to Corvettes, if anybody is interested in those cars.  I have just begun, but his introduction reached out to me, so it should be a good read, and a must-have for all car guys.  I checked mine out of the local library, but someone who was interested could get one at: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Engines+of+change.  Otherwise, not much to report.  I have already had my...Tea time.
