    I have been out in the sun,working hard, all of my life, now after 30 years I have developed a heat intolerance disorder that could be fatal...New research finds that an individual has a "bank" that reflects the proper working of an alliance of internal organs. This bank gets withdrawn from over the years depending on heat exposure and exertion. The sign that you are "broke" is when you get weak and disoriented despite the amount of water you drink/rest...you must get into a cooler environment..fast or you go to heat stroke. That is why they used to find farmers dead in the old open tractors in the middle of the field ( AC tractors are the norm now since lost farmers are in their 60's plus). Hot weather is good for stripping insulated #2 wire..small consolation....So be careful!!!

    Thank you Heaven. It's actually been raining pretty heavy in northeast east Oklahoma for the past 30 minutes straight. I hope it continues for another hour and returns in a couple days. We could use a 2 week pattern.

    Finally rained over the weekend! My grass is already getting greener. More rain expected this weekend but they are wrong all the time. If the meteorologists were right about the storms we were supposed to get this summer we would be in a flood not a drought.
