Good Saturday morning to ya all. Remember when Saturday morning meant cartoon time? From what I understand, some folks are against Donald Duck because he doesn't wear pants, and some of the older stuff because of the violence, yet some of the "cartoons" they're feeding kids now days is full of violence, sex and fantasy from start to finish.
Yesterday we hit a record 97, some TV weather folks say it could get to 100 today. By Tuesday, we're suppose to be in the mid-70's. It's chilly in the mornings, for some, 65 is jacket weather. My shooting buddy is back and we have picked Tuesday to go target shooting, let's hope their forecasts are close.
I got gas at Costco the other day for $2.99 and the next day, the station around the corner from me was at $2.99. I passed an Arco station yesterday on US60 that was $2.81 (cash) and $2.89 (credit). The closer we get to the election, the lower the gas prices will be.
I'm doing some ballasting and needed while glue. I was willing to pay around $25 for a gallon, but all Home Depot and Lowe's had was the yellow waterproof stuff. Went to Walmart and relented to buying a small bottle, but again, nothing. Went to the craft dep't and by golly, found a gallon of off-brand white glue for $6.00. I figured it would be watered down, but got it home and it was as thick as Elmer's and works every bit as good. It will work fine on some of my woodworking projects as well. And yes, it does dissolve with water after it's dry, which suites me well since I stink at ballasting.
Ya all have a great weekend.
