It’s pretty hot, dudes. This weekend it hit 106 at my house. Insane. We’ve had the AC on pretty much non-stop these last couple days. My electricity bill will be terrifying. You can see the barometer’s been dropping too. They say we might even get a thunderstorm here or there. DOPPLER ACTION WEATHER UPDATE 9000…
We had a company outing over the weekend. We all went go-kart racing at this neato indoor racetrack called Dromo One. We rented the whole place out, but of the 23 people who said they were coming, only 8 people showed up. More than half of my co-workers completely flaked and didn’t even call to…
