On the plus side, my dad has decided he's ready to test his back at golf again, so we'll be heading out on Saturday. Assuming the weather holds to its current prediction.

Today is Wednesday, Aug. 6, the 218th day of 2025
with 147 to follow.
The moon is waxing. Morning stars are Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus. Evening stars are Mars, Mercury, Neptune and Saturn.
On this date in history:
In 1890, the first execution by electric chair was carried out. William Kemmler was put to death at Auburn Prison in New York for the ax murder of his girlfriend.
In 1926, Gertrude Ederle of New York became the first American to swim the English Channel.
In 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Three days later an atomic bomb hit Nagasaki and Japan soon surrendered, ending World War II.
In 1965, U.S. President Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law. The measure barred states from conducting discriminatory voting practices.
In 1969, Robert Rheault, commander of the Green Berets during the Vietnam War, and seven of his subordinates were arrested for summarily executing Thai Khac Chuyen, a Vietnamese civilian they suspected of being a double agent. The charges were later dropped, the Army said, in the interests of national security.
In 1978, Pope Paul VI died at the age of 80 after a heart attack. He had led the Roman Catholic Church for 15 years.
In 1986, William Schroeder died of a stroke in Louisville, Ky., after 620 days with the Jarvik-7 mechanical heart. At the time, he had been the longest-living permanent artificial heart patient.
In 1997, a Korean Airjetliner crashed in Guam's capital city of Adana, killing 228 people.
In 2009, the U.S. Senate confirmed the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor for the U.S. Supreme Court on a 68-31 vote.
In 2011, Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan shot down a Chinook transport helicopter, killing 30 Americans and eight Afghans. Officials said it was the highest U.S. death toll in a single incident in the decade-old war.
In 2012, U.S. President Barack Obama signed legislation that bans protests within 300 feet of military funerals 2 hours before or after the services.
In 2018, rival leaders in South Sudan signed a power-sharing agreement to end a five-year civil war and form a transitional government.
In 2024, Vice President Kamala Harris announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz would be her running mate in her presidential campaign against former President Donald Trump. Trump won the election.

Lull lull?
I could use a good lull right now. Work has been a drag all day, and leadership has their heads too far up their asses to see how stupid they are. I think that must be a prerequisite for being in management.

Getting ready to drop the oldest off at work, then taking the other two to get stuff they need for school. I'm guessing whatever money was left in my paycheck shouldn't get comfy in my account. :D
Hazzuh!
