Spend less time shooting and more time studying, and all will be well.

She's taking a gap year then off to comm. college. Useful skills? That's a stumper.
Me in talks with Best Buy, hoping to get hired. Fingers crossed.
What are your summer plans? Japan? Seattle?

Come on, you know you don't mean that. There must be Craftsman tools that you don't have yet!

Best Buy, ah? Better get used to wearing that awful blue polo shirt, then.
Summer plans are temporarily on hold until I find out whether or not there's going to be a state shutdown come July 1 on account of the governor and state legislature not being able to come to an agreement on a working budget. It a shutdown occurs, up to 45,000 state employees with be temporarily laid off.
However, I'll most likely make yet another sakura-viewing trip to Japan in early April next year.

Took this picture of the readout of my indoor weather station a little earlier this afternoon:
Note the outside air temperature: 105ºF (40.6ºC). It's our third straight day of daytime temperatures over 100ºF.

Why did the plan to visit Niagara Falls fall through?

If you've been following the news, you're probably aware that much of the interior of the US is currently sweltering under a stifling heatwave. Here's an image of the readout on my remote weather station, taken a few minutes ago:
For the metric-centric, 113ºF converts to approximately 45ºC. I don't think it ever got this hot in Singapore. The intense heat has caused the road surface on some stretches of the freeway to buckle.
According to the weather forecast, we have about another week of near-100º weather to endure, before a slight cooling trend sets in. Right now, anything under 90ºF would be a relief...

Crap. Now they'll calling for strong storms with possible damaging wind and hail to hit us later today.
The revolver's a Ruger Super Redhawk with a 9.5" barrel, chambered in .480 Ruger. Here's a full image of it:
I've also got three other Ruger revolvers chambered in .454 Casull, .44 Mag. and .357 Mag.
