Your August must be very different from our August in Dallas. Both the weather and the politics are depressing. Still, at some point, our weather will get less depressing, maybe even uplifting, but politics will still be depressing.

Up until a week ago it was very hot and dry (for Wisconsin). This morning when I got up it was sunny and about 75 degrees and the couple inches of rain we've gotten recently makes my garden very happy.

I really do feel for you folks down there. Our next-door neighbors are planning on relocating to Phoenix. I think they're nuts.

Our politics is pretty screwy too, though, again, not nearly as bad as yours. We have a crazy freshman House Rep who screams obscenities at Senate pages and we have Ron Johnson. But our senior Senator is Tammy Baldwin and we had a liberal Supreme Court justice installed today, so we also some sunshine in our politics.
