>Gosh Ihope you all didn't have the storm we just had. My basement always leaks but usually it comes in through the walls and flows out the back door. This time it leaked through the ceiling onto my workbench. Fortunately Ihad just moved all the mirrors I was working on to clear the workbench so I could start some more. It only got one wet.

It has to blow really hard to get the water to come in through the wall and ceiling under my deck. There are trees down all over town. I won't have time to go looking for wood, bummer.

>John, please send some of that rain out here in Arizona. We had 3% humidity yesterday and close to that today, no rain in site and we're supposed to be entering our monsoon. Hope all is fixable, Sean

I just read where women are plowing in the nude to please the gods in Katmandu,Nepal in order to make it rain. Of course I don't know what you plow in Arizona, maybe you could get them to play golf in the nude. Don't know if it would make it rain but then would you really care.

>Hey Sean,

I wish I could send you some of this rain in Louisiana. I think every area in North Louisiana has had at least 10 inches in the month of June, and some areas have had over 16 inches. I don't think that we saw the sun shine for a full day in June. Almost every sawmill and paper mill in the state was virtually out of wood last week, because loggers haven't been able to get in or out of the woods.

>Sean...I'm 7 miles East of the Willow fire, and the smoke and ash fallout have been so bad the past 3-4 days that it's difficult to breathe. I can hear the Apache Drums from their Rain Dances, but so far the dances haven't worked. :-(
