Not just lemonade

Walking up my suburban street today I noticed a fine example of modern entrepreneurship. These two young angels had set up a lemonade stand. But not just ANY lemonade, mind you. No, these girls were selling ORGANIC lemonade!
You see stuff like this on TV, the quintessential American spirit of free enterprise, and now I've got to see it for myself.

But it's big for New York

This past weekend, I strained muscles and worked up a sweat moving to my new apartment.

The old one was nice but way too big for me and my meager ways, so I moved into a smaller one-bedroom place. But when I started moving my stuff in and it started occupying space, I realized just how small my new living quarters actually are!

My friend, WeMo, kindly pointed out that my new abode is big for New York, it's even considered big for Cape Town. The people in these two villages must be very tiny then.

Warmer than a bear's fart

No beaches in Pittsburgh but it sure is hot enough that I'd like to go to one and get all red and sore. Then peel. But I wouldn't get too red and sore if I wore a smart bowler hat like the man in this photo! I wonder if they do that in Durbs-by-the-Sea!
