So we are certainly in the middle of summer. Temperature is always in the 90's, my electric bill hit a staggering $370+ for July (up nearly 1000 KWH from last month, total: 2930 KWH) and sports sucks right now because the only thing really on is Baseball. Well our minds are not even centered about any possible hurricanes in the near future. So far only a minor tropical storm hit the panhandle of Florida. That made the evening news for a day. I already know a big storm will hit again this year. Luckily Texas being in the corner of the gulf will be hard to reach, but that doesn't mean it will not happen. How can anyone not think Global Warming is the real deal? Just because the hottest years recorded ever were in the last 30 years and the ocean temperature keeps jumping a degree and we drive more cars than ever in the history of the planet. But that's not what is important. Immigration reform, thats the hot topic. All I can say come september, right when the NFL season will finally be back, when you see that hurricane get bigger and bigger and go "Hey that thing is as big as our state, maybe I should leave my coastal home and head to where its safe." If you have to debate about that in your head for more than 5 min, all I can say you just might be in trouble.
