Good morning, Stroock's Books affiliates, and happy Thursday.
Temps will push past 100 degrees today. Wish us luck. We approach the heatwave with great unease [Not great fear and trepidation?-Ed] That too. No idea why. The AC just switched on at 9:11 AM, 78 degrees. And then it cooled and switched off. Just the way we like it.
