The Good Old Summertime

Big News

The good old summertime begins Wednesday. Summer always begins on the 5th day of the 5th moon, so it's obvious how it should be celebrated.

You can tell it's summer. The winos have switched to sunscreen.

Summer begins today in the Northern Hemisphere. I've got an idea. Why don't we all switch to Autumn Saving Time? Tonight before we go to bed, we just move our clocks forward one season; then on December 21, we can set them back one season, and have autumn until next spring.

Yes, it's the first day of summer, a very special day when the highway department closes all the good highways and opens all the detours

Just this morning I saw the first sign of summer -- a robin trying to take off his feathers.

Shallow Summer Thoughts

Yea, summertime -- when everybody takes off their clothes and walks around in their sunscreen.

The pools are already so crowded you have to make a reservation to drown.

I just love summer. Especially in the evening, when my patio is turned into a shelter for homeless bugs.
