Another week, another heat wave.  As I walked through the (mostly) air conditioned skyways this afternoon, I noticed that more people were using the skyways than the sidewalks below.  We Minnesotans are a fickle lot.  In five or six months, many of us will be complaining about the cold and these sultry days will seem like a fevered dream.  But, as with most things in life, a little perspective is in order.  Scores of Californians have died from heat-related deaths in the last couple weeks. 

 

After going into the office on Wednesday and participating in a teleconference this morning, I think my next vacation will be to a place that forces me not to do any work.  I wonder if French Polynesia is accessible.
