Not sure hot weather bothers golfers…
Bladen County Commissioners meet Monday evening … Regular meeting … same time and place … 6:30 p.m. at the courthouse…
I am up early … every morning … hear vehicles on the roadways … a few after midnight … Wonder who and where they are going … Then I remember, as a youngster “hanging out” on the corner in Bladenboro … Just hangin’ out … Wonder if young folks still do that? Worried the cops and our parents … not bothering anything or anyone … No doubt, some today are going to work … with shift work more likely today…
Outdoor activity probably needs to be completed early … Hot, HOt, HOT today…
“It’s so hot the crackheads are putting the copper back in the A.C. units.”
“It’s so hot fire ants are really on fire.”
“It’s so hot, I understand they are installing a fan in the debt ceiling.” Just kidding…
