Finally the heat broke today in Baltimore, where it has been hot
and humid for a few days. It
reminded me of Robin Williams' imitation of Walter Cronkite, that old CBS
evening news anchorman, doing, of all things a weather report.
He had him saying, "today it's hot and sweaty, hot and sweaty, with more
hot and sweaty tomorrow, hot and sweaty...." (From his classic movie, Good Morning
Vietnam.) Well, of course the
eighth graders were a little crazier than usual- in their non-air conditioned
room. Ah well.
On the writing front it was another stop on the blog tour
today. Give it a look! There's an interview, a guest post by
your truly, and a nice little sample from Hostages.
