Gleaning Facebook: Last Day of Summer?

One of my teacher friends is lamenting that this is her last day of summer. As I sit here in our luxurious vacation home (for the week anyway) eating a leisurely late breakfast with my lovely wife and beautiful daughters, in my jammies, feeling the cool southern California sea breeze coming through the balcony doors, listening to the surf, and to the revelers splashing in the gigantic flower bedecked free-form pool in the rolling green courtyard (Ok, so some of the rolling lush lawn turns out to be manufactured), i get to relish the realization that the end-of-summer, for me, will henceforth be the fall equinox -- barring a retirement trip to even more exotic climes. <he-he-he>

Lillian note: "You left out your complaints about slow WIFI access and your [debate with your daughter concerning the proper consistency of eggs."

Oinkers don't sweat; that's why they lay in the mud. You're sweating like a lady of the evening in church on Sunday
