Mutterings From The Heat Stricken

"Apocalypse soon! So hurry up and vote!"
--flyer posted on a dumpster at 12th and Eason in Austin, Texas

"Be the love that you are looking for."

"You ain't nobody until you do what you want!"
--The Fonz

I decided mid-day in million-degree heat to walk to Nau's Pharmacy, a local dine-in institution, to purchase rubbing alcohol for my infected ear. It's a cool place, forever lingering in the 1950s. I keep expecting to see Fonzie and Richie waltz in.

Speaking of The Fonz, does anybody really remember why he and Pinky Tuscadero broke up?

Am I the only person who thinks about these things?
