HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JIM!!
Happy Birthday, Jim! I love you very much!

That’s the word. It is too hot with no break in sight. According to the National Weather Service,
TODAY MARKS THE 20TH DAY IN A ROW WITH HIGHS OF 95 DEGREES OR
GREATER AT HUNTSVILLE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT…TYING A PERIOD IN 1914
FOR THE LONGEST CONTINUOUS STRETCH OF SUCH HOT TEMPERATURES.
TOO HOT TO EVEN BLOG!!!
I decided to do a little analysis of the blogging habits of my siblings. The following table shows the number of posts per sibling per month over the last 12 months.
| Jimmy | LA | Sue | Kay | |
| July 2007 | 10 | 6 | 2 | 1 |
| June 2007 | 8 | 6 | 1 | 2 |
| May 2007 | 15 | 16 | 6 | 2 |
| April 2007 | 9 | 7 | 3 | 4 |
| March 2007 | 7 | 7 | 1 | 1 |
| February 2007 | 7 | 6 | 0 | 0 | January 2007 | 10 | 6 | 4 | 2 |
| December 2006 | 13 | 13 | 3 | 2 |
| November 2006 | 21 | 10 | 1 | 3 |
| October 2006 | 9 | 6 | 1 | 3 |
| September 2006 | 13 | 6 | 4 | 5 |
| August 2006 | 22 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| TOTALS | 144 | 99 | 42 | 37 |
Here are some of my observations regarding the data:
1. The number of posts corresponds with placement in the family (Jimmy, firstborn, has the most posts, LA, second-born, has the 2nd highest number of posts, etc.).
2. Jimmy has the highest number of posts in a single month (22 in August 2006).
3. Sue and Kay are tied with the lowest number of posts in a single month.
4. With a few exceptions (notably August and November 2006), Jimmy and I post about the same number of posts per month — and the number fluctuates. In April, Jimmy had 9 posts to my 7. The next month, Jimmy had 14 to my 16.
4. Almost without exception, Sue and Kay post about the same number of posts per month.
Conclusion: Sue and Kay need to post more.
I spent this weekend with Jennifer and, as usual, we had a great time! She just moved into a new apartment and we put a few finishing touches on it. She is now on the third floor. Being that she is on the third floor, and because it is very dark around the back side of the building, she got the wild idea to make Sadie a litter-box of sorts. We got a big plastic box, some dirt, and some sod and made a “Sadie-box”. Although I didn’t tell Jennifer this, I was rather doubtful that Sadie would use the Sadie-box, but much to my delight, she did! I know Jennifer was pleased!
