What'd I SayHow could this be? Ray Charles died. I didn't even know he was sick. What a voice, what a career...
My favorite song? How about his version of "America the Beautiful", although, I have a special place in my heart for "It's Not Easy Being Green."

The Amazing Race 5 cast is announced THEME
CBS has finally set the schedule for The Amazing Race 5 and it will start on-time this summer on July 6, with TAR6 scheduled for fall! There's no indication as to why the "powers that be" changed their minds, or why they will run TAR5 and TAR6 right after each other.
Anyway, the cast has been announced.

Weather whipsawFrom 90° to 59° as I left this morning. It's pouring outside. There's a small river going down the street outside my house. The base was soaked as well, again with all the streets turning into small streams. I was on the RTC side of the base and had to wait about 45 minutes for the machines I was deploying to be delivered, so I just waited outside under a large canopy and just watched the rain. It was great watching the divisions of recruits march by in a torrential downpour.
Unfortunately, we don't have much work to do, so it was only a half day today, and we're off tomorrow for the National Day of Mourning. It's supposed to continue to rain until Monday.
Figures. We have more White Sox games this weekend...
