No, really, the sunset is giving the whole sky this strange diffuse color that's unsettling.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah. A yellow sky like this is a sign of a severe storm, possibly involving tornados.
Not so much a of warning when they come after the storm, though....
Seriously, it's like God (or the Atraxi) put some giant yellow (now orange) filter over the whole sky.

Oh, wow. That is freaky.

I didn't notice soon enough to get pictures. By the time I got outside pants back on and ran out the glow was gone.
Yeah. Sun set around 8:30 or so....
For dinner we grilled some salmon tonight and I made a salad with mixed greens, bleu cheese, strawberries and a vinagrette dressing. Sounds odd, but very tasty.
Hee--Rachel Maddow just equated the length of the unending Wimbledon match today with "watching the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy and you can start reading The Hobbit in less time...Tomorrow, all one player has to do is to win two straight games over the other. And then retire. Or maybe, get married. After all, a perfect match doesn't come along every day!"
Oh, and remember today's talk about thigh holsters? The Flick Filosopher waxes lustfully over them.
Offtopic, but fell asleep, head on keyboard. Had one of my weird dreams:
Spooky dream creature: "One question. I'll answer one question".
Me: "So: what's the scoop on the afterlife?"
Spooky Dream Creature: "Reincarnation. The fundamental secret of the universe is that there's never time to do it right, but always time to do it over.
You know, if you'd thought to ask for lottery numbers that would have done you more good".
Me: "You expect me to have good judgment in my sleep?"
I dunno, shouldn't these dreams be going to someone who uses exotic drugs, or someone deeply spiritual or something?
