While parts of the country are starting to cool down, other areas remain stuck in the simmering heat (often called “the dog days of summer”). Here’s a truly cute 24-second video (and potential way to help you stay cool):

For my friends down-under, just heading into summer, you might consider this strategy for staying cool, too, LOL!

I actually started to post this video yesterday (or was it the day before, I cannot remember), but life has its way of getting in its own way. However, that doesn’t make it any less interesting.

Imagine the surprise these shoppers in a “smaller” grocery store received, when out of the blue…

Actually these types of displays are always a kick to watch! I just wonder how in the world they pull something like this off?!

I normally only get hooked on the U.S. Open when it comes to professional tennis. However, this year I’ve found myself following the likes of Federer (unfortunately kicked out near the top) and Nadal at Wimbledon. Yes, there are American players in the running, but as you can see one can be a big fan regardless of a person’s country of origin.

It’s all very proper in England (that’s a compliment). With “ladies” and “gentlemen” playing, and a typically restrained crowd (although it’s getting rowdier as the end approaches), it’s very different than the U.S. Open (I believe coming in August).

That said, this morning a friend of mine sent me an amusing tennis video. It’s sort of on the lengthy side (at 8 minutes or so), but you need to get a big deeper into it to appreciate the “antics” this would-be professional tennis player demonstrates. He has the crowd in stitches most of the time. Enjoy!

A good friend of mine sent me this – granted you may have also received it, but if you’re a cat lover, this is really going to crack you up!

So… true or false? Real or not? It doesn’t really matter because it’s hilarious! Being a cat lover myself, and missing my two who both passed last year, this definitely brought more than a smile to my face and had my husband cracking up for quite a while.
