Started today by rescuing a savanna sparrow that somehow got into my daughter's bedroom. Still can't figure out how it got into the house. Her room is the furthest point from any of the doors.

During a film? Supercop. Standing ovation when they jump the motorcycle onto a moving train. Before a movie? After no less than 8 previews, someone yelled, "If I see one more preview, I'm gonna kill 3 people in this theater." My buddy Colin and I replied with a blase, "Start at the back."

Usually, the clothes are a reflection of your mental self-image. Ghosts of children have a more malleable mental state and can imagine different outfits and hairstyles for themselves. At least, that's Lena's current working theory.

Hydrate, people. In this heat, if you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated. Get someplace cool: your local library, an indoor mall, anywhere you can exist out of the blazing sun for several hours.

Sunscreen if you're going to be outdoors. The less sunlight hitting your skin, the cooler you'll stay. Libraries make great places to take shelter from the heat. Know the signs of heat illness and don't hesitate to call 911 for yourself or others.
