Summer Is Ending
In the Northern Hemisphere.
Well, not officially for another month yet. But what a summer, several record-breaking heatwaves that had one stay indoors anyway (in Europe and from what I heard back in the US too). My brother-in-law's mother had a heat-stroke (though she's recovering); I put up two fans in my room to weather it out (since most apartment buildings where I'm at have no AC).
The temperatures are dropping now, though, the sun is setting earlier, and by late October things will be much different.
And this board is quieter than I've seen it in the 11+ years I've known it. Perhaps a Yahoo or Google group would have been a good idea (I know the FB group exists), but it's not the same as having posted here back in the day, on IMDB where users could come and go (instead of in a closed group). The reasons for this board's demise have already been discussed at length, but it's still rather regrettable and/or nostalgia-inducing.
Anyway, here's to old times.
