Hmm. I thought that was the warmer part of NZ.

We are warmer than south.

They had -22 the other day.

Resisting the urge to say 'cool'.

Your restraint warms all our souls.

Walking around an oil terminal in full safety gear.

Oh, god! You'd be getting heatstroke within ten minutes!

Wimbledon: longest semi-final ever, apparently. One participant: a certain Mr J Isner, who seems to be making a habit of getting involved in this sort of thing. Thus far, there have been a mere 22 games in the final set, so I doubt he's particularly impressed.

Well it was Anderson who took 13-11 in the fifth to beat Roger, so...

Also, Isner is 4 aces away from Ivanisevic’ tournament record.

Pfft. Trivial by Isner's standards.

Now up to 31 games. A few more still needed to get within a ton of Isner's most famous match.

39 games. Isner within a ton of his PB.

Anderson wins 7-6 (8-6), 6-7 (5-7), 6-7 (9-11), 6-4, 26-24. Right on the half-ton.

I've never seen a full tennis match.

There used to be a hardcourt tournament not too far from you, in Stowe, VT.

On that note, both ladies’ and gentlemen’s won by players who overcame crap years to return to 2016 form.

So my Mom got a phone call a few hours ago that may have a potential kidney for her. My parents just left for the hospital so they can run tests on her to see if she is a good match. If all goes well, she will be spending the week in the hospital.
