IMO who gives a rip about the heat...the kids are inside >90% of their school day anyway >_>

That's whats I think, Jonathan. Heat should really have nothing to do with when school starts.

What about most of the students who have to walk home during the peak of the heat? I hate to keep bringing up the heatwave in August 2007 but it was hell having to walk home when it was 105° outside that whole first week I went back that year. Having a heavy backpack didn't make it any better. I couldn't take the bus or the train since it's halfway between my house and school that wouldn't make any sense. and nobody in my family drives anymore except my sister who's at work when I get out of school. Like Molly said it would better to go in September when it's cooler like in the 70's and low 80's.

It's called water and cool clothes. >_>

PLUS most kids who walk do not live far away from the school...most are home 10 mins max...the wait sometimes if they are picked up by a parent.

I seriously don't get as to why people start school so freakin' early. Who would want to go to school in such hot weather? Most schools in the Southeast have school starting this week. In the Northeast, most people go to school in September. I can understand going to school in the end of August but in the first week while in "full summer mode" doesn't seem right.

They haven't had the first day of school start in September since the 90's here when my sister was in school. They are ripping us off of a summer vacation because were technically getting out in Late Spring (May) and going back during the peak of summer (August) Don't they know how to look at a calander? I rather be out from June to September, I wish they could realize that would be much better.

It makes no sense, September is better since it starts to cool down then.

it came to my attention that the previous two graphics I uploaded to the website failed, so after a few days away from the house i've uploaded them to photobucket, and since the pictures are quite big...here is a link instead.

I Like Stephanie Abrams And Mike Bettes Doing Your Weather Today On The Weather Channel.  Which Is On Monday Through Friday From 7AM-10AM Eastern Time.

I think we know that, but I like it too if I wake up early enough to watch it.

I sent a request email to Al saying to have on the LF Simcity Week (August 10-14), Wubbzy Week (August 17-21) and Spongebob Week (August 24-28). Also I told them to broadcast from Wubbzy World from August 10-14.

BTW... Wubbzy World is in Luna Pier, MI.

Me too. I didn't realize that was such a popular conversion for old restaurants. I'm assuming they tore the building down. Or not?

Nope, the old A&W has the drive-in structure to this day. I think Viva Tequila used it for parking, now the dealership uses it to protect their shiny cars from hail, etc.

Please post any and all bad restaurant to whatever conversions here.

To get us started, us here in Podunkville had an A&W that was converted to a Mexican restaurant (Viva Tequila , it was goooood) and now it is a car dealership. Good thing it's still a drive-in. >_>

So, any bad conversions in your area?
