Now that the weather isn't so unbearably hot, I'm thinking we finally need to have a garage sale and get rid of things we've been boxing up all summer. What weeks do others find best to have a garage sale? I want quick and easy.

I've been noticing the shelving and cabinets in the Big Brother storage room. Is this the kind of shelving they use in garages these days? If so, I really like that the room looks like a room, and all the shelves are adjustable.

My nephew has just bought a new motorcycle. I've only seen it once, but I swear I think that thing had two seats on it. He says he isn't planning to carry anyone on it and that he bought it to save on gas to and from work. Wouldn't a one-seater be more fuel efficient? Why buy the extra room if...

What's with all these square cars driving down the highways? I have noticed more and more of them. They just plain look odd. I don't know the names of them yet, but I'm going to start watching out for them. Why would anyone want one?

There's a special on television right now about drive-in movie theaters. There's one about 50 miles from my house I'm thinking of taking the teenagers to when the weather isn't so hot this summer. I feel everyone needs to experience an all-night drive-in theater. They have first-run movies, too.

My cousin and her son had planned a trip to see her mother this weekend. She lives near Washington, DC. With all the storms and the high temperatures, she was unable to get enough gasoline to get out of town. So now, instead of vacationing at her mom's, with ocean and swimming pools nearby...
