La Tuna Canyon Fire Torches More Than 5,000 Acres (VIDEO)
Well, it's been awful hot out.
It'd be a living hell to be caught in this inferno.
At LAT, "Three homes burned as wildfire torches more than 5,000 acres":

I've Finished The First Man in Rome
I mentioned earlier that it'd probably take two weeks to read the book if I buckled down and plowed through close to 100 pages a day. That wasn't in the cards, but this week I did focus on this one exclusively (except for my teaching prep) and was able to knock it down.
Here's my earlier entry, "Colleen McCullough's 'Masters of Rome' Series."
And see, "Colleen McCullough, The Grass Crown."
And at Amazon, the "Masters of Rome."

Meanwhile, Back in Afghanistan
See Austin Bay, at Instapundit, and a bunch of links, "IN CASE YOU MISSED THEM: My latest NY Observer essay: After North Korea’s latest missile test, Trump puts “all options on the table”."
And on Afghanistan, "MEANWHILE, BACK IN AFGHANISTAN: The place is a mess. But what the Trump team proposes to do makes a lot more sense than the feckless policies of the feckless Obama. (Another recent Observer essay.)"

Amber Lee's Scorching Weather Forecast
It's about 85 degrees in Irvine as this post goes live --- at 10:25pm.
Sheesh.
It used to be like this in Fresno back 1989, when I started out at Fresno State. The only difference was the whole summer was pretty much like this. I don't miss it that much, heh.
In any case, I don't think there's going to be much relief tomorrow. Maybe a couple of degrees. Here's the lovely Ms. Amber with the forecast, for CBS News 2 Los Angeles:
