Happy Tuesday, everybody. We were among the thousands of people who crammed Millennium Park last night for the Iron & Wine concert. We're working on selling "I survived I Survived Iron & Wine at Mmillennium Park" t-shorts on Cafepress in a bit. Yesterday was a scorcher. Skilling Central says today will be the fourth day this year the mercury climbs past 90. "Gulf coast level" humidity will sent the heat index rocketing past 100. So be safe out there today and tomorrow, folks. The forecasters are predicting a drop in the heat come Thursday.
