"If This Is Summer, Then Where... "

is the ice cream truck?"

Not sure if you were aware of this but it was 70 degrees this weekend in NYC.
I was walking with Anna and she evidently noticed how warm it was and wanted to know why the other joys of summer were not around as well.
So I explained to her that no, it is not summer--actually it is January and just especially warm.

From the look on her face I could tell she thought mine was a fairly minor point; on a day like today, the guy should still be working, shouldn't he?

[Editorial note: when I read Anna's quote, I can not stop saying it in my head in the voice of Darth Vadar. As in:

"If this is a consular ship, then where is the ambassador?!"

You remember, right? From the first Star Wars (uh, I mean technically the 4th)? Right after Vadar boards Leia's ship and is asking her where the stolen plans are and she claims the ship is on a diplomatic mission to Alderran?

Insufferable geek, I know.]
