Happy August!

I would just like to briefly welcome everyone to the eighth month of the year two thousand five. I think this is going to be a great (albeit hot) month. So get pumped everyone, the slate has been cleared, August is the month for renewal and rejuvenation. The following knowledge is from noneother than Wikipedia:

"August was named in honor of Caesar Augustus. The month reputedly has 31 days because Augustus wanted as many days as Julius Caesar's July. Augustus placed the month where it is because that is when Cleopatra died. Before Augustus renamed August, it was called Sextilis in Latin, since it was the sixth month in the Roman calendar which started in March."

I would also like to announce some very good news as far as our little online community is concerned. Yesterday, Jeff's Blog received more hits than ever....20! I know it's not great, but slowly but surely we will have everyone in our fair nation captivated, better yet, addicted to the words we write.

Take care, everyone!
