It is 7 o'clock, ladies and gentlemen, air quality alert for the state until 11 p.m. this evening, although, I guess that would be tonight, not this evening.

Although the air quality will improve by this afternoon, so that's good. Then it's all about the heat with a brief break on Sunday, followed by the hottest of the stretch next week. Today, mostly sunny, breezy, and warmer with a high of 83. Tomorrow, sunny with a high of 94. Sunday, not as hot with a high of 86. Yeah, I mean, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, they're talking sunny, hot, and humid all three days. 92, 93, 96. So a lot of sun over the next seven days. I got to be honest with you, I have not noticed the smoke. You guys noticed the smoke? I was going to ask you guys, am I the only one who's not by this? I don't get it. I'm glad you guys are not either. It's almost like I keep going to my, trying to remember my brain. I know. And I've seen a lot of fog lately because it's been cooler in the morning. Yep. And I'm going, is that? Nope. Nope. That's not it. People's all I can smell it. I can't smell a damn thing. I don't see anything. I don't smell anything. What the hell? Yeah. I was supposed to go like on a jog the other day with a friend of mine and he goes, I can't do it. I can't go outside in this air. Oh God. I was like, our parents used to smoke pilot hackers in the vehicle with the windows rolled up. Oh yeah. With us in the back seat. You can't handle a little bit.

I don't even recognize the smoke, but really? He's like, oh, dude, I can't do it. Not with this. No, of course not. Honest God, and I'm not making this up what Rudy just said. From the time I was about two until I was about eight when my dad finally hit the road, Whenever we went anywhere, I never saw them because the smoke was so thick in the car, you couldn't see anybody.

Absolutely.

Like, jeez. The second this stuff started happening, I told somebody, I was like, I can definitely tell your parents didn't smoke. Because everybody who had parents who smoked, this stuff does not affect us at all. I love the smell of smoke on people.. I do too, actually. Because it's like, oh, it just reminds me. I mean, my Beverly used to smoke, which is so wild because she's like a hell freak, but like she used to sit on the porch and smoke. And, oh, it just reminds me of, oh, so many good memories. The only bad memory about smoking I ever had.

I'm never, not kidding.

I went up to Bayfield,

going with his friends,

had a sailboat.

We went out of a sailboat.

I think it's the Bayfield Inn or the Bayfield Restaurant or something.

Really good place, right?

And I had never experienced this before,

so I went like,

what the if? I didn't mean to.

But this woman was talking to her husband.

And all of a sudden, her husband goes, yeah, you're absolutely right.

I'm like, what the hell?
