It's been a weird summer, weather-wise, this year. There's been a lot of rain, I would have thought enough to qualify as one of the wetter years on record, yet when it's been sunny and hot it's been very sunny and hot, like the really hot summer of two years ago. Yesterday: sunny, very hot. Today: rain, and I even had the central heating on low for a half-hour.

I'm no metreologist but I've decided to blame it on the United States. An extremely powerful cold-front of indignation from right-wing bloggers over the Cindy Sheehan affair has disrupted the gulf stream, which brings hot air to the U.K.

Or maybe the cold-blast was from DC Comics, who have ordered a gallery to take down homoerotic pictures of Batman by artist Mark Chamberlain, which can be seen here. I tend to think DC should just suffer in silence, these are, after all, fairly insipid pictures and don't deserve the boost being made notorious by DC would give them.
