Something I did actually know but thought I would mention.
Next time you are in Los Angeles, rather than refer to it by its shortened name of 'LA', you could use its full name which is "El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula"

I didn't know until today that there are over 5,000,000 adults in the UK who are yet to get their 1st Covid jab. Tune in to BBC2 @ 21:00 hrs on Thursday evening for the gory details.
Keep smiling, it's good for your well being

Thank for the heads up on that Moby, but I think I may be taking a shower then. 
Don't worry, be happy

It was blooming’ hot in Scotland yesterday…at least 1300C
‘ScotRail crippled by heat ‘straight out of the Sahara’
SCOTLAND’S trains ground to a halt yesterday after the heatwave forced blanket speed restrictions of 20mph to stop tracks from melting.’
From the Telegraph.

How do they know that.?
