HOTTER THAN JULY

I'm not certain, but I wouldn't be surprised if Stevie Wonder was inspired by the sweltering Dallas summers when he named his classic 1980 album. He probably wasn't... but again, I'm not certain.

Stevie aside, can I just take a moment to express how excited I am that July is OVER!?!?
