The July Consumer Price Index was relatively tame rising just two-tenths of 1%, but the cost of putting a roof over your head, rent and homeownership costs rose nearly one-half of 1%, and accounted for 90% of the increase according to the Labor Department. Texas is accusing General Motors of unlawfully collecting private driving data on its customers and then selling the information to insurance companies, all without driver's knowledge or consent. Texas is the first state to file such a complaint. The Mortgage Bankers Association reports applications to refinance mortgages surged by 35% last week. Refinance applications last week were 118% higher than the same week in 2023. The recent drop in mortgage rates to around 6.5% appears to have opened the floodgates.

Today we're bringing a smile to your face and raising a glass to a classic spirit. Claptor is literally the best medicine and on National Telejoke Day it's time to spread some joy. Did you know that laughing can lower stress hormones, boost your immune system and even burn some calories? Whether you're sharing a classic knock knock joke or a witty one-liner, humor is a universal language that connects us all. So go ahead, tell a joker to bring a little extra happiness to someone's day. So why did the toya bring a ladder to work? Because I wanted to jump over Marlowe? Because she wanted to take her humor to the next level. Ooh, that was actually pretty good, especially for you. And after all that laughter, why not unwind with the celebratory drink? It's National Rum Day. This versatile spirit has a rich history dating back to the 17th century in the Caribbean, where it was first distilled by sugar plantation slaves. Rum quickly became a favorite among sailors and pirates, and it's a key ingredient in many classic cocktails like the mojito, bakery, and quinoa. So today, mix up your favorite rum drink and toast to the storied beverage. I was trying to do that glass of water, turn it to rum, actually managed to win tea yesterday. Oh, rum is totally my jam. No, don't make those noises anymore, but I did bring some mixers so we can make some rum drinks. Can I go? Okay. Don't do that either. What do you, you know what, just have a drink here. You know what? How about the sound of a blender right here? I like it. Now we're talking about. All right. All right. Let's start with the Pinacolata. Okay. I'm with Louis Danson. I'm Marlo Anderson.
