I should be grateful I don;t live in Greece...117 F. This is their hottest summer on record plus they have hundreds of brushfires.

Yeah, 95 F. is ok. Would be better if I had AC instead of a swamp cooler.

Maybe I'll take Sag's advice and go fry an egg on the sidewalk.

WTF are you bitching about???? ... Er, ah, WTF?! The electric bill is HOW MUCH? HF! We got cheap rates here, and it is ..... Shut up you noxious nun!

You are NOT noxious. I know your problem: too much money, too much free time, that mansion you live in is too big and those cool summers are getting you down.

By the way, it was a mere 104 F. here today. Felt hotter. If I recall, I preferred cold, snowy winters to blistering summers. Must be sweltering in that habit.

Why not come on up to my 7500 foot (2250 M) altitude. Baa-aaa-aaa.

Unless you have high blood pressure.

Is Colorado any cooler?

So far in northern cal is has been one of the coolest summers we have had in a long time.

The coldest winter I ever spent was a Summer in San Francisco.

Macie, maybe you should go to the City for the Summer.

Another 102 degree day down here on the banks of the Ohio river.

Darned if I can tell if I am having hot flashes....

Well, I haven't experienced any hundred degree days so far and never have over here. The nights are in their fifties now but they are usually in their forties. It has been warmer than normal this year but then we did have a late freeze right in the middle of last June. Flafstaff, not real far from Phoenix usually is about the same temperature as we are here, --also Santa Fe. And in another direction from you I do remember almost freezing to death near Winslow one summer in July at a rainbow gathering after several days of wind and rain. But then I know it costs a fortune to actually live up in Flagg. When I was in Texas, I just couldn't stand the air conditioners so I'd go turn on the shower every half hour or so at home. When I used to live in the Earthlington, New Mexico I'd always be camping out at some hot springs south of there which was higher up than where I live now. There I'd take a quick dip during the day to cool off and then after sunset I'd pretty much just stayed in there to keep warm unless the company got boring and I decided to sleep for the night in my sleeping bag. I think if I were in Phoenix, --well I wouldn't know what to do.
