How hot Is it?

IT'S SO HOT

.....the birds have to use potholders to pull the worms out of the ground.
.....the trees are whistling for the dogs.
.....the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance
.....hot water comes from both taps.
.....you can make sun tea instantly.
.....you learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.
.....the temperature drops below 90 F and you feel a little chilly.
.....you discover that in July it only takes two fingers to steer your car
(one on each hand).
.....you discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.
.....you actually burn your hand opening the car door.
.....you break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 5:30 A.M.
.....your biggest motorcycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and
end up lying on the pavement and cook to death"?
.....you realize that asphalt has a liquid stage.
.....the potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out
and add butter.
.....the cows are giving evaporated milk.
.....farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from
laying boiled eggs.

IT'S SO DRY in the Midwest that the Baptists are starting to baptize by
sprinkling, the Methodists are using wet-wipes, the Presbyterians are
giving rain checks, and the Catholics are praying for the wine to turn
back into water!

I know you are semi-joking with your post. But I think this is going to go down in records as a very strange weather year.

I think my house has gone above 70F about ten times this year. And not very far above 70 at that. And now the leaves are turning yellow and starting to fall. Seriously.

A ten day summer? May have to start taking summer trips to Oregon instead of winter trips out of Oregon!

Fall season in late July? Somebody dialed the wrong weather channel. confused smiley

77 MGB - Four tone paint - some kind of electronic ignition - hood props - cheap tires - new springs all around - mixture of poly and rubber bushings - original exhaust - fuzzy seatcovers - stereo out of old F150 pickup - virtually no rust - right front wrecked and semi well repaired - just about right for me!

78 MGB - Done right by a good PO, and I only bought it. Tell Jim how nice it is. But I did put in a Datsun 5 speed.

79/65 MGB - Tubby - Carmine Red - V-6 - T-5
Going to do this one more right, less rat rod!
