Hot!

Well, I hope all you folks who kept bitching about winter and kept crying about summer are happy. It's in the 90s during the day and only gets down into the 70s at night. That Fahrenheit degrees by the way - another thing the USofA hasn't quite grasped yet. However you measure it, it's hot. The problem with hot, is there isn't much you can do to cool off except spend money on A/C.

At least in the winter when the house is cool, you can toss on some sweats or long underwear. Even outside, you toss on a coat or another layer of two of cold weather stuff. That polypropylene will do wonders when you're looking at below zero weather.

However in the summer you're stuck. You can only take off so much. Even naked, you're not much cooler than you are with shorts and a t-shirt. And of course, it's a little hard to walk around naked outside in the high temps and humidity. Not only will the mosquitoes raise hell with all your bare skin, so will the police. And for most, especially in chubby America, naked bodies aren't much fun to look at. It'd be different if we all looked like Jessica Alba or Tom Cruise, but the fact is most of us look like Danny Devito and Kate Smith -- and who'd want to see them naked. Heaven help you if you see me naked - it'd take years off your life.

I can't wait until it snows again!!!!!!!
