It's 118 degrees outside.

One hundred and friggin' eighteen...

Ever open the stove to check your cake or cookies and feel that blast of heat on your face? That's EXACTLY what it's like when you walk outside here.

When the wind blows, you just cook faster. Kinda like a convection oven.

WhooooooooooooWEEE!

I know all about dealing with oppressive heat. When I was out smoking last night it was 78 degrees in my garage. I had to turn on a fan.

I bet them poor bastards on the border are hating life about right now.......it's pretty hot in Arizona too.

If I catch a single one of them minutemen even attempting to touch the water that I left out for the illegals, I'll shoot them for tresspassing. I've got a Dragunov SVD that will circumcise a knat at 200 meters.....

Just kidding....I'm too busy watching my two new Japanese beautician girls from Shinjuku give give each other rubdowns on my living room floor to care too much about illegals, minutemen, or anything about right now.....

MACS...drink water, be safe, and get home soon.

when my old man was over there, he said they would blow fans over a wet blanket......the humidity is so low that the water evaporates quickly and this is how they cooled off.

Well... usually. We have a latrine trailer that has 2 A/C's that are blowing HOT air right now, so it is actually warmer IN the trailer.

As far as humidity goes... WHAT humidity? It's hot and very dry.

I've already told the kid to crank the A/C and keep an eye on my hygrometers. I can see the local weather on my Adelphia account, so I know the heat lately.

I keep my fingers crossed that the smokes are doing well.

MACS,

I feel for ya brother I was there last year this time (Balad). The hottest I saw was 127 in early August, I don't care how dry it is, it is freaking hot. Stay inside in the A/C as much as you can.

Nice and cool here in Mira Mesa. 88 outside, but 75 inside. Of course my windows are open and an offshore breeze is gently blowing.
