I'd love to be in Main right now.
I love it when it's hot out, when I was little and it was in the 90s all my friends went in because it was too hot out, I went in because it all my friends were inside.

She says "It's only 78. What are you going to do when it gets really hot?"
I told her: "The same thing I'm going to do now; go into my room, close the door, and turn on the air conditioner."

It was was probably a nice 72 F with a cool breeze and big fluffy clouds in San Diego.

Vernaltemptress had this to say about John Romero:
STFU if you have air conditioning. It was 90 degrees here in Germany on Wednesday outside and Germans don't install or run air conditioning in anything but grocery stores, so it seems.
I remember when Europeans were crying about dying from heatstroke at 88 degrees in the afternoon and I was wearing long pants in 120.

It's the humidity that gets you.
You damn near need an aqualung to breathe on some days here in the summer.
I work at one of the city parks, and it was insanely hot (40degrees with humidex...in Celsius) Redmage Darkrayver fucked around with this message on 06-10-2004 at 12:41 AM.

Remember - A one that is not cold is scarcely a one at all.
Hot temps + no air conditioning = nothing gets done. Add cold beer : nothing gets done and you don't care.

Vernaltemptress painfully thought these words up:
Peter, where were you last summer, under a rock? The freak heat wave was all over the news in August......
See here in New Jersey, what we get in the news is how people are to hot in NYC, or too hot in Philly.

And last summer I was about 2-10 miles east with a cold beer in one hand, a rod in the other and the only temp I could care about was the water temp

Europeans are funny. They think anything over 90 degrees is hot.
How little they really know.

So that's why the A/C sucks so bad in all BMWs. Ok.
Yeah, Tuesday, I was over in my friends garage in Gilbert AZ after driving 60 miles, with no AC, installing new parts on my car. I only thought it was hot inside the car inside the garage. Worked on it for 5 hours, then went for a 'test drive' during which I squealed the tires more in 5 minutes than I had in 5 months of driving it.
Oh, it was kind of hot today. It's acutally suppost to be a nice cool time where we're bearly hitting 100 this week in the valley. I'll probably go swimming tomorrow.
Thing is.. the base I lived on had three pools. One on the main base area, near the flightline, one in the housing area, that was full of little kid pee, and the Officers Pool, which was hidden from view unless you knew where to look.
The closest of the pools with the lower urine content, was 5 miles from my house. And most days, my friends and I walked there.
Then, I move to Georgia. Hello humidity. I have adapted to the heat, and humidity, and I can breathe fine. But then, I also sleep through the hottest part of the day, and have ceiling fans and AC on all the time.
Now, givin the average age of the forums members.. that means most of you guys started to pussy out about the heat 10 years early. Hell, if I lived in a nice dry heat place, I'd still be happy with the weather.
Fucking South Georgia... where the air is so wet, the skeeters have gills.

We think the same thing in TN. Our humidity is usually over 80%, though.

I know more than you give me credit for.
I grew up in California where we had 90+ degrees from May through September and at least 10+ consecutive days of 110 degrees in August. But there was always a lake or a river to waste the day/weeks/months (depending on one's obligations) at or one could expect A/C in any home, workplace or store.
Then I was in Arkansas (the BFE side), where I first learned about humidity and heat indexes. 80 degrees with 90% humidity was unbearable, but in Arkansas I could be inside anyplace with A/Cing and escape the heat. Except I had a car without airconditioning and lived an hour from work. I had to learn to freeze a can of soda at work during the day and put that can between my legs for the drive home from work to avoid heatstroke.
Then we spent several years in Omaha, Nebraska, where I learned about wind chills, down to -40 degrees (and I feel for those Canucks who have had it worse). Still had humidity in the summers, still had air-conditioned places to go to escape the misery.
After a couple more stops in the States, we find Germany's heat is somewhere between California's dry heat on a good day and Arkansas' humid heat on a bad day. Not a bad thing when it's one day here and there separated by long, cool spells. But it's a bitch not having airconditioning when we have several days of heat with no cool spells in sight.
As for heat, hell, we've gone a month straight and the tempurature has never gone below 90 degrees. Imagine the overnight low being, like, 93 for a month. When I retrained in the Air Force, I went to tech school in Biloxi, Mississippi for 4 months. During summer. THAT'S some serious humidity. Nothing like walking back to class after it's rained and there's steam rising up from the ground.
