This heat is HOT!

The heat will make you look hotter... if it doesn't kill you. There is no denying that people are invariably a thousand times hotter than those who have succumbed and fallen by the wayside. No two ways about it, survival is sexy.

Of course, this may have more to do with water molecules suspended in air that bend light and distort the field of vision or even a cerebral phenomenon associated with heat exposure. I don't know. I'm not a scientist, damnit! I'm a Texan! What do you people think makes George W. act the way he does.? The man graduated from Yale, but he can't string two sentences together. That's not coincidence; that's Texas.

I'm not sure how he got away with it. The cure down here is a usually a cut-off-the-head-to-cure-the-cold approach. People who laugh in excess are suspect as well...

Therefore, to celebrate a heat index in the triple digits today, a quote From Blazing Saddles:

"C'mon boys! The way you're lollygaggin' around here with those picks and shovels, you'd think it was 120 degrees. Can't be more than 114!"

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

Must be a different Houston, TX than Weather.com ... it says 87°F
Feels Like 92°F. I was going to gloat that Mpls is cool, overcast and 70. Perfect weather. (If you're not trying to suntan.)

Oh, I remember all too well last time "feels like" impacted me so. It was in February and it was 13, feels like 9.

I've got now 91 and feels like 98. It's just 1pm and won't peak for awhile yet.

As for Minneapolis prancing around in 70 degree heaven and people gloating about it, all I can say is that I'll eat token. I'll do it if you make me. Don't make me go there :D

And, girl, you've got me jealous that you can put a degree sign up there and I can't. What's the secret?
