Where are all these slimy politicians coming from, who appear so suddenly in power? It's like the heat of global warming instead of producing mushrooms is producing radioactive Republicans.
I wonder if that's part of it -- that is, there's no ideological reason that you have to be a climate-change denialist to be a Republican, but it's worked out that way.
I think people are justifiably unhappy with a lot of things, but have no idea what's behind them, so they just latch onto the people who tell the best lies.
Weather Underground has betrayed us. It's 97 now. Our power went out, but only for a half hour. Aren't we glad we don't have to wear girdles & nylons? Every time I watch a movie from the 40s, I think about what hell summer was for working folk. Miss Manners may mourn the casualness of society, and sometimes I do, too, but I love that I can wear comfortable clothes.
Well, they said it would be 97 -- I just thought maybe it wouldn't happen.
Oh, man, I remmeber temping in a Nebraska summer, riding three or four busses and walking half a mile to get to suburban jobs, in pantyhose. I hated that so, so much.
Formality comes with far, far too many evils and discomforts for me to ever mourn it. Too many gotcha games, too much oneupmanship, and way too many scratchy clothes.
Thanks, me too. On the fringe of the forecast are lows in the sixties, and really, that's the main thing. One expects hot temperatures in July. It's the 80-degree lows that are so awful.
High dew points & lots of heat = miserable times here in Mipple City. My weather station is sending 99º & a 81º dew point. That's a heat index of 119º, ouch!
At least your state government is back in business -- cheers! Now if we can just get this "heat dome" to move its shiny hiney out to sea, we'd all be a lot more comfortable. I heard somewhere that a town in MN was the most tropical spot on the planet this week...that's just not right! (Fred commented that Frostbite Falls might have to get itself a new name, at this rate
