It's so hot I sweat just lookin' at a leather jacket.

A horse stopped by and offered me his hide for free...

Put a fan in the closet to keep the hides from sweatin

No leather for me lessen I get a leather speedo for swimmin.

Heatwave here in the UK as well.
Sitting in the shade , sipping some ice-cold Pimm's , watching the Open golf on the TV ,
whilst listening the the Lords test match (that's cricket to you stateside) on my iphone .
The only leather on my mind is that covering the cricket ball that's currently bowling out the Aussies..

Going to hit 96 F. here today or higher ,but with the heat index the "feel like "temp is suppose to be 105 F.

All I can say is that it beats the hell out of a snowstorm !

The chickens are laying hard-boiled eggs!
We've been 90º-102º for the last two weeks - so far, eggs not hard boiled, but the girls are pretty quiet. Luckily they've got shade and lots of water. I put my jackets in the closet. I can't stand the thought of them right now lol

We've been between 95 and 112 for the past three weeks. 105 today and 107 tomorrow before we cool down to mid to upper nineties for probably the rest of the summer. It's just another typical summer around here.
:D

Don't listen to them Worf I think you'd look very good in some leather speedos.

And I'll bet Sloane and Edward agree lol

Give me -40C over +40C any day. At least I can do something about that - and wear an extra layer. And -40C makes me feel alive, you know? It shocks the system and it's all a bit exciting (plus I get to wear the gear that suits me best, I think) ...
But this?!? It's the wretched humidity! I just wilt and fade in a state of sweating torpor - nothing exciting about it - and nothing to do except forgo style for function and break out the Crocs and the After Bite for where the mosquitoes have got me.

I'd've been useless fighting in the steaming jungles of Vietnam or Burma, me. Or the baking desert in North Africa. Poor buggers, the lot of them. As if fighting an enemy who's trying to kill you wasn't enough to contend with ... I take my hat off to them all.

Most of my business associates in England don't have Air conditioning typically, so they are melting.
Sorry guys. But, we are having a mild summer, with lots of rain here in Tennessee. I can't complain about the daily thunderstorms.
