whatever man. its gonna rain here saturday.

it is hot though. enough so that there have been several fires around here recently. one in someones flat and another in someones bin which just went up like a box of matches. only problem being it was right nexy to a very dried out and tinder dry plant that was growing all the way up the side of the building. an inferno was narrowly avoided.

Thats what kills me, is when people overly complain about things like the heat. I'm not saying anyone here does it, but, i think about 50, 60 , 75 years ago when the summer came, people just knew it was gonna be hot and they didn't bitch about it, they accepted that during this peroid of time it would be very hot and sometimes uncomfortable. Now, people have a seizure if it over 30 degrees and they whine about the a/c only being to hot at 24 or 25 degrees. I know that sometimes we are all guilty of this and thats just natural, but its the folks who day in and day out only bitch and moan about these trivialities of life. Oh and by the way the temperature inside the shop I work in last week was 41 degress and the heat index made that feel like 42-43. It is very incomfortable, but it makes me appreciate a/c, swimming pools, shade, and ice cold pints of beer all the moreso.

The one small mercy at the moment is that at night it's going slightly cooler. Last week it was just relentless heat, 24 hours a day.

I'll be up on Bidston Hill this evening, could be a nice breeze.

Tokolosh 07.26.2006 07:57 AM

Don't get me wrong. I love the heat, but I need to be near water.

Well, there are people who just moan whatever the weather, and they're a pain in the arse. I'm very happy with spring, autumn and winter - I guarantee you will get no complaints about the cold!

Everyone in England is moaning because we are genuinely not used to this level of heat, especially for more than one or two days a year. It's something of a freak occurrence. I can't imagine what 41 degrees must feel like, and I don't want to.

Love.

Yeah, that's true. The oldies are gonna start to shrivel up and die... soon.

I don't recall soliciting the opinion of anyone with a ray of sunshine coming out their ass.

Heard. Yeah, I wouldn't want to imagine what that would feel like either if I didn't have to. I feel bad for you UK'ers, because like you said, you aren't use to this type of heat, where I live it gets REALLY hot in the summer and REALLY cold in the winter, so we get a nice dose of the extreme's. The thing that gets me about the heat here is the humidity. People in the desert states of the USA often have temps. into the 38-43 mark, BUT the humidity is so low that it feels like 30-34. Here it is the opposite.

Savage Clone 07.26.2006 08:10 AM

Oh yes, the weather makes me appreciate so much.
Kinda like how mosquito bites are fun to scratch and oh, so satisfying.

northern europeans like me have every right to complain about the hot weather, just like brazilians are allowed to complain about the cold when the temparature drops below 10C.

Your recollection as well as your timing are both tardy, tiresome, and still longed for greatly by me.

50, 60 , 75 years ago when the summer came, there was a lot less heat-generating equipment in offices and houses, so it was possible to take refuge indoors when the heat hit its peak. On any average day now we don't notice the heat given off by computers, TVs, fridges, etc, but on hot days it is noticeable because it means that there is nowhere to escape from the heat.

Hey brother, complain all you want, more power to you, just don't let the whining define you. Hehe, just kidding, I sympathize with you my friend, and may the gusts of cool wind find their place crashing against your face. Wow that was extremely corny, anyway...yeah you have a point, fair enough.

That was almost poetic.
Almost.
