Mornin' Gents.  Glad you're getting rain, Skip.  Even after all we received, we could use some occasional showers here now.  Starting this weekend we're supposed to be in the hundreds for a while.  Can't complain too much, it's been a few years since we went through the end of June w/o 100*, but that doesn't make it any more fun when it arrives.  The dog days are here.

Never again.  No GM anything, unless it's from the Sixties. 

 





I just can't stand GM given they were bailed out by Obama.....sorry you took a tax payer bailout at the direction of Obama. Never again after that.

Mornin' Gents.  We had a gully washer here last night.  It rained over an inch in less than an hour.  Complete with a lot of lightning, hail, and wind.  We needed the shower.  Unfortunately, it looks like that might have been spring's last gasp:

There is an old bag in the office that feels the need to put a water bottle on the thermostat here in an attempt to jack up the temperature Loco Apparently 78 degrees is her comfort zone. Sorry, not going to fly on my watch.

I don't blame you.  My wife complains when I set the thermostat at 72*.  That is the absolute high temperature at my house in the summer.  period.  You should go behind her swap out the cold water with a cup of hot coffee.

Mornin comradesCoffeeCrutch

Just spent 4 days, sun up to sun set, on a bucking backhoe. The temps were in the 90s, and the humidity was high. Sunday I moved 54 60lb. bags of Sackcrete, twice. I was sweating so bad, that some of the bags started to set up.
A friend of mine came up Saturday and did more on that backhoe in 1 hour than I did in 4. He's a heavy equipment operator and job boss for his company. I learned a few things from him that sped my work up, but he was amazing.
Other than needing some rock spread, and some shovel work, the drive is done (until the next frog choking, duck drowning, gully washer).
Oh, and the only thing that doesn't hurt on me is my hair, and teethBig Grin
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

My truck thermometer was showing 100 the other day here in Waco and 97 yesterday. We had no rain this week and I haven't been listening to Dallas radio and didn't know about any rain last night up there. 

So far this has been an incredibly COOL spring and beginning of summer!  It's almost JULY!!  

If you live outside all day, you get used to the heat.  If you're in and out of air conditioning all day, it feels hot.

I grew up without AC my entire life. Once you get it, you'll never voluntarily live without it again haha. 

But honestly it's very strange that the few people who complain about it being cold (when AC is set to 72 here) are all over 50. The vast majority of the folks here are sweating our asses off because a few cronies refuse to wear a long sleeve shirt or light jacket......Just pisses me off. Minorities win again!!!!

It's actually a frozen solid ice bottle.....I'd love to go hardcore WWE to the head, but then I'd be in jail for attempted murder with a legitimate deadly weapon. Hammer Hit

Last part is very true. I got acclimated to the heat in Iraq and surrounding areas a hellova lot quicker than I do here in most of the states. And from a temp standpoint it is far warmer over there. Rather have 125-130 of bone dry heat than 100 with 100% humidity. Every time.
