Sorry to interrupt with a joke list, of all the bad things I usually get. But this one was new to me, I enjoyed it and thought I would share!
Now.........I won't do this again for a long time, sorry again,

enjoy, we should enjoy our cool spell as temps go the low 90s, many thunderstorms, ruining outdoor weekend plans (hope there are good clouds w sun peeping through, at least). Maybe our temps will even get into the top 80s, but the humidity ought to be very high: showers = 100%.

*The birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.
*The trees are whistling for the dogs.
*The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.
*Hot water now comes out of both taps.
*You can make sun tea instantly.
*You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.
*The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a little chill.
*You discover that in July it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.
*You discover that you can get sunburned through your car window. You
actually burn your hand opening the car door.
*You break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30a.m.
*Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end
up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
*You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
*The potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.
*Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying boiled eggs.
*The cows are giving evaporated milk.
After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Haha
    That was actually quite amusing considering the circumstances across the country.

    The other day I saw a billboard for global warming that said:"Image if it was 20 degrees hotter". I just thought to myself "well that would have been this afternoon", since it was 10PM and it was still 97 degrees out.
