How warm do you want it?

Postby PaulC » Fri Jan 20, 2006 6:06 pm

The last two days over here have been 105F and 107F and 109F forecast for today. Anybody wishing to get away from their winter is more than welcome to come visit :shock: :shock:
Cheers
Paul.

No thanks, Paul. When it hits 70 degrees I start sweating! I hate the heat. I really suffer here in Oklahoma in the summer when it starts getting up into the triple digits. I handle below zero temps better than the heat! So just enjoy your heat. I'll go back to Duluth, MN before I head to Australia. But it was nice of you to offer. :lol:
Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

Global warming will soon have Alaska up to those temps...I'm thinking I'll wait for the ice caps to melt, the oceans to rise, and I'll have ocean front property!

Paul - Since it's 140 degrees cooler here today, spending a couple of weeks by the ocean sounds pretty good! Fred :snow

Well - guess I'll stoke up the steambath, help warm the Arctic, contribute to Dave's property value and watch the Northern Lights instead. 8)

Interesting read here...

Looks like forests are major contributors to greenhouse gases, not to mention ozone.

Hmmm... Wonder if there is any chance in getting them to the sign off on the Kyoto Treaty. ;)

Paul, Is it a dry heat or a humid heat? I don't mind the dry heat but I wither away in the humidity.
Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? Ask yourself these simple questions every time you are in doubt about any action.

Our power bill is going to be $> .

Pedaal, There is no way I could tolerate that (or worse) type of cold.
