"It's so hot out...." :af: Go ahead- "how hot is it?" :af: Today my convertible was sitting in the driveway, covered, and evidently the gas tank expanded in the hot sun and sprung a leak!!! :af: You know, one of those unplanned repairs that you have to fix right away, even if you can't afford it? :af: :spank: :af: Ahh Good times..........
sprung a leak, or leaked out of the top with the expanding gas. A lot of the older cars have holes for lines that are long gone. If I fill up when it's cool and it sits in the sun the gas will expand enough to leak out one of the holes (Which I have plugged)
It's so hot out that one of my milk jugs full of used motor oil sprung a leak.... It's so hot out that the engine stand is sinking down into the blacktop... It's so hot out that I am staying in the house at night and not going out into the garage!! :ball:
Before you complain about the heat remember you never have to shovel hot! Unlike that cold white #@%*!
That`s a good one :laugh: Damn hot here also.I will translate from metric... 95*F and with the humidex 118*F Could be worse,I could be stuck in the traffic with the GS (no a.c)!! Later,Tony.
Copperhead can back me up on this- too damn hot/ humid today!!! Figure while the baby's asleep in the A/C, I might as well spend a few hours shoveling dirt around the back yard. Stopped when I hallucinated Snoopy flying on his doghouse ou: I believe I have had enough sun for today :TU:
True story: one of the kids tried frying an egg outside today. From the time she cracked the egg into an (unheated) iron skillet until tastefully fried (yolk firm but not runny): 15 minutes. I kid you not.... K
It's so hot that....... The birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground. Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs. The cows are giving evaporated milk. The trees are whistling for the dogs. You no longer associate bridges (or rivers) with water. You eat hot chilies to cool your mouth off. You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron. The temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly. You can attend any function wearing shorts and a tank top. Hot water now comes out of both taps. You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m
Car I drove to work yesterday had one piece of metal for the seat belt, no plastic surround or anything. 9 Hours in the sun=blister for putting on my seat belt. :rant:
Dad's favorite... It's hotter than a $2 pistol!! It ain't too bad here today. Only hit around 101*. Heat index only hit around 106*. The real fun begins when I go to work at 11PM. You see, I am a boiler operater and it gets near 130 in there on a regular basis, but at least the humidity is only around 60%!!! ou: I try not to spend too much time in there. The forecast for tomorrow is for near 80* high temp. If you don't like the weather in Nebraska, wait a minute, it'll change.
