You weak cave dwelling Northerners should take a trip to Phoenix AZ right about now.  Well see how you like 53 degrees C.  :)

My apartment building here in LA was purchased by a guy from Chicago last year.  He immediately installed air conditioning.  It\'s such a stupid waste of money.  There are only about 3-4 days a year when I might even consider turning on the AC, yet he has his running for 7 continuous months.  It\'s hilarious.

Las Vegas\' heat is slightly overrated. It\'s just dry heat. You live here for about a year and you get used to it, nothing bad.

Anders Celsius (1701-1744).


0 = water freezes
100 = water boils

Very easy to understand, thank you Anders! ;)

A while a go we used to call celcuis "centigrade", now it seems we have reverted back to celcius again. Very strange.

Heat is not really a problem, its the humidity mixed with it.

Like, in Brisbane, an average Summers day would be like 33 C, but that same 33 C feels so different if the day is really really humid.

I cannot imagine living where it gets up to 50 C... That is CRAZY.

I get confused by celsius... For instance, if the weatherman says
it\'s gonna be 75, I know it will be nice and comfortable, while 80 is
starting to get a little hot. That\'s probably only 1 degree difference in C!

Now don\'t start correcting my math, \'cos I didn\'t even try. :p

Can\'t we all just get along? ;) besides, it sounds much more impressive
in the winter when it gets 10 degrees below zero here!

32 F > 0 C

76 F > 24 C

80 F > 26 C

2 Degree\'s Chizzy!

Seriously though, its not really hot unless it gets over 35 C/95 F.

F is kinda better cause the numbers are bigger, but C (metric) makes so much more sense.

Why does it make more sense to drive on the right?  It\'s essentially the same, just opposite.
