107F seemed hot to me, until I lived in Bahrain for a year. I would have given just about anything for a day that cool in the summer! Nothing like a 140F day to make you appreciate a 100F night!
Todd Green that sounds hellish. No official weather reading has ever been that high on Earth though. I grew up in the desert, not far from the world-record hottest spot, actually. Have been in 120 plenty of times but not 140. If you measure in the sunlight though, I'm sure I believe you experienced 140. Official readings are taken under a shade. Also, if you measure the ground instead or measured the inside of a closed up car, I'd believe 180. Have successfully fried egg on the ground. Hellish, nonetheless.
Bryce Miller you are technically correct! I was referring to the heat index, actually (how it feels). The shade temperature was about 50C+ (~ 120F) with 99.9% humidity. Breathing was painful, like a sauna that is just stuck in the on position! Bahrain in the late 1990's ;-)
It is difficult to believe or even imagine without being there. It is oppressive. There is no escape! You can only hide indoors in the AC for so long! But also valuable. Nowhere feels hot now. 100F with low humidity? Slightly uncomfortable warmth. All experience is relative!
Of the two of them, we now know which one Vlad "the Mad" Putin believes is the girl in their relationship. For a "macho macho man" like #DonaldTrump that's going to hurt. #TrumpNation http://www.denverpost.com/2017/09/05/vladmir-putin-donald-trump/
So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me. Am I the only one who thinks so? So far I have only blocked people who have overtly spammed a thr...

Yes, wear the leather and sweat a pound or two away!
