Beat the heat!

It's nice and cool in a movie theater, so that is where you will find me.

How do you cope with a hot summer day?

I imagine if I were a werewolf, if someone said; "Go jump in a lake" it would sound very inviting!

My room usually can be kept cool with a open window and my ceiling fan, when that fails i'll jump in my pool. :D

Or...stick my head in the refrigerator.

I love the outdoors and all, yet I mainly stay right here inside. Which still gets very hot from the Ohio Humidity!

Having open windows and a fan going generally works for me. If it gets too hot, I take a cool shower. Or a nap -- either one.

No, let me tell you. Ohio gets very wet, sticky, and Humid. People seem amazed the fact Ohio feels so hot, while we're snowed in during winter. Yet man it does!

Heh. I'm just chilling with my AC and fan blasting on me. Besides my mom's room, my room is the coldest in the house. My brothers come and "talk" to me but they really want to feel the cool air. (Their rooms are boiling) :D

Well, at home, central air.

At work,....heh...let me tell you what this guy said to me.

I had a guy walk up to me while I was dropping fuel. He noticed I was sweating like crazy because of the heat. He said. "Doesn't that truck have A/C?" I said..."Yes, in the truck, not out here."

soda? Try Powerade. Or just plain water. A soda is not good to drink when you're hot and thirsty.

Well, I'm usually not hot when I'm drinking the soda, (like now) so it all works out.

I've have previous experience with mild Heat exhaustion, as well as frostbite. I'm a bit more sensitive to extremes in weather. :P

Sometimes I have to wonder if I'm not physically some kind of lizard-people. :P Feh.

Heh, I'm the exact opposite. I once walked home from school in 111F weather. I didn't know until the next day that it was so hot. And without any wind, it has to get down to 30F before I put anything warm on.

I enjoy cold weather compared to hot. I save a lot of money on my electric bill because I don't turn on the heater unless its freezing outside.

Heh, that doesn't happen much. I have 4 computers and a 300W halogen lamp that keep me warm in the winter.

We have four computers at moms, a 1 almost dead laptop, a dead 'puter, and a laptop, time to time Evan's laptop is here.

Yet at Dads we have I beleive over 10 computers around capable of being used atleast pretty well, and probaly a smaller laptop around somewhere.
