It’s so hot…
The heat, no doubt, is getting to all of us. Relief might come Saturday, when forecasters suggest daytime high temperatures will fall back into the 80s. We’ll probably need jackets.
In the meantime, how about a little levity?
I invite you to use fiction or nonfiction to complete this sentence.
“It’s so hot…”
Here, I’ll give you two examples.
First, a true one:
“It’s so hot out that I offered to put the fan on the deck so we could enjoy sitting out there, but my wife still wouldn’t budge from our air-conditioned living room.”
Now, a fictional one:
“It’s so hot that our refrigerator’s freezer stopped making ice cubes.”
Let’s see your creativity, readers! (Don’t try to tell me the heat turned your brains to mush!)

Truth, I tried to bake cookies in my car window yesterday. They got soft and melted, but never really were done.
For my joke:
It is so hot that chickens are laying fried eggs.

Thirdeye- I agree on Quotes comments.
I believe they shut it down on him.
I think give them a chance but still shut it down at 12 for a year and maybe the riff raff will go away. Habit- take 30 days to get rid of it. No liquer for more than a week though. The fine should be a month with out alcohol sales. The files were deltes that is obvoius!

Greg, you seek responses for your editorial on Quotes bar and then disable the comments.
Is an empty building better or worse than one occupied by scoflaws?

NVgrf: "It's not the heat, it's the humidity," as Wisconsinites so often say. We also are known to say, "If you don't like the weather, wait 24 hours."
Well, I'm waiting...waiting...
I'm still amazed at how many folks, when I travel around the country and tell them I'm from Wisconsin, think first of cold weather. We could use some of that "frozen tundra" right now to chill our toes!

Hot is a relative term, Greg. The average temp where I live is 109 this time of the year. Cold is relative too. When it gets all the way down to the mid 50s in the dead of winter, we pile on the sweaters and jackets.
