It's

Being from Arizona, I have to pass these along (they can apply to other "hot" states as well)...

It's so hot in Arizona that...

• the birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.
• the potatoes cook underground, and all you have to do to have lunch is to pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.
• 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 can say 113 degrees without fainting.
• you eat hot chilies to cool your mouth off.
• you can make instant sun tea.
• you learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.
• the temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.
• you've experienced condensation on your butt from the hot water in the toilet bowl.
• you would give anything to be able to splash cold water on your face.
• you can attend any function wearing shorts and a tank top.
• The 4 seasons are: tolerable, hot, really hot, and ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!
• you discover that in July, it takes only 2 fingers to drive your car.
• you discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window.
• you notice the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.
• hot water now comes out of both taps.
• it's noon in June, kids are on summer vacation, and not one person is out on the streets.
• you actually burn your hand opening the car door.
• you break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m. before work.
• no one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car or not having air conditioning.
• your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
• you realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
• a sad Arizonan once prayed, "I wish it would rain - not so much for me, cuz I've seen it -- but for my 7-year-old."

Thankfully, today is Ice Cream Soda Day!!!

Wierd. I don’t see her rotating. She move left and right and left and right. What does that mean?

Are you lying on your back?

[BibChr]

Hm; family-hater at FR. Odd.

[Lady Jag]

Is THAT who that is?

[OrioleFan]

My wife’s first cousin works at ASU. I was talking to her one night and she told me how hot it was down there. I made the mistake of saying, “but it’s a dry heat”, and she replied, “so’s a blowtorch!”

[andy58-in-nh]

It looks like Phyllis Diller got herself a new ring.

Well cheating in Photoshop-ImageReady looking at static frame 32 you can convince yourself that you are looking at either her face or the back of her head. Depending on which your brain chooses stepping the frame in either direction confirms your illusion.

"It looks like Phyllis Diller got herself a new ring."

I thought it was James Carville trying his hand at cross-dressing??

[NavySon]

Percy Faith! Yes!

[fredhead]

It ain’t just AZ and FL, either. Here on the VA coast, we have our share of 98/98 days.

They say it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.

PHOOEY!!!! When it’s 100% humidity and snowing at 32 degrees I ain’t sweating!!!!! IT’S THE HEAT!!!

[Lady Jag]

You wouldn’t know what Fang looks like, wouldja?

[fredhead]

Cassettes?? I still have some 45’s!

here’s a song....Junk Food Junkie by Larry Groce

You know I love that organic cooking
I always ask for more
And they call me Mr. Natural
On down to the health food store
I only eat good sea salt
White sugar don’t touch my lips
And my friends is always
Begging me to take them
On macrobiotic trips
Yes, they are
Oh, but at night I stake out my strongbox
That I keep under lock and key
And I take it off to my closet
Where nobody else can see
I open that door so slowly
Take a peek up north and south
Then I pull out a Hostess Twinkie
And I pop it in my mouth
Yeah, in the daytime I’m Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I’m a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me

Well, at lunchtime
You can always find me
At the Whole Earth Vitamin Bar
Just sucking on my plain white yogurt
From my hand thrown pottery jar
And sippin’ a little hand pressed cider
With a carrot stick for dessert
And wiping my face
In a natural way
On the sleeve of my peasant shirt
Oh yeah
Ah, but when that clock strikes midnight
And I’m all by myself
I work that combination
On my secret hideaway shelf
And I pull out some Fritos corn chips
Dr. Pepper and an Ole Moon Pie
Then I sit back in glorious expectation
Of a genuine junk food high
Oh yeah, in the daytime I’m Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I’m a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me

My friends down at the commune
They think I’m pretty neat
Oh, I don’t know nothing about arts and crafts
But I give ‘em all something to eat
I’m a friend to old Euell Gibbons
And I only eat homegrown spice
I got a John Keats autographed Grecian urn
Filled up with my brown rice
Yes, I do
Oh, but folks lately I have been spotted
With a Big Mac on my breath
Stumbling into a Colonel Sanders
With a face as white as death
I’m afraid someday they’ll find me
Just stretched out on my bed
With a handful of Pringles Potato Chips
And a Ding Dong by my head
In the daytime I’m Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I’m a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me

[CougarGA7]

Quite the accusation there Bib. Care to back that up?

[andy58-in-nh]

You’re right: it does kinda look like “Captain Cueball” Carville. And he’s been playing around in Mary’s makeup case...

[BibChr]

Just following the thread. You?

[envisio]

BETTER....
