People in Arizona laugh at England’s “heat wave”.

“What’s a hose pipe?”

A garden hose. They also tax it (a “hose pipe tax”)

Yeah, I could wish for a high in the mid-90s this time of year. But it’s a dry heat (well, not so much when the monsoon gets going).

Before the days of MASS ADHD and Autism...when you were actually disciplined for bad behavior.

Poor Evelyn Gullo...they forget her in the locker rooms...and it took a while to figure out where she was.

Have they started with the hottest summer ever crapola yet?

When heatwaves hit the UK, many people compare them to the extraordinary summer of 1976. That year still holds the record for the longest-lasting heatwave in the UK—16 consecutive days—and the highest June temperature ever recorded: 35.6C in Southampton.

God: I want you to build an ark.

Noah: Right ... What’s an ark?

God: Get some wood and build it 300 cubits by 80 cubits by 40 cubits.

Noah: Right ... What’s a cubit?
